Scientists at the University of Technology Sydney have demonstrated, through detailed modeling, that sending quantum signals from Earth to satellites is feasible, paving the way for unhackable quantum networks, despite previous assumptions that such uplinks were impossible due to stability challenges.
Researchers at Shanghai Jiao Tong University successfully fused two independent quantum networks with 18 users using multi-user entanglement swapping, marking a significant step toward a global quantum internet, though challenges like quantum repeaters remain for larger-scale implementation.
Researchers from Nanjing University and the Max Planck Institute have discovered a simpler method to create quantum entanglement between distant photons using an AI tool called PyTheus. This approach, which avoids traditional methods like Bell-state measurements, relies on the indistinguishability of photon paths to generate entanglement, challenging long-held assumptions in quantum networking. The AI's unexpected solution reduces complexity and resource requirements, potentially advancing quantum communication and information processing.
