This project is aimed at constructing and observing an individual quantum system that can exhibit chaotic behaviour under controllable conditions. It is a long-sought goal of modern physics that can become reality for the first time in the world, thanks to the unique availability in Australia of the most quantum-coherent single spin ever made and a long history of theoretical advances in the field. Turning a spin into a chaotic system will uncover the true nature of the quantum-classical boundary, and verify whether an underlying classical chaotic dynamics ultimately influences the behaviour of quantum systems. It is expected that the discoveries made will illuminate the path towards the technological exploitation of increasingly complex quantum devices.

该项目旨在构建和观察一个单独的量子系统，该系统可以在可控条件下表现出混沌行为。这是现代物理学长期追求的目标，可以在世界上第一次成为现实，这要归功于澳大利亚有史以来最量子相干的单自旋的独特可用性以及该领域理论进步的悠久历史。将自旋转化为混沌系统将揭示量子-经典边界的真实性质，并验证潜在的经典混沌动力学是否最终影响量子系统的行为。预计这些发现将为日益复杂的量子设备的技术开发指明道路。
