Here's a love story at the smallest scales imaginable: particles of light. It is possible to have particles that are so intimately linked that a change to one affects the other, even when they are separated at a distance.

(Phys.org)—A team of researchers at Harvard University has developed a way to measure entanglement entropy in many-body systems. In their paper published in the journal Nature, the team describes the technique they used ...
Researchers from the Centre for Quantum Technologies (CQT) at the National University of Singapore and the University of Seville in Spain have reported the most extreme 'entanglement' between pairs of photons ever seen in ...
