Chapter 256 Schrödinger’s Cat Quantum Coherent State

Jinling, Academy of Sciences, Qubit Research Laboratory!

There are more than a dozen people sitting in the research room, and everyone is working intensively on the qubit part.

This is just one of the research laboratories. There are dozens of qubit research laboratories in the Institute of Science.

From time to time, people get together to discuss the research part.

Ye Fei was sitting by the window, also studying qubits.

He has been back from the National Quantum Research Center for two days.

He did not tell everyone about Beili's quantum computer research.

Even if you say it, it will only increase everyone's psychological pressure.

So, it’s better not to say anything.

Ye Fei looked at the calculation content in front of him and thought to himself: "Particles are orderly and controllable, so single quantum particles, two particles and three particle systems in the quantum state can strongly affect other particles in this area."

The particle world is like the universe, and every particle is like a planet.

The particles that have been discovered now are equivalent to the planets that have been discovered in the universe.

Undiscovered particles are equivalent to undiscovered planets in the universe.

There will be influences between planets.

For example, the sun has an influence on the earth, and the earth has an influence on the moon.

The same is true between particles.

Particles can also influence each other.

"Qubits exist in multiple states, 0, 1 and 2."

"They exist randomly in one of the states."

"But..." Ye Fei's eyes shone, and he was a little excited: "That's what I said before, since the particles are orderly and controllable."

"Then the existence of qubits in states is not random."

"It's something that's known and controllable."

"Since the qubit is controllable in three states, it can partially prove a very famous research in the physics world."

"Schrodinger's cat!"

“Schrödinger’s cat is about keeping a cat in an airtight container with a small amount of radium and cyanide.”

"There is a chance of radium decaying. If radium decays, it will trigger the mechanism to break the bottle containing cyanide, and the cat will die."

"If the radium did not decay, the cat would survive."

"According to the theory of quantum mechanics, since radioactive radium is in a superposition of two states: decay and non-decay, cats should be in a superposition of dead cats and alive cats."

"This cat that is both dead and alive is the so-called Schrödinger's cat."

"From the qubit, the cat's death is 0, and the cat's survival is 1."

"According to the principle that particles are ordered and controllable, if you want the cat to die, it will die, if you want the cat to live, it will live, and you can even want the cat to resurrect from the dead."

Although this sounds very fantasy, in reality, it is impossible to bring a cat back from the dead.

But this is science, and in the scientific world, cats can be brought back from the dead.

"Of course, this is just a concept."

"Resurrecting a cat from the dead only proves part of Schrödinger's cat research."

"There is still a long way to go to prove all the problems of this century."

Schrödinger's cat is a quantum research that has a great impact on many fields of quantum.

If Schrödinger's cat is proven, then humans can control the decay of particles and prove the existence of quantum superposition states.

In layman's terms, the role of quantum superposition is to allow two things that are far apart to move instantaneously.

It's teleportation, not movement.

Teleportation, there is no time for two things to move.

For example, at nine o'clock in the morning, when A moves to B, the time is still nine o'clock in the morning.

The distance between A and B is the distance from the North Pole to the South Pole, or further.

If quantum superposition is mastered, humans can be used in many fields.

It is even possible that a person can go from the North Pole to the South Pole in just a matter of seconds.

Ye Feixin said: "Now I should prove part of Schrödinger's cat, which will be more conducive to the research of quantum computers."

The corner of Ye Fei's mouth raised slightly: "I can find that particles are orderly and controllable. Beili Guo probably hasn't discovered it yet!"

"Then the performance of the quantum computer they developed is definitely not as good as ours."

"Since we are developing quantum computers, we must develop the best ones."

"The quantum computer that we strive to develop will make it impossible for Beili to catch up for decades."

After thinking for a moment, Ye Feidao said: "Schrödinger's cat? I don't have a very deep research on this. I should find some famous domestic physicists to study it."

Half a month later!

The gate of the Institute of Science!

Ye Fei stood straight at the gate, as if waiting for someone.

After a while, a minibus stopped at the gate, and then a group of people got off, led by a middle-aged man wearing a black tunic suit.

Ye Fei walked forward with a smile, stretched out his hand from a distance and said: "Academician Pan, welcome to the Academy of Sciences!"

Academician Pan smiled and shook hands with Ye Fei and said, "Academician Ye, I have long admired your name!"

Ye Fei smiled and said: "I have also been admiring you for a long time!"

Academician Pan, whose full name is Pan Jianlei, is the father of Xia Guo Quantum.

Mainly engaged in research on quantum optics, quantum information and quantum mechanical technical problem examination.

Vice president of Xiaguo University of Science and Technology, academician of both the Academy of Sciences and the Academy of Engineering.

Ye Fei asked the Department of Science and Technology for a group of quantum physicists half a month ago.

Therefore, the Department of Science and Technology sent Fan Jianlei and some quantum physicists.

Academician Pan smiled and said: "Academician Ye, we ask you to take good care of us."

