The BESIII Collaboration has achieved the world's most precise measurement of the Lambda hyperon's electric dipole moment (EDM) using quantum entanglement. This research utilizes quantum entanglement as a precision tool to investigate fundamental symmetries in short-lived particles like the Lambda hyperon, which contains a strange quark. These measurements provide crucial information complementary to other EDM searches, helping to constrain potential sources of new CP violation beyond the Standard Model.
