One of the most intriguing questions in modern science is if large objects \u2013 like a coffee cup \u2014 could also show this behavior. Scientists at the TU Delft have taken the next step towards observing quantum effects at everyday temperatures in large objects. They created a highly reflective membrane, visible to the naked eye, that can vibrate with hardly any energy loss at room temperature. The membrane is a promising candidate to research quantum mechanics in large objects.<\/p>\n<p>The team has reported their results in <i>Physical Review Letters<\/i>.<\/p>\n<p><b>Swing<\/b><\/p>\n<p>\u201cImagine you\u2019re given a single push on a playground swing.
