Letos mineva sto let od prelomnega trenutka, ko je nemški fizik Werner Heisenberg izpeljal zakone moderne kvantne fizike. Kar se je začelo kot abstraktna teorija za razlago skrivnostnih pojavov, je v desetletjih preraslo v temelje sodobnih tehnologij. Tokrat smo potovali v svet fotonov in elektronov in ta svet je precej drugačen od tega, ki smo ga vajeni in kot ga spontano razumemo. Če se nam zdi, da je v našem svetu vse obstaja na določenem mestu ob določenem času, je ta svet, kvantni svet, kot mu pravimo, zavit v meglo verjetnosti. Slišati je zapleteno … in najbrž je res kaj na tem. Frekvenca X je bila ob Kvantnem dnevu na Inštitutu Jožef Stefan, da vso to zapletenost vsaj malo razblini. Gostje: dr.

Between 7th and 14th of octobre 2024, Nobel Prize award ceremony take place in Stockholm. Like every year, it's held on 10th December, to coincide with the anniversary of Alfred Nobel's death. Tradition also dictates that the Prize laureates are announced in October. This year's laureates include Alain Aspect, John F. Clauser and Anton Zeilinger in Physics, Carolyn R. Bertozzi, Morton Meldal and K. Barry Sharpless in Chemistry, Svante Paabo in Physiology or Medicine, and Annie Ernaux in Literature. Meanwhile, the Nobel Peace Prize laureates are all being recognised for their role in documenting war crimes and human rights abuses since the Russian invasion of Ukraine in February.

Folge 9. Wir reden in dieser Folge mit Matthew Karnitschnig, Europakorrespondent von „Politico“ in Berlin, über die Wahlen in den USA und Österreich. Und fragen uns, wie viel Wiener Stadt- und Bundespolitik diesmal in Alpbach steckt. Nur zwei Parteichefs (Neos und Grüne) kommen persönlich zur ORF-Elefantenrunde am Freitag. ÖVP, FPÖ und SPÖ schicken eine weibliche Vertretung. In dieser Folge tauchen auch der Nobelpreisträger Anton Zeilinger auf und der Wiener Klimastadtrat Jürgen Czernohorszky,
Entanglement is here to stay. The podcast was recorded just after the announcement of the Nobel Prize in Physics 2022. This Nobel Prize was shared between Alain Aspect, John F. Clauser and Anton Zeilinger, which underlines the importance and the recognition of quantum physics and its strange properties. In particular, entanglement is expected to impact our everyday life very soon. But from proof of concept to practical application there is still way to go. Science Journalist Jens Degett interviewed Niels Obers, Professor of Theoretical Particle Physics and Cosmology at the Niels Bohr Institute (UCPH) and Nordic Institute for Theoretical Physics (NORDITA), about entanglement and its implications for society.
Marie Ringler, Vizepräsidentin des Europäischen Forums Alpbach, über den Moment der Wahrheit, den wir erleben. Ist diese unsere Gegenwart eine Zeit der Entscheidung? Ein Podcast vom Pragmaticus. Das ThemaEgal ob Innovation, Wettbewerbsfähigkeit, Klimawandel oder Digitalisierung: Im Heute werden die Weichen gestellt für die Zukunft. Wesentlich sei, dass Menschen die Möglichkeit des Austauschs haben – über Grenzen hinweg. Das Forum Alpbach hat deshalb die starren Vortragsstrukturen aufgebrochen, um mehr Zufälligkeit und glückliche Begegnungen zuzulassen.Mit 4.000 Besuchern ist das 1945 gegründete Europäische Forum Alpbach heute eine der renommiertesten Diskurs- und Vernetzungsveranstaltungen Europas. Schon vor einigen Jahren änderte es seine Formate, um mehr Dialog zu ermöglichen. Das Herzstück sind immer noch die Programme für die internationalen Stipendiaten und Stipendiatinnen. In diesem Jahr werden besondere Gäste erwartet: Papst Franziskus ebenso wie die Nobelpreisträger Joseph Stiglitz und Anton Zeilinger. Unser Gast in dieser Folge: Marie Ringler ist Vizepräsidentin und Vorstandsmitglied des Europäischen Forums Alpbach und Europa-Chefin von Ashoka, einem Netzwerk zur Förderung von sozialem Unternehmertum.Dies ist ein Podcast von Der Pragmaticus.

Er ist beharrlich seinen Weg gegangen, und am Ende hat er dafür den Nobelpreis erhalten. Anton Zeilinger ist Quantenphysiker, beschäftigt sich also mit den kleinsten Teilchen der Welt, behält aber das grosse Ganze mit im Blick. Religion und Naturwissenschaft sind für ihn kein Widerspruch. Als Kind hat er die Puppen seiner Schwester auseinandergeschnitten. Um herauszufinden, wie sie aufgebaut sind. Heute beamt er kleinste Teilchen von Materie unter der Donau durch oder trifft den Dalai Lama, um ihm die Welt der Quantenphysik näherzubringen. Denn nichts liebt der aktuelle Nobelpreisträger mehr, als anderen Menschen die Schönheit von Formeln zu offenbaren. Dass man bei diesen Nachforschungen auch an ganz elementare Grenzen der Naturwissenschaft gelangt, etwa wenn es um den Zufall geht, spornt Zeilinger umso mehr an. Genau dort komme nämlich die Theologie auf ihre Kosten. Einen Widerspruch zwischen Religion und Naturwissenschaften gibt es für den Quantenphysiker nämlich einzig, wenn beide die jeweiligen Zuständigkeitsgrenzen übertreten. Greift Gott in die Welt ein? Woher kommen die Naturgesetze? Und was treibt den Forscherdrang von Zeilinger an? Olivia Röllin im Gespräch mit dem Nobelpreisträger für Physik 2022, Anton Zeilinger. Diese Sendung ist eine Wiederholung vom 4. Juni 2023.
Warum gibt es das Universum? Endet die Erklärung mit dem Urknall? Wie steht es um die Idee eines Schöpfergottes? Und wie funktionieren solche Erklärungen generell, ob in Naturwissenschaft, Religion oder Philosophie? Gemeinsam mit Alfred gehen wir diesen Fragen nach. weitergedacht Unsere Tipps für alle, die sich weiter mit dem Thema beschäftigen möchten: Zum Urknall und anderen naturwissenschaftlichen Hintergründen empfehlen wir kurz und amüsant “Endlich verstehen, wie alles anfing” (Video, Wissenschaftsmagazin Quarks) sowie ausführlicher “Wo fand der Urknall statt? Was war davor? Und viele andere Fragen” (Artikel, DLR_next). Zu Philosophie und Astrophysik lohnt sich “Was ist Zeit?” mit Norman Sieroka (Kritisches Denken-Podcast) und “Über die Gemeinsamkeiten von Astrophysik und Philosophie” mit Sibylle Anderl (Podcast, Sein und Streit). Zu diesen Themen gibt es auch einige tolle Folgen der Sendungen “Sternstunde Philosophie” und “Sternstunde Religion”: “Auf philosophischer Space-Odyssee” mit Ben Moore, “Glaube und Wissen im Zeitalter der Quantenphysik” mit Michael und Anselm Grün sowie “Anton Zeilinger und der göttliche Zufall”. Zum Schluss auf die beste Erklärung empfehlen wir “Mit dem Rasiermesser durch den Hypothesen-Dschungel” von Matthias Warkus (Artikel, Spektrum der Wissenschaft) sowie zum Staunen und Verstehen “Der bestirnte Himmel über mir, der blaue Planet unter mir” von Geert Keil (Artikel, Philosophie Magazin) und “In der Schönheit steckt Wissen” mit Sibylle Anderl und Peter Galison (Artikel, FAZ). Auf PhilPublica gibt es noch viele weitere Quellen zu allen genannten Themen, zur Philosophie der Wissenschaft zum Beispiel hier, hier, hier, hier und hier sowie zur Philosophie der Religion hier, hier, hier und hier. Gut zugängliche Einführungsbücher für alle, die ein wenig mehr lesen möchten, sind “Das Universum und ich. Die Philosophie der Astrophysik” von Sibylle Anderl (Hanser 2017), “Kosmologie. Geschichte und Systematik in philosophischer Perspektive” von Bernulf Kanitscheider (Reclam 2013) und “Gott denken. Ein Versuch über rationale Theologie” von Holm Tetens (Reclam 2015).

