Blog - Physicists Build A Memory That Stores Entanglement
Is everything in the universe made up of vibrating one-dimensional strings? For the first time, scientists think they can concretely test string theory, the mind-blowing "theory of everything" that has dominated physics for the past two decades. It turns out that string theory predicts the behavior of entangled quantum particles, which can be tested in a lab - therefore testing string theory. String theory elegantly reconciles the otherwise competing rules of quantum mechanics and general relativity. It's the most widely accepted unified field theory, but it remains controversial. It basically posits that electrons and quarks are not objects, but one-dimensional strings, whose oscillation gives them their observed qualities. The most fun element of string theory is the requirement that the universe has about a dozen dimensions, rather than the usual four (length, width, height and time). M-theory, the dominant version of string theory, holds that the universe is made up of unfathomably small slices of a 2-di
