“And, when you want something, all the universe conspires in helping you to achieve it.” Sike! The universe is all about destruction, burning stars and it does not care about you! But we do, and we have a few people to explain to us what the hell is happening up there!
Keeping quantum information safe and sound
Lukas Cvitkovich
(PhD in Physics)
Buddha said, nothing is permanent. And he was right. Sit back and relax when I show you how nature constantly destroys the state of a quantum object and how we try to stop this.
Laughing stars
Lisa Bugnet
(Professor in Astronomy)
Forget the silent ball of fire you imagine: a star is a huge and extremely noisy ball of gas. The millions of sounds emitted by a star like our Sun at any given moment add up to something like a burst of laughter. By analyzing the laughter of old stars, we can predict the future of our young Sun! Most likely, it will continue to laugh in the same way as it does today. However, it could also evolve like many old stars, whose laughter has mysteriously faded. What if interpreting the laughter of stars allowed us to understand the magnetic behavior inside our Sun, and predict its evolution?