2022 Nobel prize was awarded to Alain Aspect, John F. Clauser and Anton Zeilinger. But just what exactly were their achievements? In this episode, we'll explore the details in an accessible way, from entanglement to bell's inequality. Visit http://www.quirkcast.org/ Discord: https://discord.gg/7c6myZ8Z
In der heutigen Episode freue ich mich einerseits, dass mein Haus und Hof Biologie Prof. Erich Eder sich wieder die Zeit für ein Gespräch nimmt, und nicht nur das, er bringt den Physiker Werner Gruber mit — wie man früher gesagt hat: bekannt (unter anderem) aus Rundfunk und Fernsehen, Kabarett sowie Autor mehrerer Bücher. Der Titel der heutigen Episode ergibt sich gleich daraus, dass wir nur ca. ein bis zwei der von mir überlegten Fragen überhaupt angegangen sind: »Gott und die Welt«. Ich beginne das Gespräch mit einem Zitat des britischen Philosophen Roger Scruton: »The Enlightenment had replaced mystery with mastery.«, Roger Scruton? Was ist Aufklärung? Wer ist Verantwortlich für Fortschritt und Rückschritt? Was ist die Aufgabe der Wissenschaft, welche Rolle spielt Galileo bei der Frage nach dem Warum und nach dem Wie? Welche epistemologische Rolle spielt das Messgerät, die Technik in Wechselwirkung mit Wissenschaft? Was ist der Unterschied zwischen Wissenschaftern und Technikern? Und... ist die Medizin eine Wissenschaft? Erich hat da in der Ansprache zu Medizinstudenten einen pragmatischen Zugang: »Ihr seid eh auch irgendwie Biologen, ihr beschäftigt euch halt nur mit einer Affenart. und da nur mit den Krankheiten und wie man sie heilen kann« In diesem Zusammenhang gibt Werner Gruber auch einen wesentlichen Tipp: was sollten Sie tun, wenn Sie von Außerirdischen entführt werden und auf dieser Reise erkranken? Welche Rolle spielt der Nobelpreis für die Wissenschaft und was ist notwendig um einen Nobelpreis zu gewinnen? Der Österreicher Anton Zeilinger hat zuletzt den Nobelpreis für Physik erhalten, was steckt da fachlich und methodisch dahinter? Ohne die Freiheit, "Sachen zu machen die nicht Mainstream waren", sei seine Forschungsarbeit nicht möglich gewesen, Anton Zeilinger Der in Österreich geborene Physiker Max Perutz, der in den 1930er Jahren vor den Nazis nach England fliehen musste und dort im berühmten Cavendish Laboratorium arbeiten könnte, erhielt einen Nobelpreis mit John Kendrew für seine Arbeiten am Haemoglobin. Später leitete er selbst das Labor und in dieser Zeit erhielten neun (!) seiner Mitarbeiter ebenfalls Nobelpreise. Auf die Frage, wie er das Labor führt und diesen Erfolg ermöglicht hat: »no politics, no committees, no reports, no referees, no interviews; just gifted, highly motivated people, picked by a few men of good judgement.« Sind wir an unseren Universitäten für Forschung und Lehre richtig aufgestellt? Was könnten und sollten wir verändern? Welche Rolle spielen schräge Vögeln in der Forschung und erlauben wir diese überhaupt noch an den Unis und Forschungseinrichtungen? »Quantität in der Wissenschaft hat massiv zugenommen, aber nicht die Qualität« Welche Rolle spielt die Ruhe und Nachdenken in Bildung und Wissenschaft? Schule kommt immerhin vom griechischen σχολή (scholē) was Muße bedeutet. Nutzen wir die Strukturen, die wir eingeführt haben (Universität, Fachhochschule) richtig? »Ich würde heute nicht mehr studieren wollen« Was ist die wichtigste Erfindung des 20. Jahrhunderts? Wie grenzen sich Wissenschaft und Aktivismus ab, und welche Rolle spielt Wissenschaft und Expertise in politischen Entscheidungsprozessen? Warum halten sich so viele Menschen heute für Experten einer Sache (z.B. der Physik) ohne auch nur die relevanten Grundkenntnisse zu besitzen — wer ist nun ein Experte? In den Medien ist jeder Wissenschafter (oder jemand der wie ein solcher wirkt) Experte (für eh alles)? »Wir forcieren in der Politik nicht die Personen, die auch Mut zum Versagen haben« Gefühl oder Zahlen? Wie ein Statistiker die Küche des Schweizerhauses optimiert. Wie haben wir die Covid-Pandemie bewältigt? Was den Bürgermeister von Rostock geleitet hat und welche Kritik aktuelle Cochran Studie aufwerfen. Was hat es mit Plagiatsjägern und Betrug in der Ausbildung auf sich? Hat die höhere Bildung überhaupt den Wert den wir ihr zuschreiben, oder ist sie im Wesentlichen Signalisierung? »Es ist eigentlich wurscht wo es hinführt, ich persönlich will es wissen.« Referenzen Andere Episoden Episode 67: Wissenschaft, Hype und Realität — ein Gespräch mit Stephan Schleim Episode 50: Die Geburt der Gegenwart und die Entdeckung der Zukunft — ein Gespräch mit Prof. Achim Landwehr Episode 48: Evolution, ein Gespräch mit Erich Eder Episode 47: Große Worte Episode 44: Was ist Fortschritt?

Andy was an outstanding science communicator and presented at many events with your host Brian Keating and other colleagues from the Arthur C. Clark Center For Human Imagination and UC San Diego. This is a replay recording of one of his last public appearences where he discussed one of his favorite subjects, Quantum Entanglement and Bell's Inequality. Einstein famously thought Quantum entanglement was impossible and called it spooky action at a distance. Dr. Friedman was a Principle collaborator on an experiment of such galactic scale that it was the subject of a PBS NOVA Feature documentary, Einstein's Quantum Riddle. Along with Andy's articulate explanation of the cosmic bell test experiment using distant Quasars, your host professor Brian Keating moderates a panel that includes Jason Gallicchio (Professor of Physics, Harvey Mudd College) and David Brin (physicist and Hugo & Nebula-winning author). As a testament to Andy's vision and science acumen, since this event, Andy's collaborator, Anton Zeilinger shared the 2022 Nobel Prize in Physics with John Clauser and Alain Aspect, for experiments with entangled photons, further establishing the violation of Bell inequalities and pioneering quantum information science. Their results have cleared the way for new technology based on quantum information profound implications.

”You have to reinvent yourself every couple of years. It's absolutely important. It's necessary for me to make my life interesting. Life is too short.” – Meet physics laureate Anton Zeilinger. With an endlessly curious mind, he loves exploring new paths in the scientific field of quantum physics. He also speaks about his love of sailing and why the number 42 holds a special place in his heart. The host of this podcast is Adam Smith, Chief Scientific Officer at Nobel Prize Outreach.Nobel Prize Conversations is produced in cooperation with Fundación Ramón Areces. Hosted on Acast.

Der theoretische Physiker Prof. Dr. Karl Svozil geht in seinem Buch unter anderem Alien-Entführungen und geheimen UFO-Programmen der US-Regierung auf den Grund. Vorbei die Zeiten, in denen man in der Buchhandlung angefeixt wurde, wenn man ein UFO-Buch bestellte. Seit einigen Jahren werden immer mehr Fakten über diese mysteriösen Flugobjekte bekannt und je mehr bekannt wird, desto mehr Fragen tun sich auf. Fragen, mit denen sich Wissenschaftler bislang nur sehr zögerlich beschäftigt haben, und wenn doch, dann im Geheimen. Und auch das ändert sich jetzt endlich. Denn immer mehr hochkarätige Wissenschaftler wagen sich inzwischen mit dem Thema an die Öffentlichkeit. Der kürzlich pensionierte theoretische Physiker Prof. Dr. Karl Svozil von der TU Wien publizierte einst gemeinsam mit Nobelpreisträger Anton Zeilinger. Seit vielen Jahren forscht er in den Bereichen Quantenmechanik, Physik der Raumzeit, Quantenfeldtheorie des Vakuums - und auch UFOs. Sein Fachbuch "UFO - A Science (Fiction)" steht kurz vor der Veröffentlichung in einem renommierten Wissenschaftsverlag. Einzigartig ist das große Spektrum an Fällen und Theorien, die in seine Analyse eingehen - und seine Schlussfolgerungen. Für Prof. Svozil ist klar: "Berichte über Entführungen und geborgene Fluggeräte können einen Physiker nicht kalt lassen."

Två ljuspartiklar som är vitt åtskilda, kan ändå vara sammanflätade på ett sådant sätt att den ena märker vad den andra utsätts för. Det handlar årets Nobelpris i fysik om. Vi har träffat forskarna bakom experimenten med det märkliga fenomenet - som fortfarande ingen riktigt förstår. Sammanflätning är en av de märkliga effekter som finns inom kvantmekaniken. Albert Einstein kallade detta på sin tid för "spöklik avståndsverkan" och ansåg att det måste finnas en kompletterande förklaring, någon information partiklarna bär med sig som gör effekten begriplig. Men John Clauser i Kalifornien, Alain Aspect i Paris och Anton Zeilinger i Wien har alla gjort experiment med sammanflätade fotoner, som visat att det inte finns några sådana "dolda variabler". Vi har träffat alla tre forskarna. Medverkande: John Clauser, Nobelpristagare i fysik 2022; Alain Aspect, Nobelpristagare i fysik 2022; Anton Zeilinger, Nobelpristagare i fysik 2022. Programmet är en repris från 5 december 2022.Reportrar: Gustaf Klarin gustaf.klarin@sr.seCamilla Widebeck camilla.widebeck@sr.seProducent: Björn Gunér bjorn.guner@sr.se
In 2022, the Nobel prize for physics was awarded to a trio of scientists for their work on the fundamentals of quantum mechanics.

This Saturday sees the 2022 Nobel Prize award ceremony take place in Stockholm. Like every year, it's held on 10th December, to coincide with the anniversary of Alfred Nobel's death. Tradition also dictates that the Prize laureates are announced in October. This year's laureates include Alain Aspect, John F. Clauser and Anton Zeilinger in Physics, Carolyn R. Bertozzi, Morton Meldal and K. Barry Sharpless in Chemistry, Svante Paabo in Physiology or Medicine, and Annie Ernaux in Literature. Meanwhile, the Nobel Peace Prize laureates are all being recognised for their role in documenting war crimes and human rights abuses since the Russian invasion of Ukraine in February.

En kvantdator kan jobba med flera beräkningar samtidigt och bli mycket snabbare än en vanlig dator. Och en kvantklocka kan inte bara hålla tiden väldigt exakt utan också ge oss mer precist GPS och kanske hjälpa oss att hitta malm i marken. Två ljuspartiklar, fotoner, som är vitt åtskilda, kan ändå vara sammanflätade på ett sådant sätt att den ena märker vad den andra utsätts för. Det handlar årets Nobelpris i fysik om, och detta märkliga kvantmekaniska fenomen kan utnyttjas för att kryptera information så att den inte går att avläsa utan att bli avslöjad. Vi skissar en framtid där kvantteknologi ger oss exakta kvantklockor, snabba kvantdatorer, nya mätredskap och bättre logistikplanering. Fysikpristagarna själva säger att sådana tillämpningar är för andra att fundera på, men hoppas att det går att dra sådan konkret nytta av deras forskning. Men, säger Anton Zeilinger i Wien, några så kallade esoteriska fenomen vill han inte ta med i en sådan diskussion. Medverkande: Gunnar Björk, professor emeritus i tillämpad fysik vid KTH; Jan-Åke Larsson, professor i informationskodning vid Linköpings universitet; Alain Aspect och Anton Zeilinger, nobelpristagare i fysik 2022.

