The existence of an entropy rule for quantum entanglement has been proven 09.05.2024

Quantum mechanics continues to amaze us with its mysterious phenomena and unexpected discoveries. Recently, Bartosz Regula from the RIKEN Center for Quantum Computing and Ludovico Lamy from the University of Amsterdam presented a new discovery that concerns quantum entanglement and its relation to entropy. Quantum entanglement plays an important role in modern quantum information science and technology. However, the complexity of its structure makes understanding and managing it challenging. Regulus and Lamy's discovery shows that quantum entanglement follows an entropy rule similar to that for classical systems. This discovery opens new perspectives in the field of quantum information science and technology, deepening our understanding of quantum entanglement and its connection to thermodynamics. The results of the study indicate the possibility of reversibility of entanglement transformations, which could greatly simplify their use in various quantum technologies. Opening a new rule ... >>

Another feature of the new series is the ability to search for any object using a tube and a key fob, which can be purchased separately. While searching, the devices emit a sound signal, and the display of the phone shows the distance to the searched object. Up to 4 key fobs can be used at the same time, and each can be assigned a personal name.

Also, all models have an intelligent function that provides quick access to certain phone features that are most relevant to the user at a particular moment.

In addition, the KX-TGHxxxRU series phones are equipped with useful options such as night mode, which allows you to turn off the ringer on the handset for a certain period of time. At the same time, you can set a list of numbers on your phone that are not covered by night mode. Other useful options include a backup power supply that provides temporary operation of the base unit due to the handset batteries, an eco mode and a baby monitor. In addition, the KX-TGH220RU and KX-TGH222RU versions are equipped with a digital answering machine that provides up to 40 minutes of recording.

All models of the series have a built-in address book with a capacity of up to 200 numbers, a set of polyphonic ringtones and the ability to connect up to 6 handsets. The phone's talk time is up to 14 hours and standby time is up to 250 hours.
