Consciousness within the brain hinges on the synchronized activities of millions of neurons, but the mechanism responsible for orchestrating such synchronization remains elusive. In this study we employ cavity quantum electrodynamics to explore entangled biphoton generation through cascade emission in the vibration spectrum of C-H bonds within the lipid molecules' tails. The results indicate that the cylindrical cavity formed by a myelin sheath can facilitate spontaneous photon emission from the vibrational modes and generate a significant number of entangled photon pairs. The abundance of C-H bond vibration units in neurons can therefore serve as a source of quantum entanglement resources for the nervous system. These findings may offer insight into the brain's ability to leverage these resources for quantum information transfer, thereby elucidating a potential source for the synchronized activity of neurons.
A study published on bioRxiv precisely simulated guided mode propagation through the myelin sheath waveguide structure of brain neurons containing multiple nodes of Ranvier. The analysis results confirmed that the polarization information of light is highly preserved even while passing through multiple nodes, and the transmission loss occurring when passing through the nodes remains at the level of simple exponentiated transmission (multiplicative). By demonstrating that photon polarization, which is the core of quantum information encoding, is transmitted without loss, it presents disruptive evidence proving that the implementation of long-distance quantum communication and quantum entanglement mediated by biophotons within the living brain white matter network is physically possible. [Quantum Biology Society] Recently, the hypothesis that the myelin sheath of brain white matter wrapping the axons of neurons can act as an optical fiber (waveguide) guiding light based on its high refractive index has received significant attention from the scientific community. However, it has not been clearly known whether the polarization information of light can be fully preserved when passing through multiple nodes of Ranvier, which are discontinuous structures broken intermittently along the myelin sheath. The paper titled "Optical polarization evolution and transmission in multi-Ranvier-node axonal myelin-sheath waveguides," published on the preprint repository bioRxiv, successfully elucidated this long-standing question through precise simulations. A research team including Emily Frede, Hadi Zadeh-Haghighi, and Professor Christoph Simon from the Department of Physics and Astronomy and the Institute for Quantum Science and Technology at the University of Calgary in Canada spearheaded this innovative study. ■ Multiple Nodes of Ranvier and Guided Mode Propagation of Light To analyze how light moves inside the myelin sheath waveguide structure, the research team performed guided mode propagation simulations in an environment containing multiple nodes of Ranvier. Previously, concerns had been continuously raised that physical disconnection sections like nodes could induce light scattering and distort signals, making it difficult for in vivo waveguides to transmit meaningful optical information over long distances. ■ Highly Preserved Polarization Information and Low Transmission Loss The simulation results surpassed existing limitations. It was confirmed that the polarization state harbored by the light is highly and stably preserved even in the harsh environment where light consecutively passes through multiple nodes. Furthermore, the optical transmission loss occurring each time it passes through a node does not deteriorate exponentially but remains at a simple exponentiated transmission level. This proves that the myelin sheath is an excellent optical waveguide capable of highly effectively maintaining and transmitting light containing information. ■ Physical Possibility of In Vivo Long-Distance Quantum Communication The polarization state of a photon is an essential physical property for encoding quantum information and implementing entanglement in the microscopic world. As this study demonstrates that the myelin sheath can transmit photon polarization over long distances without loss, it leads to the disruptive conclusion that long-distance quantum communication and quantum entanglement mediated by biophotons are physically and perfectly possible inside the living brain's white matter network. This is evaluated as one of the most advanced biophysical pieces of evidence showing that the human brain can operate as a massive biological quantum network composed of proteins and neural networks. #MyelinSheathWaveguide #MultipleNodesOfRanvier #Biophotons #OpticalPolarization #PolarizationPreservation #QuantumInformation #QuantumEntanglement #LongDistanceQuantumCommunication #BrainWhiteMatterNetwork #KoreanSocietyOfQuantumBiology https://arxiv.org/abs/2304.00174
AbstractThe rigid forward-only arrow of time remains the deepest bottleneck in computa-tion. Building directly on the foundational Retrocausal Chronophotonic Orbital Meshand the parent Flickering Photonic Observers (FPOs), this paper introduces EntangledPhotonic Observers (ENTANGLEPOs) as a new behavioral attribute integrated intothe Photonic Observers Family of modes.ENTANGLEPOs draw their operational principle from the 2024 Shanghai Univer-sity study published in Physical Review E, which demonstrates that the myelin sheathsurrounding neurons functions as a microscopic electromagnetic cavity.

This paper explores a novel approach to neural network synchronization leveraging the phenomenon of quantum entanglement. We propose a distributed neural network architecture where synchronization is achieved instantaneously through entanglement, bypassing the limitations imposed by the speed of light and the inherent delays in conventional neural network communication. The core concept involves integrating quantum processors and classical processors within each neuron. Quantum processors, utilizing entangled states, provide real-time synchronization of other neurons, while classical processors manage classical information exchange and feedback. The proposed method represents a significant departure from existing synchronization techniques, which rely on finite-speed signal transmission. This research has the potential to revolutionize both biological and computational neural networks by enabling truly instantaneous synchronization. We present a detailed theoretical framework and explore the key components of this system, focusing on the operational mechanisms and potential challenges. The ultimate goal is to demonstrate a viable pathway for constructing a synchronized distributed neural network based on the fundamental principles of quantum mechanics.