Två ljuspartiklar som är vitt åtskilda, kan ändå vara sammanflätade på ett sådant sätt att den ena märker vad den andra utsätts för. Det handlar årets Nobelpris i fysik om. Vi har träffat forskarna bakom experimenten med det märkliga fenomenet - som fortfarande ingen riktigt förstår. Sammanflätning är en av de märkliga effekter som finns inom kvantmekaniken. Albert Einstein kallade detta på sin tid för "spöklik avståndsverkan" och ansåg att det måste finnas en kompletterande förklaring, någon information partiklarna bär med sig som gör effekten begriplig. Men John Clauser i Kalifornien, Alain Aspect i Paris och Anton Zeilinger i Wien har alla gjort experiment med sammanflätade fotoner, som visat att det inte finns några sådana "dolda variabler". Vi har träffat alla tre forskarna. Medverkande: John Clauser, Nobelpristagare i fysik 2022; Alain Aspect, Nobelpristagare i fysik 2022; Anton Zeilinger, Nobelpristagare i fysik 2022.

Entanglement is here to stay. The Nobel Prize in Physics 2022, shared between Alain Aspect, John F. Clauser and Anton Zeilinger, underlines the importance and the recognition of quantum physics and its strange properties. In particular, entanglement is expected to impact our everyday life very soon. But from proof of concept to practical application there is still way to go. Science Journalist Jens Degett interviewed Niels Obers, Professor of Theoretical Particle Physics and Cosmology at the Niels Bohr Institute (UCPH) and Nordic Institute for Theoretical Physics (NORDITA), about entanglement and its implications for society.
Mit Verleihung des diesjährigen Physiknobelpreises für Forschungen zur Quantenverschränkung ist eines der faszinierendsten Gebiete der modernen Physik in den Fokus der Öffentlichkeit gerückt. Der US-Forscher John F. Clauser, sein französischer Kollege Alain Aspect und der Österreicher Anton Zeilinger haben in den letzten Jahrzehnten wegweisende Experimente mit verschränkten Photonenpaaren erdacht und durchgeführt. Dabei wurde nachgewiesen, dass Der Beitrag Freigeist (56) • Nobelpreis für die Grundlagen der Quantentheorie • Hör-Kolumne von Helmut Fink erschien zuerst auf Kortizes-Podcast.
Kas Nobeli füüsika-auhinna saaja koostöö Hiina riigiga on ohtlik? Tõepoolest teeb Austria füüsik Anton Zeilinger, selle aasta Nobeli füüsikapreemia laureaat, koostööd Hiinaga kvanttehnoloogia vallas. See puudutab pealtkuulamiskindlat sidet. Veinidi kõhedusttekitav. Mida aga selles arvata? Uurime ka, et milline on masinõppe ja kosmosetehnoloogia seos ja kuidas saab toime tulla aina kasvava kosmoseprügiga. Kas Euroopa Liidus hakkavad ka algoritmid inimeste üle kohut mõistma nagu see toimub Ameerika Ühendriikides? Paljudele muudelegi küsimustele leiate vastuse seekordsest Kukkuvast Õunast, kus saatejuht Marek Strandberg on külla kutsunud majandusministeeriumi kosmosevaldkonna juhi Paul Liiase ja andmete ning tehisintellekti nõuniku Marily Hendriksoni.
What's the future of our galaxy? How did we come to be? What does it mean to live a small, finite life in a vast, eternal universe? Rock-star English professor of particle physics at the University of Manchester, Brian Cox CBE is bringing his new show Horizons: A 21st Century Space Odyssey, to New Zealand in December. Backgrounded by this year's Nobel Prize in Physics going to Alain Aspect, John Clauser and Anton Zeilinger for their research into Entangled States, essentially their experiments in quantum mechanics that lay the groundwork for Space computation, Kathryn spoke with Brian Cox to discuss the latest advances in our understanding of black holes, quantum theory, planetary science, biology, astronomy and cosmology, and how he covers these off in his new show.

In Folge 63 hat Ruth wieder Corona und keiner von uns einen Nobelpreis. Dafür reden wir über die Ergebnisse der DART-Mission und den absurden Vorschlag, Satelliten für Werbung am Nachthimmel einzusetzen. In der Hauptgeschichte erzählt Florian von der Vorhersage von Supernova-Explosionen. Evi lässt sich von Lyman Spitzer inspirieren und wir beantworten Fragen aus der Hörerschaft über nördliche Teleskope, Podcasts im Sumpf und Gravitationsgeschwindigkeitsmessungen.
Welcome to another episode of The New Quantum Era Podcast hosted by Kevin Rowney and Sebastian Hassinger. Today, they are joined by Steve Girvin, professor of Physics at Yale who has a central role in the Yale Quantum Institute, which has been ground zero for the recent development in superconducting qubits. The topics we had initially planned needed some adjustment, because on the day of the interview, the Nobel Prize in Physics was awarded to three scientists for their work experimentally verifying the theory behind entanglement, the source of much of quantum computing's power. Alain Aspect, John F. Clauser, and Anton Zeilinger were recognized for their experiments in an area that has broad implications for secure information transfer and quantum computing. Sebastian, Kevin, and Steve have an interesting talk about some of the history of the superconducting qubits and the transmon in particular, which is a basis for most of the modern superconducting qubits on the market. They also cover the topic of diversity, quality, and inclusion. Key Takeaways:[3:43] Steve introduces himself.[5:23] Steve shares his primary domains of research.[9:50] Was there a sort of self-awareness in the Yale group that Steve and his team were taking radically? Were they considering a different approach that could solve some of the challenges of the other models that existed at the time?[14:38] Steve talks about how relatively quickly the hardware can be fabricated to be able to crank out, iterations, variations, and experiments. [17:27] Is there room for optimism about the new dimensions of research related to MER material science? [19:25] Steve shares his thoughts on the news about the 2022 Nobel Prize in Physics.[22:18] Steve talks about how some of the epistemological questions that these paradoxes present, feel really mind-bending to many people on the outside of physics.[25:38] Steve addresses how hard it is to predict the future.[27:21] Does Steve consider himself an optimist about the progress of quantum computing?[30:10] How can we get reliable performance out of an inherently, very unreliable system?[33:22] Steve helps us fill in the narrative, in the history of where GKP codes are situated and their significance to contemporary developments.[41:14] Steve talks about the basic steps of the algorithm to do the error correction.[44:01] The history of computer science is very, uh, white, male, and, uh, dominated in nature, Steve shares his thoughts about diversity, equity, and inclusion.[48:34] What we can do to change the composition of the field when the underlying foundations of the way science is done in the lab have a such rigid history of hierarchy, power structures, and power dynamics that are so easily abused?[55:02] Sebastian and Kevin share their thoughts on an amazing conversation with Steve Girvin, Mentioned in this episode:Visit The New Quantum Era PodcastTuring's Cathedral: The Origins of the Digital Universe, George DysonDocumentary: Picture a ScientistTweetables and Quotes:“A very productive part of my childhood was having nothing to do, but to dream.“ — Steve Girvin “The simpler you keep things, the easier it's to do things “ — Steve Girvin “Einstein really made massive contributions to the development of the quantum theory. “ — Steve Girvin “The way we test whether our quantum computer is a quantum computer is checking first thing in the morning to calibrate it, if it's doing the thing that Einstein said was impossible then, it's working.“ — Steve Girvin “Looking ahead, it's very, very hard to predict where this is going, but along the way, there's such fantastic. basic science and quantum.” — Steve Girvin“When you're doing a hiring search, it's not about adding constraints, like interviewing more women…It's about removing constraints. You should look wider. There's a theorem that if you release constraints, the optimum cannot get worse, it can only get better. ” — Steve Girvin
2022. aasta Nobeli füüsikaauhinna said kolm kvantfüüsikut – Alain Aspect, John Clauser ja Anton Zeilinger. Oma töödega lükkasid nad lõplikult ümber Albert Einsteini kõhklused selle kohta, et kvantfüüsika pole ikka päris füüsika aga hoopis mingi justkui mõnda praktilist laadi ülesannet lahendava puuduliku teooriaga, mis eirab peamist: Albert Einsteini arusaama selle kohta, et miski ei saa liikuda valgusest kiiremini siinses Universumis. Aga tuleb välja, et saab. Hetkega saab teleporteeruda kvantinformatsioon. Sellest, miks see nii on ja kuidas see toimub, räägivad Tallinna Tehnikaülikooli professor Jaan Kalda ja saatejuht Marek Strandberg. Kui te ennem ei ole kvantfüüsikast arus saanud, siis selle saate kuulamise järgselt on vähemalt kaks võimalust: kas asi läheb paremaks, selle arusaamise mõttes, või mitte.

