Collective measurements can project a system into an entangled state with enhanced sensitivity for measuring a quantum phase, but measurement back-action has limited previous efforts to only modest improvements. Here we use a collective…
It is shown that the addition of a single chiral symmetry breaking term to the standard omega meson variant of the nuclear Skyrme model can reproduce the proton-neutron mass difference.
