The concept does not enable physical travel through time but focuses on information transfer through causal loops at the quantum scale. The work, accepted for publication in Physical Review Letters, builds on ideas from general relativity and quantum entanglement.  A technique inspired by the film Interstellar suggests a new way of communicating backwards in time, but it...
