minus-squareA_A@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up7·2 months agoThanks for this nice explanation. Also, I would underline some of the requirements of the setup : … “the experiment requires long coherence times, torsion pendulums that lose little energy as they oscillate, and an ultracold environment.” …
