Large scale entanglement experiment

Click For Summary

Discussion Overview

The discussion centers on a large-scale entanglement experiment, exploring whether larger-scale entanglement experiments have been conducted and the potential applications of such phenomena. The scope includes theoretical implications and practical applications of entanglement in various contexts.

Discussion Character

  • Exploratory, Technical explanation, Debate/contested

Main Points Raised

  • One participant mentions a specific large-scale entanglement experiment and seeks information on larger experiments and their possible uses.
  • Another participant notes that entanglement experiments with Josephson junctions have been conducted and suggests these may be larger than the current experiment, highlighting the mechanical degrees of freedom involved.
  • A request for links to relevant literature is made, with participants sharing several papers related to previous entanglement experiments.
  • One participant expresses interest in the practical applications of entanglement phenomena.

Areas of Agreement / Disagreement

Participants do not reach a consensus on whether larger-scale entanglement experiments exist, and multiple viewpoints regarding the significance and applications of entanglement phenomena are presented.

Contextual Notes

Some claims depend on the definitions of "larger scale" and the specific types of entanglement being discussed, which are not fully resolved in the conversation.

TL;DR
Given below is the research paper and a related video to understand the phenomenon. This experiment is a proof of large scale quantum entanglement can be possible now.
This is the paper and here is the video. As far as I know, this is an entanglement related experiment done so far in such a large scale. I want to know whether entanglement related experiment has been done so far on a larger scale and what can be the possible use of such phenomenons.

Entanglement experiments with Josephson junctions have been done for some time now; those are larger, IIRC, than the drumheads in this experiment.

The interesting part of this experiment is that the degrees of freedom being entangled are mechanical.

Kindly share links here.
 
I am now interested in practical applications about such phenomenon.