"Where!" Ye Fei smiled and said, "Let's help each other!"

Ye Fei looked at the other physicists and said with a smile: "Everyone, please feel free to come to my place and treat this place as your home."

"I would like to ask for your help in the coming days, thank you very much."

"Academician Ye, I'm sorry to bother you."

Ye Fei said: "Let's go, I will take you to dinner."

Ye Fei did not take them to the hotel, but just had a meal in the cafeteria.

Everyone is not short of money or status, and there is no delicacy that we haven’t tasted before!

In the afternoon, Ye Fei arranged for all of them to stay in a room, where they would do their next research.

Ye Fei stood in front of the blackboard and wrote a bunch of formulas on it.

All the physicists were sitting on the stools below, curiously looking at what Ye Fei wrote.

After a while, Ye Fei put down his pen, turned to face the crowd and said, "Everyone, I went to the National Quantum Research Center some time ago and did a small experiment there."

Ye Fei pointed to the formula on the blackboard and said: "Through this formula, we found using a particle accelerator that particles are orderly and controllable."

In an instant, it was quiet down below, and everyone looked at Ye Fei in shock.

After a while, Academician Pan smiled dryly and said: "Academician Ye, are you right? Particles are orderly and controllable?"

Academician Pan has studied quantum science for decades and has never heard that particles are ordered and controllable.

Particle disorder is common sense in physics, and no one refutes it.

As for particles being controllable, this is even more nonsense.

Ye Feidao: "I'm right, particles are orderly and controllable."

In an instant, everyone below shook their heads.

They still can't believe it's true.

Particle disorder is a common sense problem, but now someone tells them that particles are ordered and controllable.

It's as if one day someone told them that water flows backwards, soil can be eaten, and people can fly.

Ye Fei looked at everyone and didn't believe it. He knew that if he didn't see it with his own eyes, no one would believe it.

Ye Feidao: "I know you don't believe it, but please believe me, this is true."

"There's no way I could deceive you about this, and I have no reason to deceive you."

After everyone thought about it, it seemed so.

However, they still do not believe that particles are orderly and controllable.

However, intellectually speaking, it was impossible for Ye Fei to deceive them.

There is no benefit to Ye Fei from lying to them.

But reason tells them that particles are indeed disordered and uncontrollable.

Both ideas seemed right to them, but both ideas were opposite.

For a moment, they didn't know which idea to believe.

Academician Pan took a breath and said: "Academician Ye, we know you can't lie to us. However, particles are orderly and controllable. How is this possible?"

"This is completely impossible!"

Ye Fei shook his head helplessly and said, "Okay, then I'll find someone to tell you!"

After speaking, Ye Fei took out his mobile phone and called Academician Yang from the National Quantum Research Center.

The call was quickly connected. After Ye Fei explained the situation, he added Academician Yang's WeChat account and connected to the WeChat video.

Academician Yang stood next to the small particle accelerator and said: "I will verify Academician Ye's statement now, and you will know after reading it."

Everyone nodded. They all knew Academician Yang. When they did experiments in the past, they often used small particle accelerators, and they also knew Academician Yang.

Ten minutes later, the video shows changes in particles on the screen of a small particle accelerator.

Everyone's eyes widened in surprise and they murmured to themselves: "This is actually true!"

Seeing everyone's surprised expressions, Ye Fei smiled slightly.

Ye Feidao: "Everyone, please believe it now!"

Everyone looked at Ye Fei blankly.

Academician Pan asked: "Academician Ye, how did you do it?"

Ye Fei pointed to the formulas on the blackboard and said, "These are the formulas."

Everyone took a deep breath, this was really shocking.

Particle disorder is common knowledge in the physics world, but today Ye Fei broke this attempt.

If the particles are ordered, they can indeed be controlled.

This can also explain why Ye Fei said that particles are controllable.

Many people had a gleam in their eyes.

If particles are orderly and controllable, then many studies and proofs in physics can be solved.

Everyone clenched their fists in excitement.

They didn't expect to encounter such a big surprise when they came here.

After a long time, when everyone calmed down, Ye Feidao said: "As we all know, particles are orderly and controllable, which can help quantum states..."

Ye Fei talked a lot, and finally said: "I seconded you here because I want to ask you to help me prove some of the problems about Schrödinger's cat, and then help me complete the theoretical research on quantum computers."

Academician Pan nodded and said solemnly: "If the particles are orderly and controllable, it will indeed be of great help in proving Schrödinger's cat."

The others also nodded.

Ye Feidao: "I will explain next how this mathematical formula makes understanding orderly and controllable."

Everyone nodded, feeling very happy.

They are all looking forward to formulas that can make particles orderly and controllable.

If they learn it, it will also be of great help to them in many of their own studies.

In the next few days, Ye Fei explained the formula to them.

After the explanation, they began to prove Schrödinger's cat.

Academician Pan said: "Academician Ye wants to prove Schrödinger's cat and then help quantum computers."

