Quantum theory explains the nature and behavior of energy and matter on the quantum (atomic and subatomic) levels. All electromagnetic radiation is light. The amount of energy emitted or absorbed in the form of electromagnetic radiation is known as quantum. The unit of light energy is photon, a tiny packet with zero rest mass and charge, has wave-particle duality; a stable, fast moving (momentum) or spin.

Why do we remember the past but not the future? Why is it that we can decide what to do tomorrow but not what we did yesterday? Theoretical physicist Carlo Rovelli revels in asking such questions about the nature of time — they might seem trivial at first but they force one to look deeper, revealing new aspects of reality. In the world of physics, Rovelli is known for his work on loop quantum gravity — a theory that builds on Einstein’s general relativity and seeks to understand the quantum aspects of spacetime. The theory shows that the fabric of spacetime is woven by tiny loops built into a network.

Did you know that the European Union has signed a Pact to make Europe the quantum valley of the world? 🔬 The Pact aims to increase the economic and scientific impact of European scientific excellence by investing in these technologies. By strengthening collaboration among Member States, the European Union wants to position itself as a world leader in quantum research and innovation. Here at ICN2, researchers study quantum materials and quantum technologies, nurturing the quantum technologies ecosystem.

It was great to have Petr Kavalir, the Czech Republic's Special Envoy for Quantum Technologies, in Washington, D.C., and have him speak at the panel focused on emerging quantum programs and global collaboration at Quantum World Congress 2024. It was an I nsightful discussion moderated by Ona Ambrozaite from Johns Hopkins University Bloomberg Center Science Diplomacy Hub, which explored the rapidly growing quantum information science and technology (QIST) ecosystem together with colleagues from Chile, Brazil and Finland. The session highlighted national perspectives on quantum technologies, the critical role of transnational partnerships, and the increasing importance of private sector initiatives. They delved into challenges such as the role of supply chains, the identification and adoption of relevant use cases, public perception, and the need for ongoing research. Additionally, the speakers emphasized the crucial importance of education, talent development, and workforce growth to support the demands of this rapidly evolving field. #QuantumTech #QIST #QuantumWorldCongress2024 #Collaboration #Innovation #ScienceDiplomacy #QuantumFuture #QuantumEcosystem Ministerstvo zahraničních věcí - Ekonomická a vědecká diplomacie

China, #ArtificialInteligence and #QuantumComputing are leading great changes. How will the "technology standard-bearers" of the #TwoSessions2024 take action? During this year's Two Sessions, many experts from the field of quantum science participated, including Pan Jianwei, a member of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference and an academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and Guo Guoping, a representative of the National People's Congress and deputy director of the Key Laboratory of Quantum Information of the Chinese Academy of Sciences. #ExtremaRatio https://lnkd.in/ewe6Gjmh

If we wait for science to prove everything, we miss out on the extraordinary potential to experience life in a new and profound way. Don’t wait for science to validate what your intuition already tells you is real. Begin exploring the implications of quantum principles in your life today. Practice intentional observation, cultivate awareness of interconnectedness, and notice how your thoughts and actions influence outcomes. By embracing the belief in quantum principles now, you unlock the door to experiences that will eventually serve as the evidence you seek. Take the step of belief, and watch the evidence unfold around you. Let your belief be the starting point for quantum transformation, where the observer shapes reality, and the interconnectedness of the universe becomes a guiding force in your life. https://lnkd.in/g8BQUMES

If you challenge the mainstream zeitgeist, expect to be first ignored, then vigorously opposed, then tolerated, then told in your obituary that it as an idea was already considered by others and rested on experimental ideas performed by others that they patiently awaited with open minds. ***** “Why should a change of paradigm be called a revolution? In the face of the vast and essential differences between political and scientific development, what parallelism can justify the metaphor that finds revolutions in both? One aspect of the parallelism must already be apparent. Political revolutions are inaugurated by a growing sense, often restricted to a segment of the political community, that existing institutions have ceased adequately to meet the problems posed by an environment that they have in part created. In much the same way, scientific revolutions are inaugurated by a growing sense, again often restricted to a narrow subdivision of the scientific community, that an existing paradigm has ceased to function adequately in the exploration of an aspect of nature to which that paradigm itself had previously led the way. In both political and scientific development the sense of malfunction that can lead to crisis is prerequisite to revolution.” ~ Thomas S. Kuhn, The Structure of Scientific Revolutions

Quantum Darwinism posits a transformative perspective on #quantum information’s role in the emergence of classical reality. Central to this discourse is the concept of einselection, the environment’s role in selecting particular states that #persist and proliferate. The environment, acting as a witness, amplifies certain quantum states which become the classical “truths” perceived. https://lnkd.in/g3K8sDkU

Nova Campfire: Overcoming the Great Divide - Quantum Social Change for Personal and Planetary Health - Tuesday May 7 at 11 am EDT (5 pm CET/3 pm GMT/8 am PDT) Join us for the next Nova Campfire! We will explore strategies to overcome political polarization and cultural fragmentation that threaten personal and planetary health. Hostile social environments and culture wars undermine mental and physical well-being and pose major obstacles in co-creating solutions to our global challenges. Drawing parallels between quantum physics and social sciences, quantum social change suggests that small actions can lead to meaningful shifts in societal attitudes, beliefs, and structures through our inherent oneness and connection. In collaboration with the Garrison Institute, we will examine how to synthesize and harmonize positive goals of all viewpoints through shared values, including approaches that seek to include rather than exclude. We will consider how aligning values with actions can create fractal patterns that catalyze change across scales—from individuals to collective and systems change. Our panelists will discuss these approaches from different perspectives, including the power of individuals in social movements and cultural evolution. We hope to kindle fresh insights into how world views form and how human culture can evolve for the common good. https://lnkd.in/eXuPYqq5
