Study Finds No Neutrino Decoherence, Sets Icy Grip on Neutrino-Quantum Gravity Interactions

Insider Brief Researchers reported on the stringent constraints on potential quantum fluctuations of spacetime itself. The team used high-energy neutrinos detected by the IceCube experiment to look for any loss of coherence in the neutrinos’ oscillating flavor composition as they traveled across billions of light-years. A better understanding of decoherence could also impact quantum technologies …
