Briefings

Researchers at Oak Ridge National Laboratory used lasers and neutrons to observe a long-lived quantum state in a magnetic material, enabling study of systems driven far from equilibrium. This breakthrough could advance quantum information science by reducing information loss and improving memory devices.

Key points

• Researchers at Oak Ridge National Laboratory used lasers and neutrons to observe a long-lived quantum state in a magnetic material.
• The study opens a new way to study materials systems driven far from their equilibrium.

Context

Manipulation of quantum magnets is important for advancing quantum information science and could reduce loss of transported information, improve memory devices and benefit other quantum technologies.

Limitations

Evidence is limited to a single article from 2026-11-10. No specific dates, locations, or named individuals are provided. The long-lived state is described as a new observation without further temporal or spatial constraints.
