Professor Jun Ye’s team, in collaboration with JILA and NIST Fellow James Thompson, has used a specific process known as spin squeezing to generate quantum entanglement, resulting in an enhancement in clock performance.
CU Boulder researchers discussed the challenges that could compromise the potential of some of the country’s most ambitious climate policies including the Inflation Reduction Act.
A new, full-scale skeleton of a Triceratops dinosaur has arrived on campus, shining a light on Colorado’s ancient past—a time when creatures like this three-horned dinosaur tromped through landscapes with palm trees, and flying reptiles with 20-foot wingspans called pterosaurs soared through the sky.
