Physicists prove long-suspected quantum speed limit for thermalization
Original: Physicists prove a long-suspected quantum speed limit for thermalization
Physicists have mathematically proven a long-suspected limit on how quickly quantum systems can thermalize, settling a decades-old question about how fast systems approach thermal equilibrium. The result places a firm bound on thermalization speeds, a fundamental constraint relevant to quantum computing, condensed matter physics and the study of many-body quantum systems.
Why now: A rigorous proof of a fundamental quantum physics conjecture is a notable scientific advance that researchers and science media are discussing.
