Illustrate Your Research!

How do information exchange and entropy exchange relate in the quantum regime? This question was studied by the authors of this recent article in Nature Physics. Congrats to the authors to their publication!

Can neural networks be used to determine the position of some target object behind a some translucent medium? The recent Nature Photonics article shows that such networks can even reach the fundamental limits for this estimation. Congrats to the authors!

We made this cover image for Julia Liebert's PhD thesis titled Quantum Information Theoretical Approach to Functional Theories Quantum Information Theoretical Approach to Functional Theories. The mathematical constraints within such theories can be visualized as the polytopes you see in the image. All the best for your next step, Julia!

As a part of the quantum year 2025 a single photon source is travelling around Europe in a suitcase. For this QuanTour a post card design challenge has been set up - let's see how this design will perform...

Thanks to Marion Mallweger for letting me design the cover image for her PhD thesis at Stockholm University. All the best for writing up, Marion!

By recording correlation functions the Hamiltonian of a quantum field simulator can be verified and reconstructed. Congrats to the authors to their publication in Physical Review Research.

Tobias Schmale and Hendrik Weimer investigate an error-correction-like strategy that effectively reduces noise in quantum simulations, rendering their work as evidence for the utility of pre-fault-tolerant quantum error correction. Congrats to their publication in Physical Review Research.

Congrats to Ben Koch and Felix Hummel from Technische Universität Wien. In their recent publication they provide a hint as to why neutron lifetimes are so different when measured from a neutron beam or from neutrons stored in a magnetic bottle.

Helmut Hörner and his colleagues could demonstrate that by using their special setup arbitrary wavefronts of broadband coherent light may be absorbed. Congrats to their publication in Physical Review Letters.

Thorsten Schumm from TU Wien and his collaborators have taken another important step towards realizing an ever more precise nuclear clock. Congrats to their publication in Nature.

In September 2024 we got the chance to organize the Vienna Center for Quantum Science and Technology and TURIS Summer School on the topic of Interfacing Gravity and Quantum Physics. What an event!

For the first time ever a team around Thorsten Schumm from TU Wien and his collaborators from PTB Braunschweig has managed to directly excite the Thorium-229 which is an important step towards the nuclear clock. Congrats to their publication in Physical Review Letters.

Have you ever thought of what a single photon looks like? In a multimode cavity it may be as simple as this.
