Kvantové počítače jsou novou a rychle nastupující technologií zpracování informací. Slibují tak vysoký výpočetní výkon, že si to člověk ani nedokáže představit. Pro vývoj nových materiálů pro zelené technologie, jako jsou lehčí baterie do elektromobilů, nebo lepší solární panely, nebo pro pochopení procesů v našem těle a vývoj nových léků, na to ani nejvýkonnější superpočítače dneška nestačí. Kvantové počítače využívají kvantových jevů, které jsou běžné ve světě atomů a molekul, ale pro člověka se mohou jevit spíše jako kouzla. Je libo existovat na dvou místech zároveň? Nebo být s něčím (někým;-) provázán kvantovým poutem klidně přes celý vesmír? Nebo vytvářet paralelní vesmíry jako na běžícím pásu? Tohle všechno se v kvantových počítačích děje…

U příležitosti Mezinárodního dne kvantové fyziky 2025 představí vědci z Akademie věd ČR v prostorách Hvězdárny a planetária Brno dne 15. dubna 2025 téma kvantové fyziky a s ní spojených kvantových technologií. Seznámíte se s výzkumem vědců vycházejícím z nejnovějších poznatků kvantové fyziky.

Soubor interaktivních exponátů, na kterých vám vědci z ISI CAS a IPM CAS ukáží a návštěvníci si sami vyzkouší pokusy ukazující kvantové jevy v technologiích, které se staly součástí našeho života. Kvantové jevy se uplatňují na úrovni atomů, proto je nemůžeme přímo pozorovat prostým okem. Projevují se při interakci elementárních částic se světlem. Právě tyto jevy ještě v 19. století vědci nedokázali vysvětlit klasickou fyzikou, a tak vznikly základy ke kvantové fyzice.

The Quantum Australia Conference 2025 will bring together world-leading quantum researchers, businesses, government decision-makers, startups, and big tech to share the latest developments and ideas in this rapidly evolving field.

The conference will explore the theme The Translation of Quantum – how current and future industries can leverage the power of quantum.

Join us for engaging presentations, insightful discussions, and unparalleled networking opportunities with key players in the Australian and global quantum landscape.

The Queensland Branch of AIP has organised a public lecture given by Prof. Andrew White for the International Year of Quantum Science and Technology, coinciding with Quantum Australia / World Science Festival week (next Monday, 24th of March, 7:30 PM S05 Lecture Theatre).

Undergraduate students will likely be interested in the talk – see attached for a PowerPoint slide and PDF to promote your courses as you wish. Please register your attendance through the EventBrite.

As part of the International Year of Quantum Science, the Austrian Research Promotion Agency (FFG) is organizing a talk with experts from science, business, and politics to shed light on the economic benefits of quantum technology.

Innovation requires courage, knowledge, money – and a strong partner. As the central national funding organization, the FFG offers Austria’s companies and organizations a wide range of funding opportunities. This benefits newcomers and innovation professionals, start-ups, and individual researchers, as well as corporations and universities.

Join us and discuss the quantum perspectives for Austria and Europe!
