exploring the next frontier in communication and computation
\n\n\n\n‘Quantum’. You’ve heard the word. From Marvel’s Ant-man to Google’s claims of supremacy, ‘quantum’ seems synonymous to ‘magic’, and it is transforming our technology day by day. Today, quantum computers have been developed with various types of qubits and the next quantum revolution lies in connecting these globally through an entanglement-based network – that is, ‘the quantum internet’. Just as the classical internet fundamentally altered our lived reality, the quantum internet could change the world in ways we’ve yet to conceive of. Game-changing applications we are working towards today include quantum communication, secured by the laws of the universe, and powerful networked quantum computing. The age of quantum has arrived and it’s here to stay, which again begs the question: What does ‘quantum’ mean? For our computers? For our internet? For us?
\n\n\n\nAt the leading QuTech research institute in Delft, a diversity of experts is pioneering this new era. On September 16, in the Science Café, three of these experts – Tzula Propp, Wojciech Kozlowski, and Arian Stolk – will guide us through the various aspects of the quantum internet. Propp will introduce us to some foundational concepts of quantum mechanics and what they mean for computation and communication technology. Kozlowski will then take us deeper, exploring the cutting-edge design, architecture, and real-world applications of the quantum internet. Stolk will bring the discussion full circle by demonstrating the physical realization of this technology, bridging the gap between theory and reality.
\n\n\n\nThis evening, alongside riveting scientific discussion, Deltatune and Jeroen Glas will immerse us in their mesmerizing mix of glassware sound objects and lo-fi video, driven by home-crafted electronic leads and beats. Come join the launch of the new Science Café season!
