TL;DR Summary

Researchers at the University of Chicago have successfully demonstrated the quantum properties of phonons, quantum particles that transmit sound, by "splitting" them into a quantum superposition and creating interference between two phonons. This breakthrough could lead to the development of a new type of quantum computer, a linear mechanical quantum computer, which could perform unique calculations. The team's experiments are the first of their kind and could pave the way for further advances in computing.
