Quantum experiment shows time emerging from entropy without external clock
Physicist Giovanni Barontini at the University of Birmingham created an isolated quantum system with ~24,000 ultracold atoms.
TLDR
The experiment provides laboratory support for theories in quantum gravity suggesting time is not fundamental but emerges from internal system changes. This bridges quantum mechanics and cosmology, offering empirical evidence for how temporal properties might arise in the universe.
