Theoretical research establishes unified way to quantify vital quantum properties
In recent theoretical research, Ge and collaborators Jiru Liu and M. Suhail Zubairy, members of the Institute for Quantum Science and Engineering at Texas A&M University, explored the relationship between the two fundamental resources to quantum physics. They established a single way to quantify the two properties, defining a mathematical description of each. Their paper, […]
