Physicists at CERN, with contributions from the University of Oxford, have confirmed that quantum entanglement, often referred to as 'spooky action at a distance,' persists even within the fleeting existence of Z bosons. This discovery, made using the Large Hadron Collider, extends the demonstration of entanglement to energies far beyond previous tests, providing new insights into the fundamental nature of quantum mechanics at extreme energies. The findings were published in Physical Review Letters.
