Breakthrough: Quantum Computing Simulates Wormhole Dynamics 🌌

Scientists Use Quantum , Computing to Simulate , Wormhole Dynamics.
Science Alert reports that scientists have successfully
created a quantum computing experiment
designed to study the dynamics of wormholes.
The researchers are searching for shortcuts
through spacetime that could help
dodge relativity's cosmic speed limit.
We found a quantum system that exhibits
key properties of a gravitational wormhole,
yet is sufficiently small to implement
on today's quantum hardware, Maria Spiropulu, Caltech physicist, via Science Alert.
Science Alert points out that the team's work is still
just a simulation, and physicists still don't know the
conditions that could create a traversable wormhole.
The main goal of the research was to work out a concept
known as quantum gravity, which aims to unify the
theories of quantum mechanics with general relativity.
According to Science Alert, one of the main questions
is whether wormhole teleportation works on the same
principles that explain quantum entanglement.
The team's simulation, based on a theoretical framework
known as the Sachdev-Ye-Kitaev model, or SYK, applies the
physics of quantum entanglement to wormhole dynamics. .
The simulation runs on Google's Sycamore
quantum processing chip with assistance
from conventional machine-learning tools. .
The relationship between quantum
entanglement, spacetime, and quantum
gravity is one of the most important
questions in fundamental physics and
an active area of theoretical research, Maria Spiropulu, Caltech physicist, via Science Alert