No podemos hablar sólo de teoría revolucionaria o de hipótesis disruptivas con el modelo estándar… La física cuántica es, tal vez, el mayor triunfo intelectual del ser humano, y es una realidad experimental, como demuestran las investigaciones de los recientemente galardonados con el Premio Nobel de Física, John Clauser, Alain Aspect y Anton Zeilinger, partiendo del imprescindible trabajo previo de John Bell y que demuestra el entrelazamiento cuántico y sus enormes propiedades, como por ejemplo, la teleportación aplicada al intercambio de información entre partículas distantes entre sí pero conectadas por efecto cuántico. Todo un desafío para la “lógica” o la física convencional, representada por el mismísimo Einstein y que, hablando de informática cuántica, apunta a cambiar radicalmente nuestro mundo. Hablaremos de decoherencia, de teoría cuántica de campos o, por qué no, de la Teoría de Cuerdas y la de los mundos… Y lo hacemos sin temor a cuantizarnos en múltiples versiones de nosotros, porque estamos en muy buena compañía. Nuestro invitado, lo tiene claro y lo convierte en título de su maravilloso libro, La revolución cuántica (Ed. Sine Qua Non / B). Sube a la Nabucodonosor Alberto Casas, doctor en Física teórica, para ofrecernos “un recorrido por los mecanismos ocultos de la realidad” No falta el Planeta Segovia de Don Víctor y unos cuanticos comics para recomendar… Escuchar audio
Folge: Physik-Nobelpreis für Anton Zeilinger
Le 4 octobre, le prix Nobel de physique a été attribué au Français Alain Aspect ainsi qu'aux chercheurs américain John F. Clauser et autrichien Anton Zeilinger, pour leurs travaux sur « l'intrication quantique ». Entretien avec le quinzième lauréat français du Nobel de physique. ► À lire aussi : Le Nobel de physique récompense trois chercheurs, dont un Français, pour leurs travaux sur la mécanique quantique
Wir beginnen den ersten Teil unseres Programms mit einigen wichtigen Nachrichten dieser Woche. Als Erstes sprechen wir über die Reaktion der Staats- und Regierungschefs der G7-Länder auf die Forderung der Ukraine nach mehr Raketenabwehrsystemen im Anschluss an die jüngsten russischen Angriffe auf zivile Ziele. In den folgenden drei Nachrichtenstorys diskutieren wir über die Verleihung der diesjährigen Nobelpreise in drei verschiedenen Kategorien. Wir beginnen mit der Entscheidung des Nobel-Komitees, den Friedensnobelpreis 2022 an drei Aktivisten bzw. Organisationen aus der Ukraine, Russland und Belarus zu verleihen. Anschließend erfahren wir im wissenschaftlichen Teil unseres Programms mehr über die drei Gewinner des diesjährigen Nobelpreises für Physik und ihren Beitrag zur Quantenmechanik. Und zum Schluss sprechen wir über die französische Autorin Annie Ernaux, die den Literaturnobelpreis erhalten hat. Im zweiten Teil unseres Programms, „Trending in Germany“, sprechen wir über den Österreicher Anton Zeilinger, einen der drei diesjährigen Physik-Nobelpreisträger. Wir werden außerdem die Entscheidung der Münchener Pinakothek diskutieren, ein Bild von Adolf Ziegler auszustellen. Ziegler war der Lieblingsmaler Adolf Hitlers. Er war während der Nazi-Zeit dafür zuständig, deutsche Museen zu „säubern“ und alles zu entfernen, was nicht den Kunstvorstellungen der Nazis entsprach. Sollte dieses Bild abgehängt werden, oder können wir etwas daraus lernen? G-7-Staaten versprechen der Ukraine Raketenabwehrsysteme nach russischem Angriff Friedensnobelpreis für Aktivisten aus der Ukraine, Russland und Belarus Physik-Nobelpreis für 50 Jahre Forschung zur Quantenverschränkung Literaturnobelpreis für die französische Autorin Annie Ernaux „Mr. Beam“ gewinnt dreifach geteilten Nobelpreis für Physik Nazi-Kunst in München
Anton Zeilinger ist Physik- Nobelpreisträger 2022. Der österreichische Wissenschaftler hat sich in den letzten Jahrzehnten intensiv mit Quanten beschäftigt. Dabei entdeckte er die Quantenteleportation, die Übertragung der Information von einem Teilchen auf ein anderes. Dieses Phänomen spielt eine wichtige Rolle für Quanten- Computer. Nach Zeilingers Überzeugung kann man Gott weder beweisen noch widerlegen. Gott steht für ihn außerhalb naturwissenschaftlicher Forschungen. Wer dafür offen ist, der findet deutliche Hinweise für die Existenz Gottes. Irgendwie gehört Gott aber zu einem anderen Bereich der Wirklichkeit als die Physik. Die Wirklichkeit ist dabei natürlich immer größer als die Erkenntnisse momentaner Wissenschaft.
Como todos los años, en la primera semana de octubre se han anunciado los premios Nobel de este año: el lunes le tocó a Medicina, el martes a Física y el miércoles a Química. En este capítulo os hablamos brevemente de cada uno de ellos, para que sepáis qué es lo que han premiado los Comités Nobel en esta ocasión: - El premio Nobel en Fisiología o Medicina ha sido para la parte más fisiológica, pues ha recaído íntegramente en el sueco Svante Pääbo “por sus descubrimientos sobre los genomas de especies humanas extintas y sus aportaciones a la comprensión de la evolución humana”. - El premio Nobel de Física se ha dividido en tres partes iguales, y ha sido para el francés Alain Aspect, el estadounidense John Clauser y el austríaco Anton Zeilinger, “por sus experimentos con fotones entrelazados, que establecieron la violación de las desigualdades de Bell y dieron comienzo a la era de la información cuántica” - El premio Nobel de Química también ha sido tripartito, y ha ido a parar al estadounidense Barry Sharpless (que ya lo había ganado en esta misma categoría en el año 2001), el danés Morten Meldal y la estadounidense Carolyn Bertozzi, “por el desarrollo de la química clic y la química bioortogonal” Si queréis aprender más sobre el premio de Física de este año, os lo hemos contado en más detalle en nuestro pódcast hermano, Aparici en Órbita, en el capítulo s05e03. Este programa se emitió originalmente el 5 de octubre de 2022. Podéis escuchar el resto de audios de La Brújula en la app de Onda Cero y en su web, ondacero.es
Episodio 428 con Luca e Valeria ai microfoni, vostri commentatori per la settimana più calda di premi dell'anno.Valeria entra in sciabolata morbida parlandoci del premio Nobel per la Medicina, assegnato a Svante Pääbo per le sue scoperte riguardanti il genoma di ominidi estinti già conosciuti, come i Neanderthal, e di una nuova specie proveniente da Denisova, nella Siberia meridionale. Inoltre le sue ricerche hanno confermato l'avvenuto trasferimento di geni tra le due specie e Homo sapiens.Nel nostro intervento esterno Leonardo intervista David Clement che ci parlerà del Nobel per la Fisica, assegnato ad Alain Aspect, John F. Clauser e Anton Zeilinger per le loro scoperte sull‘entanglement quantistico e le sue applicazioni.Dopo una barza cantautoriale, Luca ci parla del Nobel per la Chimica, assegnato a Carolyn R. Bertozzi, Morten Meldal e Barry Sharpless per le loro scoperte sulla click-chemistry e chimica biortogonale, basate rispettivamente su reazioni semplici e immediate (a click letteralmente) e la loro applicazione a sistemi biologici.
Assegnato il Premio Nobel per la Fisica 2022 al francese Alain Aspect, all'americano John Clauser e all'austriaco Anton Zeilinger per i loro esperimenti rivoluzionari che hanno aperto la strada alla scienza dell'informazione quantistica. A che punto siamo con i computer quantistici? Lo chiediamo a Fabio Sciarrino, fisico dell'Università La Sapienza di Roma e responsabile del Quantum Lab. Lo svedese Svante Paabo è stato insignito del Nobel per la Fisiologia e la Medicina 2022 per le sue scoperte sul genoma degli ominidi. Guido Barbujani, docente di genetica all'università di Ferrara, ci spiega come sia possibile studiare il DNA antico e quali informazioni possa fornirci.
Acompaña a Araceli Toledo y Ricardo Cartas en una emisión más de la revista cultural De eso se trata, espacio de ciencia, de cultura, de gastronomía, de libros y más, de lunes a viernes de 08:30 a 10:00 horas. En El invitado, el Dr. Arturo Fernández, director de divulgación científica BUAP; en conjunto con el Dr. Luis Arevalo, analizarán los Premios Nobel 2022. El Premio Nobel de Física 2022 lo obtuvieron el francés Alain Aspect, el estadounidense John Clauser y el austriaco Anton Zeilinger, por sus descubrimientos sobre el entrelazamiento cuántico y su aplicación en la informática.
For the scientific community, the Nobel Prize announcements are an important part of the yearly science calendar. The award is one of the most widely celebrated and gives us a moment to reflect on some of the leading scientific work taking place around the world. This year's winners include Alain Aspect, John F. Clauser, and Anton Zeilinger for their work on quantum entanglement. Carolyn R. Bertozzi, Morten Meldal, and K. Barry Sharpless for their work on click chemistry. And Svante Pääbo for his work on sequencing Neanderthal DNA. To understand the science behind the award winners better, we've invited a variety of speakers to help us understand their work better. Award winner, Carolyn R. Bertozzi, Professor of Chemistry at Stanford, explains the basics behind click chemistry, a practice that has helped us to study molecules and their interactions in living things without interfering with natural biological processes. Mateja Hajdinjak, Postdoctoral Training Fellow at the Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Biology, celebrated alongside her former PhD. tutor, Svante Paabo in Germany this week. We talk to her about his significance in the development of DNA sequencing in ancient humans. And Professor Shohini Ghose of the Institute of Quantum Computing at Waterloo University in Canada joins us to explain the complicated world of quantum entanglement. Also this week, we meet Jessica Thompson, Assistant Professor of Anthropology at Yale University, who's been considering how new parents manage the tricky job of childcare while out on fieldwork. She's behind a new survey encouraging fellow scientists to consider how to approach the challenge of parental duties differently in the future. Human sexuality comes in many forms, from exclusively heterosexual to exclusively homosexual. But seeing as homosexuality creates apparent reproductive and evolutionary disadvantages, listener Ahmed from Oslo wants to know: why are some people gay? CrowdScience presenter Caroline Steel examines what science can - and can't - tell us about the role of nature, nurture and evolution in human sexual attraction. She asks a geneticist what we know of the oft-debated 'gay gene', as well as looking into why homosexual men on average have more older brothers than heterosexual men. Caroline looks into the role of nurture with a developmental psychologist to answer a question from a CrowdScience listener from Myanmar. He wonders if the distant relationship he has with his own father has impacted his own feelings of attraction. She also learns about research into a group of people in Samoa who may shed light on the benefits of traditionally non-reproductive relationships for communities as a whole.

