Daily briefing: Largest ever 'superposition' pushes quantum boundary

Quantum superposition observed in sodium clusters of ~7,000 atoms suggests macroscopic quantum behavior, while magnetically controllable proteins and 67,800-year-old cave art reveal diverse scientific advances.

Quantum physicists just supersized Schrodinger's cat. What happens next could be revolutionary

A team based at the University of Vienna put individual clusters of around 7,000 atoms of sodium metal some 8 nanometres wide into a superposition of different locations, each spaced 133 nanometres apart. Rather than shoot through the experimental set up like a billiard ball, each chunky cluster behaved like a wave, spreading out into a superposition of spatially distinct paths and then interfering to form a pattern researchers could detect.
