Quantum Leap in Earth Rotation Measurement: Entangled Photons Outperform Previous Sensors by 1000x

A team led by Philip Walther at the University of Vienna has successfully measured the effect of Earth’s rotation on quantum entangled photons, a significant achievement in the field of quantum mechanics and general relativity. The researchers used a giant optical fiber Sagnac interferometer, a device known for its precision in measuring rotational speeds. The experiment, part of the research network TURIS, confirmed the interaction between rotating reference systems and quantum entanglement, improving precision by a thousand times compared to previous experiments. This could pave the way for future experiments exploring quantum entanglement through spacetime curves.
