A lecture on quantum physics to children aged 8-12 years. We introduce young minds to complex scientific concepts through interactive learning, simplifying quantum principles, and encouraging curiosity, critical thinking, and future exploration in science.
The lecture “A Quantum Leap into the Future” covered the following topics:
• Young´s Double Slit experiment
• Making electrons visible
• Quantum logic
• Photons and the speed of light
• Spectra and IR
• Lasers
• Levitating superconductor
Ce webinaire, organisé par CNRS Physique et l’IGESR (Education nationale), est destiné aux enseignant.es sur inscription. Deux exposé sont prévues : Julien Bobroff (LPS/La physique autrement) : “dernières nouvelles de la quantique” et Lou Barreau (ISMO) :”Physique quantique ultrarapide : observer les mouvements des molécules et des électrons à l’échelle attoseconde”, suivi d’une mise en contexte avec les programmes de lycée.
75. Yil Fen Lisesi (a secondary school in Mersin, Turkey) will host the 8-hour-long, in-person quantum workshop “My Photonic Ship” as part of the Latvian Quantum Initiative project, led by Dr. Abuzer Yakaryilmaz from the University of Latvia.
During the workshop, high school students will explore quantum superposition, conduct photon experiments using simulators and quantum circuits, engage in mathematical and philosophical discussions, and develop a video game integrating quantum superposition. Through these activities, the participants will gain hands-on experience with quantum computing principles and their creative applications.

Quantum science and technologies harness the principles of quantum mechanics to transform computing, communication, and sensing to new areas. These advancements drive innovation across industries, shaping the future of science and technology.
In order to introduce and highlight the importance of them in technologies and today’s world, IASBS is organizing a variety of events throughout the year during the International Year of Quantum.
At the opening ceremony, in addition to commemorating this worldwide occasion, we will be discussing the background, significance, effect, and future of two key areas: quantum foundation and quantum biology.
Las asociaciones de divulgación de la ciencia junto con amantes de la misma realizarán una feria con demostraciones y actividades interactivas abiertas a todo el público para mostrar la importancia de la cuántica en nuestro mundo moderno.

Following the second meeting in February 2024, the objective of The 3rd Quantum Annealing and Related Technology is to provide an overview of the current state of quantum annealing and related technological advances, as well as to provide a forum for the exchange of ideas. The focus will be on basic scientific and technical aspects, but broader topics will also be covered.
¡Prepárate para un viaje al mundo cuántico! Descubre cómo esta ciencia ha transformado nuestras vidas.
Participan: Luis A. Orozco y Alfredo Sánchez. Presenta: Gerardo Ascencio.
“What the quant?!” is an exhibition to celebrate the Quantum Year 2025 in the Forum Wissen, the knowledge museum of the University of Göttingen. The Forum Wissen is dedicating a large special exhibition to mark the topic of quantum mechanics, whose history is closely linked with Göttingen University. The exhibition tells the story of quantum physics from the year 1900 right up to the present day. It will run at the Forum Wissen from 27 March to 5 October 2025.
The special exhibition in the Forum Wissen explores how the understanding of quantum mechanics came together in 1925. It illustrates that science is a collaborative endeavour supported by exchange with others. The exhibition shows the role played by international research networks, together with the financial, political and social circumstances at the time that made the scientific breakthrough possible, and current technology that relies on quantum physics.
Hands-on experiments in quantum physics illustrate that the world works very differently at the level of individual atoms than we could ever imagine. A wide range of examples show where quantum technologies are currently in use. Playful and theatrical contributions developed by pupils, as well as art installations, invite visitors to explore the world of quanta in the Forum Wissen.
The exhibition was developed by Forum Wissen curators Dr Ramona Dölling and Christine Nawa in collaboration with Göttingen University physicist Professor Stefan Kehrein and other curators of collections across the University.
The patron of the exhibition is the German Physical Society.
El Instituto de Ciencias Físicas, UNAM, México, invita al público general a una serie de charlas de divulgación dirigidas a todo público sobre la relevancia de la Mecánica Cuántica y su impacto en la sociedad moderna. La actividad tendrá lugar en el Museo Universitario de Arte Indígena Contemporáneo, Cuernavaca, México.
