ScienceStanford scientists reportedly observe quantum jumps in sound
A user sharing a Stanford article says the team built a device that takes hundreds of measurements within two milliseconds to pinpoint a quantum jump.

A post sharing a Stanford article says scientists confirmed the long-predicted ability of phonons—the quantum units of sound—to suddenly change energy levels. It describes a device that pinpoints these jumps by taking hundreds of measurements within two milliseconds, and points to implications for quantum computing, sensing and everyday technologies such as smartphones.
