Hydrogen atoms and the hidden wormholes of entanglement (opens in new tab)

The idea sounds almost like science fiction: two tiny particles that are quantum mechanically linked might also be connected by microscopic shortcuts through spacetime itself, tiny wormholes. This possibility, known as the ER = EPR conjecture, has become a serious topic at the frontier where quantum mechanics meets gravity. The entanglement-is-just-a-wormhole idea The initials point […] The post appeared first on .
