quantum coherence
[ˈkwɒntəm koʊˈhɪrəns]
nounpl: quantum coherences
coerência quântica
1. The property of quantum systems in which particles exist in a superposition of states, maintaining phase relationships that allow for interference effects and quantum behavior
Quantum coherence is essential for the operation of quantum computers, as it allows qubits to exist in multiple states simultaneously.
A coerência quântica é essencial para o funcionamento dos computadores quânticos, pois permite que os qubits existam em múltiplos estados simultaneamente.
2. The ability of a quantum system to maintain its wave function without collapsing into a classical state, preserved through isolation from environmental decoherence
The quantum coherence of the system was lost when external vibrations caused decoherence.
A coerência quântica do sistema foi perdida quando vibrações externas causaram decoerência.
3. In quantum mechanics, the correlation between different parts of a quantum state that enables quantum phenomena such as entanglement and superposition
Maintaining quantum coherence at higher temperatures remains one of the major challenges in quantum computing.
Manter a coerência quântica em temperaturas mais altas permanece um dos principais desafios da computação quântica.
Quantum coherence is a highly specialized scientific term primarily used in physics, quantum computing, and quantum information theory. It is predominantly used in academic and research settings in both Brazil and the United States. The term maintains the same meaning across English and Portuguese-speaking scientific communities, reflecting the universal language of physics. In Brazil, this terminology is particularly important in growing quantum computing research centers, while in the USA it is central to major tech companies' quantum research initiatives.
