method to entangle thousands of atoms could lead to record clock stability /

Physicists possess proposed a method for entangling hundreds of atoms,and then entangling a dozen or so groups of these hundreds of atoms, resulting in a quantum network of thousands of entangled atoms. Since small bundles of these entangled groups can function as atomic clocks, and this design is the first detailed proposal for a quantum network of atomic clocks.
