4. A quantum storage ring, the quantum storage ring comprising:
a containment about 1 meter in diameter;
at least one laser for cooling ions in the storage ring such that thermal vibrations of ions are cooled to an extremely low temperature, so that the quantum states in motion of the ions are observable, and
electrodes adapted to be excited with RF signals.
