Exploring Entanglement Entropies in Nuclear Environments

Entanglement is what Einstein called "spooky action at a distance." It is a key part of what distinguishes quantum mechanics from our everyday experience. In quantum mechanics, scientists use a measurement called entanglement entropy to quantify the amount of the entanglement between two subsystems-;for example, between a system being studied and its environment.
