Description
In the cascade of debris that sprays out from high-energy collisions in the world's most powerful particle collider, physicists have found strong evidence of a phenomenon Albert Einstein famously called "spooky action at a distance". It's not the first time quantum entanglement has been detected at the LHC – but this time, it's somewhere new. Now, scientists have found the first strong evidence of entanglement between a pair of Z bosons produced in the decay of a Higgs boson – their spins so inextricably linked that one cannot be fully described without the other.
