Despite quantum physics being hard to follow, the concept for the radar is pretty easy to understand. First, they generate an entangled pair of microwave photons, a task they perform with a ...

A quantum radar using entangled microwave photons has been created at the Institute of Science and Technology Austria. Also known as ‘microwave quantum illumination’, the demonstration detected ...

Today, Percy Spencer's invention and research into microwave technology is still being used as a jumping off point for further research in radar and magnetron technologies. Different wavelengths ...

But the cavity magnetron still can be found in general and commercial aviation RADAR systems, as well as the microwave ovens we all know and love. Check the video out after the break.
