arte-TV: Visiting professor Ulf Leonhardt talks about scientific speculation

In a video clip produced by arte-TV, Prof. Ulf Leonhardt who is currently visiting professor to the CoQuS programme talks about the role of speculation in modern science and the inspiration for his own research. Also featured in...

CoQuS PhD students in cooperation with Laurenz Widhalm (HEPHY – ÖAW / CERN) opened the doors of the Faculty of Physics for an interactive workshop on the astounding phenomena of Quantum Physics: „Die verrückte Welt des Quantenlands"

This workshop was part of the „Wiener Science Lectures“, an initiative of the „Wiener Stadtschulrat (Vienna School Board)“ to spark the interest of 7 to 14 year old students in fundamental science and cutting-edge research.

CoQuS Summer School 2012 - "Quantum Physics meets Gravity"

The Vienna Doctoral Program on Complex Quantum Systems is organizing a summer school on theoretical and experimental research topics at the intersection of quantum physics and general relativity. The preliminary list of topics...

One clock with two times: when quantum mechanics meets general relativity

The unification of quantum mechanics and Einstein's general relativity is one of the most exciting and still open questions in modern physics. General relativity, the joint theory of gravity, space and time gives predictions that...

A new scheme for photonic quantum computing

The concepts of quantum technology promise to achieve more powerful information processing than is possible with even the best possible classical computers. To actually build efficient quantum computers remains a significant...
