Hallmarks of quantum mechanics include superposition and entanglement. In the context of large complex systems, these features should lead to situations like Schrodinger's cat, which exists in a superposition of alive and dead states…

The fundamental quantum dynamics of two interacting oscillator systems are studied in two different scenarios. In one case, both oscillators are assumed to be linear, whereas in the second case, one oscillator is linear and the other is a…

The interaction between an atomic ensemble and a light mode in a high-finesse optical cavity can easily reach the strong-coupling regime, where quantum effects dominate. In this regime, the interaction can be used to generate both…

The ability to create and harness entanglement is crucial to the fields of quantum sensing and simulation, and ultracold atom-cavity systems offer pristine platforms for this undertaking. Here, we present a method for creating and…

A recent paper published on Nature [Nature,646,813(2025)] by Aziz and Howl, claims that quantum particles become entangled when they interact gravitationally, even if the gravitational potential is treated classically. We show that the…
