Particle Physicists Detect ‘Magic’ at the Large Hadron Collider | Quanta Magazine

The supercollider is now being used to explore quantum phenomena, including a “magic” form of quantum entanglement.

Ninety million times a year, when protons crash together at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), they produce, in their wreckage, a top quark and an anti-top quark, the heaviest known elementary particles. In the trillionth of a trillionth of a second before the particles decay into lighter pieces, they fly apart. But they remain quantum mechanically entangled, meaning each particle’s state depends on…
