What is quantum entanglement? The physics of 'spooky action at a distance' explained
Quantum entanglement occurs when two subatomic particles become linked in such a way that their properties remain connected, no matter how far apart they are. A change to one particle seems to instantaneously influence the other, even if they are separated by billions of light-years.

Three Scientists Receive Nobel Prize in Physics for Pioneering Work That Put Quantum Mechanics on a ‘Human Scale’
The discovery honored with this year’s Nobel Prize in Physics takes phenomena observed in the subatomic world—the interactions and behavior of tiny particles like electrons and protons—and puts them on an electronic chip large enough to hold in your hand.
The trio was awarded the prize for research on quantum tunneling, the second year in a row that IT-related work was honored.
On Tuesday the field of quantum mechanics received a thoughtful 100th-birthday present from the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences: three shiny new medals, 11 million Swedish kronor (to be divided equally) and bragging rights for a theory that works at all scales.
Winners Three scientists shared the Nobel Prize in physics for demonstrating how quantum mechanics work on a new scale, with potential implications for the next generation of quantum technology. The winners are John Clarke of University of California at Berkeley,
The 2025 Nobel Prize in Physics goes to three scientists who made electrical circuits act like atoms - an experiment which lies at the heart of our quantum future.
