Breakthrough battery lets physicists reverse entanglement—and rewrite quantum law

Breakthrough battery lets physicists reverse entanglement—and rewrite quantum law

Just over 200 years after French engineer and physicist Sadi Carnot formulated the second law of thermodynamics, an international team of researchers has unveiled an analogous law for the quantum world. This second law of entanglement manipulation proves that, just like heat or energy in an idealized thermodynamics regime, entanglement can be reversibly manipulated, a statement which until now had been heavily contested.
