School of Physics, Engineering and Technology Webinar Series

Prof Irene D'Amico, School of Physics, Engineering and Technology, The University of York

Until the turn of the century, quantum phenomena such as entanglement and superposition were almost considered a curiosity, stemming from the complex mathematical description of quantum mechanics. That is, until the scientific community set a sharper and sharper focus on the potential practical consequences of these wonders. From entanglement to quantum computation, from teleportation to quantum communication, this talk will bring you on a journey along the magical world of the second quantum revolution.
