His conclusion, which comes from considering the behavior of the Quebits, now questions the major idea that the four-dimensional space-time is the fundamental fabric of physical reality.
A QBIT is an object with two potential states – for example, two separate spin. Because it is quantum, a quit can also exist in the combinations of those states that no familiar item can ever take – an event known …
