Two hundred years after the seeds of entropy were first sown, what’s emerging is a conception of this quantity that’s more opportunistic than nihilistic. The conceptual evolution is upending the old ...

Electron–proton collisions Study reveals importance of entanglement entropy. (Courtesy: Kevin Coughlin/Brookhaven National Laboratory) An international team of physicists has used the principle of ...

We demonstrate the design of low entropy state schemes that increase coherent control in quantum evolution through laser cooling. To do so, we construct an example problem of high impulse lasers that ...
