Physicists have moved a macroscopic sample of diamond using only the force from the sample’s own electron spins. This achievement, which shows that a small quantum effect can produce a large classical response, could herald a new class of sensors that are precise enough to probe the nature of gravity and test the boundaries of quantum mechanics.
“There is a lot of interest in this spin force because the force it exerts can be a quantum force,” explains physicist Jason Twamley, who led the resear
