  2. Entropy of entanglement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Entropy_of_entanglement

    The entropy of entanglement (or entanglement entropy) is a measure of the degree of quantum entanglement between two subsystems constituting a two-part composite quantum system. Given a pure bipartite quantum state of the composite system, it is possible to obtain a reduced density matrix describing knowledge of the state of a subsystem.

  3. Solar neutrino - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_neutrino

    A solar neutrino is a neutrino originating from nuclear fusion in the Sun's core, and is the most common type of neutrino passing through any source observed on Earth at any particular moment. [ citation needed ] Neutrinos are elementary particles with extremely small rest mass and a neutral electric charge .

  4. Entanglement of formation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Entanglement_of_formation

    Entanglement of formation quantifies how much entanglement (measured in ebits) is necessary, on average, to prepare the state. The measure clearly coincides with entanglement entropy for pure states. It is zero for all separable states and non-zero for all entangled states. By construction, is convex.

    Solar neutrino problem (1968 [119] –2001): Solved by a new understanding of neutrino physics, requiring a modification of the Standard Model of particle physics—specifically, neutrino oscillation. Saturn's core spin was determined from its gravitational field. [120]

  6. Solar neutrino problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_neutrino_problem

    The Sun performs nuclear fusion via the proton–proton chain reaction, which converts four protons into alpha particles, neutrinos, positrons, and energy.This energy is released in the form of electromagnetic radiation, as gamma rays, as well as in the form of the kinetic energy of both the charged particles and the neutrinos.

  7. Zero-point energy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zero-point_energy

    The concept of zero-point energy was developed by Max Planck in Germany in 1911 as a corrective term added to a zero-grounded formula developed in his original quantum theory in 1900. [26] In 1912, Max Planck published the first journal article to describe the discontinuous emission of radiation, based on the discrete quanta of energy. [27]

  8. Black hole thermodynamics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_hole_thermodynamics

    In physics, black hole thermodynamics [1] is the area of study that seeks to reconcile the laws of thermodynamics with the existence of black hole event horizons.As the study of the statistical mechanics of black-body radiation led to the development of the theory of quantum mechanics, the effort to understand the statistical mechanics of black holes has had a deep impact upon the ...

  9. Solar neutrino unit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_neutrino_unit

    The solar neutrino unit (SNU) is a unit of Solar neutrino flux widely used in neutrino astronomy and radiochemical neutrino experiments. It is equal to the neutrino flux producing 10 −36 captures per target atom per second. [1] It is convenient given the very low event rates in radiochemical experiments.
