Researchers at the University of Innsbruck and the Institute of Quantum Optics and Quantum Information have developed a new approach to study and understand entanglement in quantum materials. By using a quantum simulator with 51 particles, they were able to recreate a real material and observe effects that were previously only described theoretically. The researchers developed a more efficient method to extract entanglement information from large quantum systems with fewer measurements. They used temperature profiles to determine the degree of entanglement, with "hot" particles indicating strong interaction with the environment and "cold" particles indicating weak interaction. This breakthrough opens the door to studying a new class of physical phenomena and testing new theories using quantum simulators.
