Researchers developed a special type of amplifier that uses a technique known as squeezing to amplify quantum signals by a factor of 100 while reducing the noise that is inherent in quantum systems by an order of magnitude. Their device is the first to demonstrate squeezing over a broad frequency bandwidth of 1.75 gigahertz, nearly two orders of magnitude higher than other architectures.
More and more Rochester-area musicians are abandoning the recorded medium of albums and EP’s in favor of stand-alone singles, giving each song its own time to shine.