El científico sueco Svante Pääbo ha sido la gran sorpresa de los Nobel de este año. Un premio, el de Medicina o Fisiología, más que merecido para un investigador cuya carrera ha estado a caballo entre la genética y de una disciplina que ni siquiera podía imaginar que iba a rozar el galardón: la paleoantropología. Hemos analizado sus contribuciones a la ciencia con un colaborador suyo en España, Antonio Rosas, investigador del Museo Nacional de Ciencias Naturales (CSIC). Hemos informado de la concesión del Nobel de Física al francés Alain Aspect, el estadounidense John Clauser y al austriaco Anton Zeilinger, pioneros de las tecnologías de la información cuántica; y del Nobel de Química a los estadounidenses Carolyn Bertozzi y Barry Sharpless y al danés Morten Meldal por el desarrollo de la química del clic y la química bioortogonal. José Antonio López Guerrero nos ha hablado del empleo de virus bacteriófagos contra bacterias superresistentes a los antibióticos. Con Enrique Sacristán nos hemos acercado a la figura de la oceanógrafa española Ángeles Alvariño, que este mes hubiera cumplido 106 años, con testimonio de Alberto González-Garcés (IEO/CSIC); y del hallazgo en China de un grupo excepcional de peces fósiles, entre los que aparecen los primeros vertebrados con mandíbulas y dientes, con testimonio de Humberto Ferrón (universidades de Valencia y Bristol). Jesús Martínez Frías nos ha explicado que en la Luna hay distintos tipos de agua, y uno de ellos podría formarse a partir de los iones de hidrógeno y oxígeno que escapan de la atmósfera terrestre.

¿De qué habla la teoría cuántica? Desde finales de la década de 1920 sabemos que puede interpretarse como una teoría de probabilidades, que no nos habla exactamente de los objetos físicos, sino de qué información podemos extraer de ellos – o, visto de otra manera, de cuáles van a ser los resultados de los experimentos que podemos hacer sobre los objetos físicos. En aquel momento esta interpretación dejó muy insatisfechos a algunos físicos, entre ellos Albert Einstein y Erwin Schrödinger, que trataron de explorar ideas alternativas. ¿Y si la cuántica era sólo una "versión deficiente" de verdadera teoría física? Quizá, con un poco de trabajo, podríamos encontrar una teoría satisfactoria, que nos hablase realmente de las sillas y las mesas, y no de los experimentos que podemos hacer con sillas y mesas. Tal vez esa teoría estaría desprovista de probabilidades y nos sabría decir con verdadera certeza dónde están los objetos y cuáles son sus propiedades. Llamamos a esas posibles "teorías maestras de la física" teorías de variables ocultas. Este año el Nobel de Física ha premiado a tres investigadores, Alain Aspect, John Clauser y Anton Zeilinger, que diseñaron los experimentos que demostraron que las teorías de variables ocultas no pueden existir. O, al menos, no pueden existir en la forma en que Einstein y otros querían. En el programa de hoy os hablamos de este debate sobre el corazón de la teoría cuántica, que empezó con Albert Einstein y Niels Bohr y que, con algunos cambios, llega hasta la actualidad. Con ello –esperamos– arrojaremos un poco de luz sobre el Nobel de este año. Para ello contamos con la ayuda de Francis Villatoro, divulgador y profesor en la Universidad de Málaga, y autor del blog La Ciencia de la Mula Francis.

El científico sueco Svante Pääbo ha sido la gran sorpresa de los Nobel de este año. Un premio, el de Medicina o Fisiología, más que merecido para un investigador cuya carrera ha estado a caballo entre la genética y de una disciplina que ni siquiera podía imaginar que iba a rozar el galardón: la paleoantropología. Hemos analizado sus contribuciones a la ciencia con un colaborador suyo en España, Antonio Rosas, investigador del Museo Nacional de Ciencias Naturales (CSIC). Hemos informado de la concesión del Nobel de Física al francés Alain Aspect, el estadounidense John Clauser y al austriaco Anton Zeilinger, pioneros de las tecnologías de la información cuántica; y del Nobel de Química a los estadounidenses Carolyn Bertozzi y Barry Sharpless y al danés Morten Meldal por el desarrollo de la química del clic y la química bioortogonal. José Antonio López Guerrero nos ha hablado del empleo de virus bacteriófagos contra bacterias superresistentes a los antibióticos. Con Enrique Sacristán nos hemos acercado a la figura de la oceanógrafa española Ángeles Alvariño, que este mes hubiera cumplido 106 años, con testimonio de Alberto González-Garcés (IEO/CSIC); y del hallazgo en China de un grupo excepcional de peces fósiles, entre los que aparecen los primeros vertebrados con mandíbulas y dientes, con testimonio de Humberto Ferrón (universidades de Valencia y Bristol). Jesús Martínez Frías nos ha explicado que en la Luna hay distintos tipos de agua, y uno de ellos podría formarse a partir de los iones de hidrógeno y oxígeno que escapan de la atmósfera terrestre.

For the scientific community, the Nobel Prize announcements are an important part of the yearly science calendar. The award is one of the most widely celebrated and gives us a moment to reflect on some of the leading scientific work taking place around the world. This year's winners include Alain Aspect, John F. Clauser, and Anton Zeilinger for their work on quantum entanglement. Carolyn R. Bertozzi, Morten Meldal, and K. Barry Sharpless for their work on click chemistry. And Svante Pääbo for his work on sequencing Neanderthal DNA. To understand the science behind the award winners better, we've invited a variety of speakers to help us understand their work better. Award winner, Carolyn R. Bertozzi, Professor of Chemistry at Stanford, explains the basics behind click chemistry, a practice that has helped us to study molecules and their interactions in living things without interfering with natural biological processes. Mateja Hajdinjak, Postdoctoral Training Fellow at the Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Biology, celebrated alongside her former PhD. tutor, Svante Paabo in Germany this week. We talk to her about his significance in the development of DNA sequencing in ancient humans. And Professor Shohini Ghose of the Institute of Quantum Computing at Waterloo University in Canada joins us to explain the complicated world of quantum entanglement. Also this week, we meet Jessica Thompson, Assistant Professor of Anthropology at Yale University, who's been considering how new parents manage the tricky job of childcare while out on fieldwork. She's behind a new survey encouraging fellow scientists to consider how to approach the challenge of parental duties differently in the future. (Image: A monument to Nobel Prize founder Alfred Nobel.

Los físicos Alain Aspect, John F. Clauser y Anton Zeilinger recibieron el premio Nobel de física 2022 a principios de octubre, por su investigación pionera en el entrelazamiento cuántico, el cual, por cierto, se vive desde hace más de una década en el Taller de Teatro Cuántico de mi invención. Estos descubrimientos inspiraron a su vez al Potencial Transferido, el experimento hecho en la UNAM y que comprueba la teoría Sintérgica de Jacobo Grinberg Zylberbaum.
Der Quantenphysiker Anton Zeilinger ist seit den 1970er-Jahren der erste Österreicher, der einen Nobelpreis für Naturwissenschaften erhält. Tanja Traxler aus der STANDARD-Wissenschaftsredaktion spricht heute darüber, wer Anton Zeilinger eigentlich ist und wie seine Forschungsarbeit unser tägliches Leben beeinflusst. Wir fragen nach, wie genau Quanten-Zeleportation funktioniert und welche technologischen Fortschritte sie uns in der Zukunft bringen kann. Und wir stellen die Frage, wie sich dieser Nobelpreis auf den Stellenwert von Wissenschaft und Forschung in Österreich auswirken könnte. STANDARD-Korrespondent Klaus Stimeder spricht außerdem über die Rückeroberungen in den ukrainischen Provinzen Donezk, Cherson, Charkiw und Luhansk durch die ukrainische Armee. **Hat Ihnen dieser Podcast gefallen?** Mit einem STANDARD-Abonnement können Sie unsere Arbeit unterstützen und mithelfen, Journalismus mit Haltung auch in Zukunft sicherzustellen.

