Entangled ions over 230m published

Our work on entangling two calcium ions in buildings 230 meters apart was published in Physical Review Letters. The work was done in a close collaboration between our group and the groups of Prof. Tracy Northup and of Nicolous Sangoaurd. Congratulations to the team!
