The robin flies with quantum coherence

News: Quantum Physics    January 24, 2011
The quantum coherent robin red-breast…….Credit: NWFS In a sense most science and technology news is made up of tidbits, bits and pieces of research. Some of the tidbits are choice morsels, others are insight resistant gristle, and perhaps even more are pure confection. What’s generally missing in the news is how (or if) the tidbit [...]

Confirmation: Quantum entanglement in photosynthesis

News: Quantum Physics    May 12, 2010
The discovery that every-day, ‘normal temperature’, biological systems – plants – use quantum effects in the process of photosynthesis has been advancing for several years. For physicists and biologists this is becoming something of a revelation. Physicists in particular, accustomed to observing quantum effects only at extreme cold (approaching absolute zero), find the idea that [...]