• Published on bioRxiv, successfully observed multiple-quantum coherence (MQC) and SU(1,1) pair dynamics in proton spin ensembles of the living human brain. • Mathematically proved that the observed signal is not a classical SU(2) exchange model, but a non-compact SU(1,1) symmetry squeezing phenomenon based on double-quantum (DQ) coherence. • Overcame the thermodynamic obstruction of high-temperature biological environments at body temperature and presented a framework that strongly supports the possible existence of macroscopic many-body entanglement inside the brain. [Quantum Biology Society] The hypothesis that the living human brain could fundamentally operate like a giant quantum computer has long been a hot potato in the scientific community. This is because conventional physics dictates that quantum coherence collapses instantaneously in a warm and wet biological environment (about 310 K). However, a recent study has sent shockwaves through the academic world by discovering clear signal-level evidence of macroscopic quantum entanglement and multiple-quantum coherence (MQC) in the proton spin ensembles inside the human brain. An innovative paper titled "Signal-Level Witnessing of SU(1,1) Pair Dynamics in Brain Proton Spin Ensembles" was published on the preprint repository bioRxiv. Authored solely by independent researcher Christian Kerskens, this paper ruled out existing classical exchange pathways and analyzed the quantum dynamics of the brain from a new perspective. ■ SU(1,1) Quantum Squeezing Phenomenon Beyond Classical SU(2) Exchange In conventional nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) theory, spin dynamics within dipolar-coupled ensembles of biological tissues have mainly been explained by the compact symmetry SU(2) exchange pathway. SU(2) symmetry creates a classical form of dynamics where spins oscillate and exchange with each other in an energy-constrained environment. However, unusual magnetic resonance data previously acquired from the living human brain exhibited features that directly contradict this SU(2) model. Phenomena that cannot be explained by classical exchange appeared, such as signals occurring immediately without an evolution delay, or refocusing occurring at the sum rather than the difference of the two frequencies. The author of this study, Christian Kerskens, presented a new analytical framework suggesting that these anomalous signals originate from a non-compact SU(1,1) pair sector. SU(1,1) symmetry is mainly dealt with in quantum optics and is the dynamics governing the exponential amplification and quantum squeezing of signals. This is the first time this symmetry has been directly observed in a macroscopic spin ensemble. ■ The Readout Pathway Uncovering Hidden Double-Quantum (DQ) Coherence The most significant characteristic of SU(1,1) pair operators is that they possess a double-quantum (DQ) coherence order rather than zero-quantum (ZQ). In principle, typical detectors cannot directly read these multiple-quantum states. However, the researcher mathematically proved that the unique 45°-gradient-45° pulse readout block used in the experiment provides a specific coherence-transfer pathway that converts this hidden DQ pair coherence into a detectable signal. In other words, he revealed that a specific wave we read as a brain MRI signal was actually the result of an entangled double-quantum state among brain protons. ■ Quantum Proof Overcoming the 'Thermodynamic Obstruction' of 310 K Biological Temperature Another crucial achievement of this study is that it bypassed the pseudopure-state obstruction, a chronic limitation of room-temperature bulk NMR environments. In the high-temperature brain environment, thermodynamic noise is dominant, so an entangled state can never be proven with a bipartite entanglement evaluation formula that isolates and looks at only two spins. The researcher redefined the observed signal not simply as a signal of two isolated spins, but as a collective multiple-quantum coherence (MQC) signal of the entire massive spin ensemble. The observed signal acts as a powerful quantum witness indicating that the macroscopic proton pool of the brain has exceeded the pure single-mode compression limit and entered a complex cross-mode entangled structure. This paper is evaluated as having an enormous impact on the convergence of brain science and quantum biology, as it demonstrated with a rigorous physical framework the possibility that the living human brain possesses a macroscopic quantum state with countless proton spins entangled with each other through SU(1,1) dynamics.
This paper proposes a novel framework for understanding neuronal information processing, suggesting that quantum entanglement plays a significant role in neural communication, termed "quantum neurons." We introduce a model that incorporates quantum superposition and entanglement to simulate neuronal activity, moving beyond classical neuron models. The core mechanism involves utilizing quantum measurements and feedback loops to process information within this quantum neural network. We demonstrate how entangled states can facilitate information transfer exceeding the limitations of classical models, potentially explaining phenomena like consciousness and intelligence. The theoretical framework presented here offers a fundamentally new perspective on the nature of neuronal computation and provides a basis for future research in quantum neuroscience.
