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 ... >>

Virtual Solis plans to build large photovoltaic panels in orbit, using Starship to deliver the necessary equipment. However, one of the key challenges ... >>

New method for creating powerful batteries 08.05.2024

With the development of technology and the expanding use of electronics, the issue of creating efficient and safe energy sources is becoming increasingly urgent. Researchers at the University of Queensland have unveiled a new approach to creating high-power zinc-based batteries that could change the landscape of the energy industry. One of the main problems with traditional water-based rechargeable batteries was their low voltage, which limited their use in modern devices. But thanks to a new method developed by scientists, this drawback has been successfully overcome. As part of their research, scientists turned to a special organic compound - catechol. It turned out to be an important component that can improve battery stability and increase its efficiency. This approach has led to a significant increase in the voltage of zinc-ion batteries, making them more competitive. According to scientists, such batteries have several advantages. They have b ... >>

Alcohol content of warm beer 07.05.2024

Beer, as one of the most common alcoholic drinks, has its own unique taste, which can change depending on the temperature of consumption. A new study by an international team of scientists has found that beer temperature has a significant impact on the perception of alcoholic taste. The study, led by materials scientist Lei Jiang, found that at different temperatures, ethanol and water molecules form different types of clusters, which affects the perception of alcoholic taste. At low temperatures, more pyramid-like clusters form, which reduces the pungency of the "ethanol" taste and makes the drink taste less alcoholic. On the contrary, as the temperature increases, the clusters become more chain-like, resulting in a more pronounced alcoholic taste. This explains why the taste of some alcoholic drinks, such as baijiu, can change depending on temperature. The data obtained opens up new prospects for beverage manufacturers, ... >>

Sleep protects against colds 11.09.2015

Sleep is sometimes called the cure for all diseases, and there is a truth to this - lack of sleep weakens our defense systems, so that viruses and bacteria have a good chance to enter the body and gain a foothold in it. However, until now, the beneficial, "health" properties of sleep were based on subjective evidence, when a person himself assessed his condition depending on the "dose of sleep" and reported this to physicians. Such surveys are certainly important, but they are definitely not sufficient for rigorous scientific conclusions.

Aric Prather of the University of California at San Francisco, along with colleagues from Carnegie Mellon University and the University of Pittsburgh, managed to obtain more objective evidence that sleep helps to resist, if not all diseases, then at least the common cold. Over the course of a week, researchers collected sleep data from more than XNUMX people who were given a special wrist device that recorded body movements during sleep; in addition, the participants in the experiment also recorded the time when they went to bed and when they woke up.

Participants were then given a nasal spray containing the rhinovirus that causes colds and put into a hotel where they stayed for five days. Before a person injected a solution of the virus into his nose, a blood test was taken from him to determine the level of already existing antibodies to the infection - it is obvious that if their level was initially high enough (that is, the immune system remembered what to do with a cold), then the disease receded quickly. Those with immune systems already ready to face a cold had to be withdrawn from the study: even if they got sick, they would recover too quickly, and sleep here would hardly have played any significant role in resisting the virus.

Whether infection occurred or not was monitored by external symptoms (runny nose, etc.) and with the help of special tests. For example, a special dye was instilled into the patient's nose and the time it took for it to reach the throat was measured; if it took about 35 minutes, then the airways were noticeably inflamed and swollen, and the disease was therefore on the rise. Along the way, samples of the nasal mucosa were taken, in which the concentration of the virus and antibodies against it were measured.

The likelihood of catching a cold was compared to how long a person sleeps. The quality of sleep was also taken into account here: if the sleep was restless, then in total the sleep time turned out to be less than during a quiet sleep, even if both subjects went to bed and got up at the same time. It turned out that if you sleep less than 5 hours or 5-6 hours at night, then the probability of getting seriously ill with a cold will be 4,5 and 4,2 times higher, respectively, than if you sleep 6-7 hours or more.

Sleep obviously helps the immune system in some way. It can be assumed that sleep helps fight other infections, not just the cold virus, however, more research will be needed to confirm this.
