From Black Holes to Qubits: The True Speed of Information

Physicists at the University of Maryland have identified a universal speed limit for how information spreads in quantum systems. The result shows that “scrambling”—the rapid sharing of information between particles—is fundamentally constrained by temperature and entropy.

Extending ideas from black holes, the finding applies to all quantum structures, from simple systems to complex networks.

This connection between thermodynamics and information flow could reshape how we model quantum computing and phenomena like teleportation.
