Fermilab Physicist Secures Grant for Quantum Dark Matter Detection Research

Dr. Rakshya Khatiwada of Fermilab and Illinois Institute of Technology received a DOE Early Career Award to develop a four-qubit entangled quantum sensing system. This project aims to explore if quantum entanglement can provide a significant advantage in detecting dark matter signals compared to traditional methods. The research could advance both quantum technology and fundamental physics, potentially leading to new insights into the universe's composition.