*) US boosts arms aid as Ukraine expands battle gains The United States has announced more weapons for Ukraine's army, which claims sweeping gains along two major battlefronts this week. The US will ship four more Himars precision rocket launchers, 32 artillery pieces, 75,000 artillery rounds and 200,000 rounds of small arms ammunition to Ukraine. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy says his forces have retaken "dozens" of villages in the east and south. The Russian military, too, concedes that it has incurred losses. *) Musk offers to close Twitter buyout deal at original price Elon Musk has offered to push through with his buyout of Twitter at the original agreed price, as a trial over his efforts to withdraw from the deal looms. The world's richest man has said in a filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission that he sent Twitter a letter vowing to honour the contract. The latest twist in the long-running saga comes ahead of the high-stakes court battle launched by Twitter in an attempt to hold the Tesla chief to the deal he signed in April. *) Lebanon sends US its remarks on Israel maritime border dispute Lebanon has sent Washington remarks to a US proposal on resolving a long-running maritime border dispute with Israel over gas-rich waters of the countries' Mediterranean coasts. A draft agreement floated by the US aims to settle competing claims over offshore gas fields and was delivered to Lebanese and Israeli officials at the weekend. Washington's offer has not been made public, but it has raised prospects for a deal that could help Lebanon explore potential gas wealth that the debt-ridden country desperately needs. *) French-US-Austrian trio win physics Nobel for quantum mechanics work A trio of physicists have won the Nobel Prize for discoveries in the field of quantum mechanics that have paved the way for quantum computers, networks and secure encrypted communication. Alain Aspect of France, John Clauser of the United States and Austria's Anton Zeilinger have been honoured for "groundbreaking experiments using entangled quantum states", the committee has said. Their results "have cleared the way for new technology based upon quantum information", it has added. And finally… *) Pitt 'choked' one child, hit another in Jolie plane fight: Court papers Brad Pitt allegedly hit one of his children in the face and choked another during a fight with Angelina Jolie on a private plane, according to court papers filed in the United States by his ex-wife. In the papers widely quoted in US media, Jolie alleges Pitt also grabbed her by the head as the couple flew with the children from California to France in September 2016. The former couple, once one of Hollywood's highest profile pairings, have been embroiled in a lengthy dispute over their marriage, custody of their six children and shared assets.
Nobel về vật lý năm 2022 đã được trao cho ba nhà khoa học - Alain Aspect, John Clauser, và Anton Zeilinger.
Der erste Physik-Nobelpreis für einen Österreicher seit 1945: Der Quantenphysiker Anton Zeilinger bekommt gemeinsam mit dem Franzosen Alain Aspect und dem Amerikaner John Clausen den diesjährigen Nobelpreis. Wofür erhalten Sie die Auszeichnung? Was heißt sie für Österreichs Forschung? Und wie reagierte Anton Zeilinger auf die Nachricht? Thomas Kramar, Feuilletonchef und Wissenschaftsjournalist der "Presse", ist Gast im Studio.
Bund und Länder beraten heute über die Finanzierung des dritten Entlastungspakets. Die Ministerpräsidentinnen und Ministerpräsidenten fordern eine angemessene Beteiligung des Bundes an den geplanten Entlastungsmaßnahmen. Außerdem in der Nachmittagsausgabe des Was Jetzt?-Podcasts: Bei ihrem Besuch in Polen hat Außenministerin Annalena Baerbock (Grüne) polnische Reparationsforderungen für Schäden und Opfer des Zweiten Weltkriegs zurückgewiesen. Die Frage der Reparationen sei aus Sicht der Bundesregierung abgeschlossen. Der Energiekonzern RWE will 2030 aus der Kohle aussteigen. Das sieht eine Vereinbarung zwischen RWE, dem Bundeswirtschaftsministerium und dem nordrhein-westfälischen Wirtschaftsministerium vor. Der Franzose Alain Aspect, der US-amerikaner John F. Clauser und der Österreiche Anton Zeilinger erhalten den Nobelpreis für ihre Forschung auf dem Gebiet der Quantenmechanik. Wofür genau bekommen die drei Forscher den Nobelpreis? Und wofür brauchen wir überhaupt die Forschung in der Quantenmechanik? Diese Fragen klärt Moses Fendel im Gespräch mit Stefan Schmitt, Redakteur im Wissens-Ressort der ZEIT. Was noch?

"It's probably one of the most beautiful theories ever invented.” – Anton Zeilinger conveys his love for the elegant simplicity of quantum mechanics in this call recorded shortly after the public announcement of his Nobel Prize. “With very few symbols”, he explains, “you can explain a whole lot of things from the smallest quantum particles up to the origin of the universe.” Zeilinger emphasises that the news also sends a message of huge appreciation to all the people he worked with, and ends by introducing Adam Smith to the strange and potentially useful world of quantum teleportation.

Nobelpriset i fysik går till Alain Aspect, John Clauser och Anton Zeilinger, som gjort banbrytande experiment inom kvantmekaniken. De har visat att två partiklar som är separerade ändå kan höra ihop och vara sammanflätade på ett "spöklikt" sätt. Pristagarna som är från Frankrike, USA och Österrike har med sina upptäckter öppnat upp ett helt forskningsfält. Det handlar om kvantmekaniken, som är en grundläggande lära om hur universums minsta beståndsdelar är beskaffade.Och en del av deras bedrift är att bevisa att den sorts sammanflätning mellan två partiklar på stort avstånd från varandra, som Einstein tyckte var så spöklik att han inte trodde på det, faktiskt kan finnas.De belönade upptäckterna är inte bara teoretiskt viktiga, utan banar också väg för de kvantdatorer som många hoppas ska kunna bli mycket effektivare än dagens. I programmet medverkar Ulrika Björkstén, Sveriges Radios vetenskapskommentator, och Mats Larsson, ledamot av Nobelkommittén för fysik, professor i molekylfysik vid Stockholms universitet. Vi hör också två av de glada nyblivna pristagarna, John Clauser och Anton Zeiliger. Programledare Camilla Widebeck Producent Peter Normark peter.normark@sverigesradio.se

Thema: Zeilinger erhält den Physik-Nobelpreis
Bereits seit 2008 laufen Verhandlungen über ein Freihandelsabkommen mit Indien, zuletzt allerdings eher schleppend. Um neuen Schwung in die Verhandlungen zu bringen, ist Wirtschaftsminister Guy Parmelin nach Indien gereist. Weitere Themen: Mit Ueli Maurer tritt ein Zürcher Bundesrat zurück, deshalb ist für viele klar, dass auf Maurer wieder ein Zürcher oder eine Zürcherin folgen müssten. Denn dass der bevölkerungsreiche und wirtschaftsstarke Kanton Zürich im Bundesrat nicht vertreten war, das gab es in der Geschichte erst ein einziges Mal. Marie Curie oder Albert Einstein haben ihn bereits erhalten. Nun kommen mit Anton Zeilinger, Alain Aspect und John F. Clauser weitere Namen in die illustre Liste der Physik-Nobelpreisträgerinnen und -Nobelpreisträger dazu. Das Karolinska-Institut würdigt ihre Leistungen in der Quantenphysik.
Der Nobelpreis für Physik geht an den Franzosen Alain Aspect, den Amerikaner John F. Clauser und den Österreicher Anton Zeilinger. Sie werden für ihre bahnbrechenden Arbeiten zur Kraft der Quantenmechanik geehrt, teilte das Gremium des Karolinska-Instituts in Stockholm mit. Christine Langer im Gespräch mit Uwe Gradwohl, SWR-Wissenschaftsredaktion.
Teden Nobelovih nagrad je danes prinesel dobitnike nagrade za fiziko. Razdelili si jo bodo francoski, ameriški in avstrijski fizik Alain Aspect, John F. Clauser in Anton Zeilinger. Kot so sporočili iz Švedske kraljeve akademije, so nagrado prejeli za prelomne znanstvene poskuse s prepletenimi fotoni in za pionirska odkritja na področju kvantne informatike. Druge teme: - Ukrajinska vojska na jugu dosegla največji preboj doslej, Putin naj bi še danes podpisal zakon o priključitvi - Panika na severu Japonske zaradi severnokorejske balistične rakete - Ob svetovnem dnevu varstva živali poudarjanje odgovorne skrbi zanje
Nearly a week after Hurricane Ian smashed into Florida and carved a path of destruction that reached into the Carolinas, 78 deaths have been blamed on Ian, with 71 of them reported in Florida. A Florida sheriff issued a blunt warning to potential looters. President Joe Biden promises to “rebuild it all” after visiting Puerto Rico on Monday to survey damage from Hurricane Fiona, as tens of thousands of people remain without power two weeks after the storm hit. Biden says he's “committed to this island,” and acknowledges that Fiona was only the latest in a string of disasters that have battered the U.S. territory in recent years. Biden will visit Florida on Wednesday. Three scientists have jointly won this year's Nobel Prize in physics for their work on quantum information science that has significant applications, for example in the field of encryption. Alain Aspect, John F. Clauser and Anton Zeilinger were cited by the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences for discovering the way that particles known as photons can be linked, or “entangled,” with each other even when they are separated by large distances. The city council of Kyiv says it is providing evacuation centers with potassium iodine pills in preparation for a possible nuclear strike on the capital, Ukraine's largest city. Potassium iodine pills can help block the absorption of harmful radiation by the thyroid gland if taken just before or immediately after exposure to nuclear radiation. North Korea has conducted its longest-ever weapons test, a nuclear-capable ballistic missile that flew over Japan and could reach the U.S. Pacific territory of Guam and beyond. The launch early Tuesday forced the Japanese government to issue evacuation alerts and halt trains. Former President Donald Trump has gone to court against CNN, a familiar target when he was president. He's seeking $475 million in damages, saying the network's reports are trying to short-circuit any future political campaign. Trump's lawsuit, filed in U.S. District Court in Florida, focuses primarily on use of the term “The Big Lie” about Trump's false claims of widespread fraud that he says cost him the 2020 presidential election. Last month, new auto prices averaged $45,622, the fourth-highest monthly price on record, according to J.D. Power. In addition, average auto loan interest rates hit 5.7% between July and September, up from 4.3% a year ago, with terms stretched to average over 70 months, Edmunds said. In sports, one National League team clinched a wild card spot while another tried to clinch a division crown, Albert Pujols passed another milestone, the 49ers continued to dominate the Rams and Tua Tagovailoa will get next Sunday off. Wall Street rallied to its best day since July as falling bond yields eased some of the pressure that's battered markets. The S&P 500 rose 2.6% Monday, the latest swing for a scattershot market that's been mostly falling this year on worries about a possible global recession. Ukrainian forces have scored more gains in their counteroffensive across a broad front. The troops advanced Monday in the very areas Russia is trying to absorb. Prosecutors are saying at the opening of the most serious case to reach trial in the attack on the U.S. Capitol that the founder of the Oath Keepers extremist group and four associates planned for an “armed rebellion” to stop the transfer of presidential power. Apple Music is about to reach a huge milestone, offering its eye-and-ear-popping 100 millionth song on the streaming service. The music giant tells The Associated Press that internal data indicates Apple Music will reach the heady mark on Monday. Every day, 20,000 singers and songwriters release music on the service. Bono's next tour will be without U2 or a new album to support. He will, instead, be promoting his memoir “Surrender: 40 Songs, One Story,” which comes out Nov. 1. The Supreme Court began its new term Monday with a new justice on the bench, the public back in the courtroom and a spirited debate in a case that pits environmental protections against property rights. The new member of the court, Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson, wasted no time joining the lively give-and-take, asking questions throughout nearly two hours of arguments in the dispute over the nation's main anti-water pollution law, the Clean Water Act. The long list of celebrities promoting cryptocurrencies just got shorter. Kim Kardashian is being barred from doing so for three years — and will pay a $1 million fine — to settle federal charges that she recommended a crypto security to her 330 million Instagram followers without making clear that she was paid to do so. Andrew Lloyd Webber is saying goodbye to his last remaining show on Broadway and welcoming another. The musical theater icon announced Monday that his retooled version of “Cinderella” will land in New York at the Imperial Theatre in February with new songs, a new leading lady and a new title: “Bad Cinderella.” The actor and activist who declined Marlon Brando's 1973 Academy Award for “The Godfather” on his behalf in an indelible protest of how Native Americans had been portrayed on screen has died. Sacheen Littlefeather was 75. In this week's religion roundup, Jewish pilgrims gathered in Ukraine despite the war, Brazil's president exhorted evangelicals to help keep him in office, and the Vatican imposed disciplinary sanctions on a Nobel Peace Prize-winning Bishop. —The Associated PressSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Krieg, gibt es nicht nur im Aussen - er beginnt im Inneren. Hast du mit dir Frieden geschlossen? Krieg bedeutet - das Leben nicht zu akzeptieren. Schon Mutter Teresa hat gesagt: "ich bin nie gegen etwas - sondern nur für etwas! zB: für den Frieden! Sorgen, bedeutet auch, dem Leben nicht vertrauen. Sei dir sicher - du erlebst jetzt genau das, was für dich im Moment richtig ist. Kommunikation: Alles im Universum kommuniziert miteinander. Menschen mit Pflanzen, Tieren Steinen usw. Zellen mit Zellen. Lass deine Zellen tanzen und gib ihnen Gelegenheit zum entspannen und feiern. Anton Zeilinger, der österreichische Quantenphysiker hat bewiesen, dass Zellen miteinender verschränkt sind. Das heist - egal wie groß der Abstand der Zellen ist - sie fühlen, was die andere Zelle wahrnimmt. ZB. wenn du bei deiner Zimmerpflanze einen Ast abschneidest und nach Australien bringst, dann erlebt eine Zelle einen Schock - fühle das die Pflanze trotz der Entfernung. Der Körper spricht zu dir über die Sprache des Körpers - das ist der Schmerz, Müdigkeit, Emotionen und viele weitere Symptome.. Achte auf deinen Körper und versuche ihn zu verstehen, somit aktivierst du die Selbstheilungskräfte deines Körpers. Schaffe das Milieu damit sich deine Zellen wohl fühlen, dann werden sie es dir mit Gesundheit danken. Wenn du Fragen dazu hast, freue ich mich über deine Kontaktaufnahme, damit wir deine Fragen gemeinsam betrachten können. Danke fürs zuhören, für deine Zeit. Bis bald.

