Wave-Particle Duality ✍️ In quantum physics, particles like light and electrons can act as both particles and waves. This dual nature is revealed in experiments like the double-slit, where particles create an interference pattern (a wave-like behavior) when not observed, but behave as particles when measured. This paradox defies classical physics and shows the complex nature of reality.

We're using juggling to represent qubits! Here are four independent qubits in uniform superposition of 0 (blue) and 1 (orange). More to come on instagram.com/qubobs/.

What aspects of quantum computing can be illustrated with sound or music? We like to explain Deutch's algorithm with audio phase inversion to isolate audio tracks. How far can we push this idea? Grover search? Amplitude amplification? Quantum Fourier transform? Period-finding?

Maybe every maths classroom should have a box of mathematical toys & at the start of each lesson a toy's picked out & played with & discussed for five minutes before everyone returns to fractions & trigonometry. Might also work for company meeting rooms. Meanwhile, Sam Howison.

#formation En novembre et janvier prochain, Sophie Laplante chercheuse @IRIF_Paris propose 4 formations sur des dispositifs permettant d’aborder les concepts en jeu dans le calcul #quantique. La plupart sont en papier et conçus en collaboration avec @LouVettier, projet @qubobs.

If you'd asked us a year ago we would never have thought it possible to explain the CHSH game and quantum winning strategy without going through all the math. We were wrong. Here are the kits we made for @kempelab to test @sigmacamp this summer

I am urging the entire TCS community to attend the TCS for All inspiration talk to be given by Luca Trevisan to honor his contributions and to be there for him and his family at this very difficult time. I will be sharing the registration link shortly. Registration will be free.

Do you think it's possible to fully explain the quantum strategy for the CHSH game to non-specialists, without using any formal math notation?
0%You must be joking
100%Many have tried & failed
0%Could be possible
0%It's not that hard