"So, my suggestion is to start with quantum coherent states."

Quantum coherent state is an issue that physicists have focused on since the birth of quantum theory.

Academician Pan said: "The double-slit interference phenomenon is the most typical quantum interference phenomenon."

"In the interference experiment, if particles are connected through two adjacent slits on the partition..."

"..."

"The physics community hopes to explore the nature of decoherence by studying the changes in quantum coherence in the process from microscopic objects to macroscopic objects."

"..."

"The tardigrade is very tenacious, so tenacious that it can survive being exposed in outer space for several days."

"If it is placed in an ultra-high vacuum experimental environment, it can remain viable, thereby meeting people's research requirements on the quantum superposition state of living organisms."

"If this experiment is successful, it will be possible to prepare a quantum superposition state that is very similar to Schrödinger's cat."

"But now Academician Ye can make the particles orderly and controllable."

"Then there would be no need for the tardigrade experiment."

"It is completely possible to experimentally prepare a quantum superposition state that is very close to Schrödinger's cat through the double-slit interference phenomenon of quantum coherent states."

"In this way, use Schrödinger's cat as a springboard."

“It can not only prove qubits, but also prove the principle of state superposition and quantum entanglement.”

"This could significantly speed up research on the theoretical part of quantum computers."

"And, most importantly, quantum coherent states themselves are very useful for quantum computers."

"Without quantum coherent states, quantum computers cannot operate efficiently in parallel."

"So, starting from the quantum coherent state has the advantage of achieving multiple benefits."

Ye Fei's eyes lit up when he heard this.

If it is true as Academician Pan said, starting from the quantum coherent state will indeed have multiple benefits.

Ye Fei was excited: "Sure enough, we are right to find them. Most quantum theory research is physical research."

"They have studied quantum science for many years and have accumulated a lot of experience. They are much better than me, a halfway monk."

Ye Fei smiled and said: "Academician Pan, your idea is really great. I never thought of it before."

Academician Pan smiled and said: "Haha... I also came up with this idea based on your orderliness and controllability of particles."

"Without your particles being ordered and controllable, this idea would not be possible."

The others also nodded.

The particles discovered by Ye Fei are orderly and controllable, which is an earth-shattering event for quantum science.

Ye Fei didn't care. If it were someone else, he might have spread the word to the world and competed for the Nobel Prize in Physics.

"Luck, haha..." Ye Fei laughed and said, "I was also lucky to discover that particles are orderly and controllable."

"Science has no luck!" Academician Pan said seriously: "All scientific research is proof of strength."

"If you don't have the strength, you won't be able to discover things that others can't discover."

"Okay!" Ye Fei didn't want to talk about this topic and said, "Since we are sure to start from the quantum coherent state, let's get started!"

Everyone nodded.

Next, Ye Fei and his team started their research on quantum coherent states.

Quantum coherent state is also called quantum coherence, or the correlation between states.

The quantum coherent state is the state of studying the right spin and left spin of electrons.

Since particles have been found to be ordered and controllable, it is of great help to the study of quantum coherent states.

This can greatly speed up the study of quantum coherent states.

As long as the study of quantum coherent states is successful, quantum superposition states will begin to be established.

After the quantum superposition state was successfully established, qubits, the state superposition principle and quantum entanglement were further proven.

Eight months later!

Ye Fei smiled and said: "Since the quantum superposition state was successfully established, qubits, the superposition state principle and quantum entanglement have quickly proven successful."

"Now only the most important puzzle of quantum computer theory remains."

"The principle of quantum parallelism!"

The principle of quantum parallelism is the most important and difficult part of quantum computer theory.

Ye Fei took a deep breath and said: "Time is faster than I thought. If Academician Pan hadn't proposed starting from the quantum coherent state, the speed would not be so fast."

“The next step is to focus on quantum parallelism principles.”

"Beili Country developed a quantum computer in 2033. At the current speed, we can just catch up with them."

"We'll see who is stronger then!"

Ye Fei's eyes were full of fighting spirit.

If it were before the development of quantum computers, Ye Fei would not have confidence.

But now, Ye Fei is full of confidence.

"The quantum computer developed by Beili Country is definitely not as good as mine."

"After all, I discovered the rules and controllability of particles."

"This is very helpful for quantum computer research."

"To put it bluntly, quantum computers are a demonstration of quantum research."

"Theory is more important than application."

"As long as the theory is good, the quantum computer developed will be even better."

"I don't believe Beili's quantum computer theory can do better than ours."

"Your 5G, Web3.0 and Li-Fi can't beat us, and quantum computers won't beat us either."

"In the field of quantum computers, you can't beat us."

"Then, in the next hundred years, science will lean towards our Xia country."

Quantum computers, 5G, Web3.0, and other technologies are the foundation for building the metaverse.

The Metaverse is a technology that completely changes human living habits. It is greater than the emergence of the steam engine.