Die Mittelalter-Fantasy-Serie "Game of Thrones" erweist sich für die Science Busters als wahre Fundgrube für Bühnenprogramme, erzählt Astronom Florian Freistetter (im Bild) im "Wissenschaftsradio". So könne etwa der Frage, warum die "Jahreszeiten" in der Serie " so seltsam" seien, "warum dieser komische Winter kommt", astronomisch nachgegangen werden, erklärt Freistetter. Oder: "Warum gibt es dort Drachen? Wie können Drachen existieren, wie funktioniert deren Biologie? Das sind Fragen, die Biologen beantworten können." Der Experte für Asteroiden erläutert auch auf humorvolle Art, warum Bier in seiner bekannten Form ohne diese Kleinplaneten undenkbar ist. - Weitere Themen im spannenden Talk sind das neue Satelliten-Navigationssystem Galileo und Erkenntnisse zum Mars - aber auch die mögliche Wiederwahl der deutschen Kanzlerin Angela Merkel und die Astrologie (Horoskope), die immer wieder mit der Astronomie verwechselt wird. Freistetter: "Die Astrologen behaupten immer von sich selbst, sie würden eine Wissenschaft betreiben, tun das aber nicht. Astrologie ist Unsinn und Aberglaube." Auch wenn Freistetter klar zwischen Astrologie und Astronomie unterscheidet, steht fest, dass er mit den "Science Busters" Sternstunden auf der Bühne darbietet und die Ideen für neue Programme nicht so schnell ausgehen dürften. Aktuell sind die "Science Busters" jeden Dienstag um 22.55 Uhr in ORFeins zu sehen. Eine Sternstunde erlebt gerade auch Alexandra Kautzky-Willer, die an der Medizinischen Uni Wien arbeitet und zur Wissenschaftlerin des Jahres 2017 gewählt wurde. Sie forscht darüber, wie Frauen und Männer Krankheiten unterschiedlich erleben, Hauptgebiete sind u. a. Stoffwechselerkrankungen, Übergewicht und Diabetes. "Diabetes ist eine Volkskrankheit, die extrem viele Leute betrifft und zunimmt. Teilweise wird von einem Tsunami gesprochen", schildert Kautzky-Willer. Diabetes betreffe zudem alle Organfunktionen und Komplikationen in Bezug auf Augen, die Niere und die Gefäße. "Es besteht ein höheres Risiko für Herzinfarkt und Schlaganfall, der Nummer-1-Todesursache bei uns in Europa, aber auch weltweit", so Kautzky-Willer. Besonderen Einfluss bei Krankheiten nehmen Hormone ("Stoffe"): "Viele Krankheiten sind sehr unterschiedlich in der Zeit, wo die Sexualhormone den größten Einfluss nehmen. Das bedeutet, zwischen Pubertät und Menopause (Anm.: "Aufhören der Monatsblutung")", erklärt die Forscherin. Am Freitag, dem 7. April 2017 (Welt-Gesundheitstag), liest Alexandra Kautzky-Willer aus einem Ratgeber-Buch zum Thema Diabetes in Wien (Thalia-Buchhandlung, Mariahilfer Str. 99, 6. Bezirk) - weitere Details zur Veranstaltung: https://www.meduniwien.ac.at/web/ueber-uns/events/detail/event/weltgesundheitstag-2017/ Was sie von Alice Schwarzers Magazin "Emma (feiert heuer sein 40jähriges Bestehen) hält und wie sie die mögliche Ansiedelung der EU-Arzneimittelagentur (u. a. zuständig für die Zulassung von Medikamenten) in Wien sieht, ist in der Sendung zu hören. Ob Wien möglicher neuer Standort wird, könnte mit Ende 2018 feststehen. - Höhenflüge in der Wissenschaft macht derzeit auch Moderator Andreas Jäger, der für seine ORFIII-Sendung "Quantensprung" WissenschaftlerInnen wie Anton Zeilinger trifft. Wir haben ihn bei einem Dreh backstage begleitet und mit ihm einen "Fake News"-Check (zu einer falschen Nachricht) gemacht. Credit: ORF / Hans Leitner

Alan Wallace Fall 2012 Retreat Podcast: Vipashyana, Four Applications of Mindfulness
Teaching: Alan draws the teachings into the 21st century by dedicating this session to a brief history of science culminating in the view according to quantum mechanics. Early scientists like Galileo were devout Christians who attempted to understand reality from God’s perspective. The real world must be out there because 1) stuff happens when we’re not looking and 2) there is a commonality of perceptions. Modern physicists debunk this view. Anton Zeilinger said that reality is based only on information we receive. John Wheeler spoke of the participatory universe where its (physical world) come from bits (information). Based on bits, the conceptual mind makes the its. Andre Lindt asserts that perception is primary and that consciousness is needed to explain the physics observed in the real world. Stephen Hawking speaks of the quantum world which is in a superposition state (in probabilistic mode or realm of possibility). He notes being inside (causality and linearity) or outside the system (quantum world where observer creates both past and future). Without an observer, the universe is frozen. The observer breaks the symmetry of the quantum world, giving rise to the classical world. In sum, both the observer and information constitute essential links in understanding the world. In buddhist epistemology, a cause which can never be seen cannot be inferred based on the effect. Appearances of the 5 sense domains arise in the substrate, not in physical space. We can only see the qualia of the 5 senses, not the things is physical space which are unknowable. Samsara arises from not knowing (avidya), reifying the its and not recognizing that come from the bits. In terms of Vajrayana, the ordinary self lies inside the system whereas rigpa lies outside the system. We can go outside the system by realizing the emptiness of self and phenomena and dissolving mind into rigpa. Just as in quantum mechanics where there is no absolute time, from the perspective of rigpa, Ground, Path, and Fruition are simultaneous. Given the indivisibility of primordial consciousness (yeshe) and dharmadhatu, we can know simultaneously who we are and how reality is.

