Survival of the fittest quantum states, scrutinizing antihydrogen, physics of chilled drinks

05 Sep 2019 Hamish Johnston

In this week’s podcast Physics World editors ponder quantum Darwinism, a proposed framework for understanding how measurements are made on quantum systems.

We also talk about how physicists at CERN are making very precise measurements of the properties of antihydrogen – and how their experiments could provide a glimpse of what lies beyond the Standard Model of particle physics.

If you are planning a party this weekend, we can point you in the direction of an online calculator that tells you how to chill your beverages to the perfect temperature.
