What is quantum synchronization?

[Danny Boy]

Can someone provide a clear basic description or reference to how the phenomena of synchronization manifests at the quantum scale?

Thanks.

You mean like how coupled oscillators tend to move together?

The oscillations, described by solutions of a quantum harmonic oscillator are bosons. And so they exhibit bose enhancement: they want to be in the same mode.

A nice consequence of this is that it facilitates the formation of BEC's.

Okay thanks for your response. What would be a simple experimental quantum analogy to the classical synchronization as seen in this video?
