Quan­ten-Simu­la­to­ren: Wenn die Natur ihre Natur­ge­setze ver­rät

Quanten-Simulatoren sind ein völlig neues Werkzeug für die Forschung: Man erklärt Quantenphysik durch andere Quantenphysik. Forschungsteams aus Innsbruck und Wien entwickeln eine neue Methode, die in Zukunft die Verifikation dieser neuen Technologie zulässt.

Drit­tes Ehren­dok­to­rat für Peter Zol­ler

Die Uni­ver­sität von Con­cep­ción in Chile hat dem Quan­ten­phy­siker Peter Zoller für seine wissen­schaft­lichen Leistun­gen in der Quan­ten­optik und Quan­ten­infor­mation ein Ehren­dok­torat ver­liehen. Die Ehrung erfolg­te auch in Wür­di­gung seiner lang­jährigen Ver­bunden­heit mit der latein­ameri­kanischen Uni­ver­sität.

About us


The Institute for Theoretical Physics is part of the Faculty of Mathematics, Computer Science and Physics at the University of Innsbruck. With over 80 employees our institute is one of the largest ones of the University of Innsbruck.

The doctoral college „Atoms, Light and Molecules“ installed in the year 2016 and funded by the Austrian Science Fund FWF serves as a training center for highly qualified and motivated academic talents from the national and international scientific community and we are glad to be part of it. This further intensifies the cooperation among scientists within the Special Research Program BeyondC (SFB F71), which connects theoretical and experimental research groups from Innsbruck and Vienna. The consortium aims to develop and exploit new methods and tools to describe, characterize, validate, and manipulate quantum systems in order to achieve the experimental regime of quantum systems for quantum superiority, the ability of quantum computing devices to solve problems that their classical counterparts cannot.

Additionally the technological capabilities have been improved recently by jointly used state-of-the-art facilities.
