The Curious Case of Quantum Systems Defying Entropy
Some quantum systems may resist an effect of entropy called thermalisation

The fundamental laws of physics dictate that all systems tend towards disorder and chaos, succumbing to the relentless force of entropy. However, a recent breakthrough challenges this age-old principle, introducing a fascinating exception to the rule.
Lead researcher Andrew Lucas from the University of Colorado remarks, “Our discovery may appear quite astonishing.” This groundbreaking study reignites a longstanding discourse on the potential resilience of quantum particles against the entropic tide.
