Quantum Strangeness Beneath Our Everyday World

Quantum StrangenessQuantum theory is our best description of the micro-world. Quantum phenomena underly all processes in nature (except possibly gravitation). Some of these phenomena — superposition and entanglement, in particular — seem very strange to those of us living and functioning in the macro-world. Please join UC Berkeley’s Dr. Birgitta Whaley in exploring how quantum strangeness works — in nature and in information and computation — to make many important processes possible that we take for granted.

Wonderfest works every day to promote the scientific outlook. For as little as $1/month, why not become a Wonderfest Patron? As the Medici family were patrons of popular art in old Italy, you can become a patron of popular science and rationality in the modern Bay Area. (And you’ll get that tax-deduction that the Medici never did!) Please become a regular supporter of Wonderfest, and help enlarge the concept of scientific community.
