I am trying to understand how it may be possible to maintain two particles in an entangled superposition.

Is this possible or has this already been done?

Your question could be interpreted several ways. No shortage of experiments demonstrating entanglement, if that is your question. If it is more about maintaining it for longer periods of time or over longer distances:

1 hour of entanglement

10 km separation (there has been much longer too, across the Canary Islands)

And by the way, welcome to PhysicsForums!
 
Dear Dr Chinese,

Thank you for the answer, I was trying to find out about entanglement maintained for long periods.

And its great to be here at Physics forum thanks.
 
Not an expert in QM. AFAIK, Schrödinger's equation is quite different from the classical wave equation. The former is an equation for the dynamics of the state of a (quantum?) system, the latter is an equation for the dynamics of a (classical) degree of freedom. As a matter of fact, Schrödinger's equation is first order in time derivatives, while the classical wave equation is second order. But, AFAIK, Schrödinger's equation is a wave equation; only its interpretation makes it non-classical...

Is it possible, and fruitful, to use certain conceptual and technical tools from effective field theory (coarse-graining/integrating-out, power-counting, matching, RG) to think about the relationship between the fundamental (quantum) and the emergent (classical), both to account for the quasi-autonomy of the classical level and to quantify residual quantum corrections? By “emergent,” I mean the following: after integrating out fast/irrelevant quantum degrees of freedom (high-energy modes...