Maggie Koerth-Baker, the science editor for boingboing.net, discusses her book "Before the Lights Go Out: Conquering the Energy Crisis Before it Conquers Us" and talks about the past, present, and future of energy infrastructure. www.maggiekb.com/booksTranscriptSpeaker 1: Spectrum's next Speaker 2: [inaudible].Speaker 1: Welcome [00:00:30] to spectrum the science and technology show on k a l x Berkeley, a biweekly 30 minute program bringing you interviews featuring bay area scientists and technologists. Speaker 3: Good afternoon. I'm Rick Karnofsky, Brad swift and I are the hosts of today's show. I'd like to thank past spectrum guests and director of the Bay Area Science Festival Kashara Hari for helping to coordinate this interview. We're speaking with Maggie, Chris Baker, science editor for the hugely [00:01:00] popular blog, [inaudible] dot net and the author of the recent book before the lights go out, conquering the energy crisis before it conquers us. Maggie, welcome to the spectrum. Speaker 1: Thank you for having me. So why this book? This book came about because I'm married to a guy who actually works in the energy industry. My husband is an energy efficiency analyst, which means that he basically uses software algorithms to figure out how to make buildings as energy efficient as possible for the least amount of money. [00:01:30] And so when he got that job, he started coming home and talking to me a lot about how energy worked and how electricity worked. And it started to occur to me that there was this big disconnect between what the experts knew about our energy infrastructure and what everybody else, you know, not just lay people that government and business and you know, everybody actually has to make decisions about energy. What they knew, and there was all these details that were, you know, just basic information [00:02:00] to my husband to the point that he didn't even talk about them to people, but that void not basic information at all outside this niche. And so I really wanted to try to bridge that gap in education between the experts and everyone else. You cover Speaker 3: both sort of energy infrastructure and energy generation in use as well as some of the environmental issues that are Speaker 1: of concern to this. Yeah, I really wanted to have a book that kind of explains sort of a behind the scenes look at [00:02:30] w you know, where our electricity comes from and why it comes to us in the way that it comes to us and how this current infrastructure that we have affects what we can and can't do to solve our energy crisis problems over the next 30 or 40 years. People are familiar with gasoline in a way that they're not familiar with electricity. You know, I spill gas on my shoes on a monthly basis and it's right there at the pump every day. Electricity's different, you know, it's kind of has this [00:03:00] sort of feeling of like magical elves in the wall that make my lights turn on and I don't, I don't know what happens. It's a black box and that was really interesting to me is kind of going inside that black box and helping people understand what's going on behind is incredibly important part of their daily lives that they depend upon for everything. Speaker 1: So what is going on and how do we get here? Yeah, so we have a really imperfect system. This is I think something that is hard for people [00:03:30] to understand sometimes that when we're talking about changing the energy system, we're not talking about going from something that works really well to something that's risky. We're talking about taking this thing that wasn't designed by anybody. It just evolved piecemeal, like a little patchwork quilt made up by 50 or 60 or 70 different quilters and trying to make it something that can work for the future. Right now we have a system that is surprisingly precarious. There are, you know, centers all over the u s where these people called grid controllers [00:04:00] have to manually balance electric supply and electric demand on a minute by minute basis, 24 hours a day, seven days a week. You know that process have to be manual basically because we've never made it anything else. Speaker 1: There are technologies. Some of the things that we talk about, we talk about smart grids that could make this more automated, but we've never bought those, so we just have these guys. It would also be a lot easier if we had more storage on our electric grid, but we don't really have any storage on our electric grid because [00:04:30] it's always been cheaper to just have these guys and that puts us at risk, not just in terms of how we integrate wind and solar onto our grid, but it also puts us at risk in terms of blackouts. There have been a lot of times, particularly as you get more extreme weather events where this old manual grid can't respond fast enough to changes that are happening and people lose power. I'm interested about the blackouts that have happened historically. [00:05:00] Did you find in your research that there lessons learned from all the blackouts that have happened? Speaker 1: Some yes and some no. We have learned a lot more about interconnecting parts of the grid to kind of help people get past some of these blackouts. Up until the 1970s even a lot of our grids were just these completely separate islands where a town would be its own grid and another town would be its own grid and there'd be no connection between the two. But [00:05:30] there were a lot of rolling blackouts that happened because you had this constantly increasing electric demand that this small grid couldn't actually keep up with in terms of creating more generation. So one of the things that we found is that it made more sense to start connecting these things to one another and now we have this completely national system where places that don't have enough electricity can get it from somewhere else. And that's a really important thing. Speaker 1: That's a important change that has happened and has made the system more reliable. [00:06:00] There are better things we could do with that interconnection. One of the things that would really help is to have a little bit more distributed generation. So you know, generation, instead of being on the scale of millions of homes being powered by one power plant, hundreds or thousands of homes being powered by one power plant, and those things can be scattered around in a lot more places and they can allow us to access natural resources like gas from landfills or hydroelectric power that we can't get to at [00:06:30] a really large scale right now. And would also then strengthen the system up. Because if you have your power coming from a lot of places, shutting down, one of them doesn't shut down power to millions of people. And that's a big deal. Kind of a resilience thing. Speaker 1: Yeah, absolutely. Absolutely. Is there any reason I shouldn't just build a solar farm in my backyard? There's not a reason why you shouldn't build a solar farm in your backyard, but there is a good reason to think [00:07:00] that you're not going to supply all the energy you need for yourself. You know, this isn't, when I talk about de-centralization, I'm not talking about everybody going off the grid and everybody becoming, you know, their own self-sufficient farm basically. That's not a really realistic way to think about the world. I could make this great garden in my backyard, but my chances of feeding my entire family for a full year based only in what's in that garden are pretty slim, but at the same time, I might not like the choices that I have at the giant supermarket in the suburbs. [00:07:30] So this is where I kind of like to talk about decentralization as being a lot like a farmer's market. It's kind of somewhere in the middle. It's got enough diversity of choices that it's better than the really large scale that way, but it also still enables you to share resources among multiple people and make use of these shared networks of energy use and energy, a production that we really need to have a reliable system. You're not going to have [00:08:00] a reliable system. You're not going to have a 21st century system if you're trying to have everybody be off the grid. It just won't work. Speaker 2: [inaudible]Speaker 3: you are listening to spectrum the science and technology show on k l x Berkeley. I'm Rick Karnofsky. Brad swift and I are interviewing Maggie. Chris Baker about our energy infrastructure Speaker 2: [inaudible]Speaker 1: [00:08:30] so how much energy do we produce and consume in this country? Here we used 98 quadrillion BTUs of energy in 2010 which is enough energy to take something decide is the great salt lake and boil it dry twice. So that's a lot of energy. It's, it's kind of hard to wrap your head around, it's just that massive. [00:09:00] But if you think about boiling away a lake, the size of the Great Salt Lake, twice in a year, you kind of get an idea of how much energy we're using and what's the trend of our energy usage. It generally goes up, it goes, it fluctuates a lot. We've had some dips in the past eight or nine, eight or seven years because of recession issues. But if you look at like the overall trend, what you see as it going up. So one of the things that would be really helpful is if we can kind [00:09:30] of find ways to stabilize energy use and not grow at this constant growth rate without having to be in a recession to do that. Speaker 1: What are some of the surprising things you found when researching the book? One of the biggest surprises for me was that we don't have storage on the electric grid. I honestly thought just had not even ever considered that. That wasn't there until I found out that it wasn't, you know, batteries [00:10:00] are just such this huge part of our lives. They're in everything we use there in our cars. They're in laptops, they're, you know, just all over the place. It just made sense that there would be batteries on the grid and there really aren't not enough to actually make a difference. And that's because they're much bigger and much more expensive and we don't necessarily have battery technology worked out in a way that can make it cheap and make it big. And that's something that we really need a lot more r and D on. Speaker 1: But [00:10:30] there are other ways to store energy and I just was really surprised to find out that we weren't using them. Can you give examples? One of the things is called compressed air energy storage, which is one of the most cost effective ways that we can store energy at a grid scale. And it basically involves how you bring electricity potentials from overnight when there's not a lot of demand for it into the day when there is on the great plains where get most of our wind power from wind [00:11:00] actually blows more at night in a lot of those places, but there's no demand for that electricity. So you just can't use it, which is a problem because we have, you know, these wind farms built and they're not getting us all of the power they could be giving us. So one of the things you can do is have your wind farm hooked up to an air compressor and at night when the wind is blowing and there's not demand, you use that wind power to power the air compressor, which pumps compressed air into porous rock underground. Speaker 1: Basically use the earth as a giant battery [00:11:30] and then the next day you just run the system backwards and that compressed air comes out and helps to run a natural gas generator that produces electricity for far, far less energy than we'd otherwise need. So in addition to making our system smarter and putting storage on the grid, what other improvements can be made to the system? We need a lot more ways people to use energy efficiency better than we do today. There's a big difference between energy efficiency and conservation. [00:12:00] Conservation is great, but conservation is all about not doing something. Whereas energy efficiency is about finding ways to do it better. So you can get the services you need and want. You can get these things that make our lives clean and comfortable and convenient. But you can do that for less energy. And a lot of that has to do with making it easy for energy efficiency to happen. Speaker 1: You do make the case that individual consumer contribution is great, but we do need to make these system level changes. How do we actually start to do that? [00:12:30] Yeah. So that's, that's a tough thing. One of the things that I've learned in the course of this research is that energy isn't just our choices. It's not just the sources we're using, it's the systems and the infrastructure that kind of control how we use energy. You know, I've been telling people that the average American uses twice as much energy as the average European, but that's not because they're better people than us. That's because they have infrastructures that allow them to do that without becoming energy experts or without agonizing over every single choice they make every day. And I think [00:13:00] a big part of it has to start with making the case for this. In terms of practicality. Speaker 1: I think the places where I've seen that kind of top down infrastructure change happen, particularly the u s military or things where it started with the people who wanted to make individual changes, going to the people in charge and making a practical case for what benefits we're going to get if we make a couple of these changes and then those changes started influencing the way that everybody [00:13:30] else at the bottom of this chain of command thought about how they used energy and they became more aware of it in their lives and they became smarter about what they were doing. And then that led to pressure. That led to more changes at the top, which led to more cultural changes at the bottom. And you kind of get this nice feedback loop, but I think it has to start with what kind of pressures we put on our government, not just in terms of you need to do this because it's good for the environment, but here are these really good practical things we're going to get out [00:14:00] of making these changes. Speaker 1: We're going to make our system more stable. We're going to make us better able to deal with weather, with terrorism, with all these different things that can affect the grid. And I think that that's a good place to start. How vulnerable is the grid to attack either physically or software wise? Software wise it's not very much right now. It will be more when we have a smart grid and I think this is something that worries people a lot and I think it's reasonable cause it's a reasonable risk, but we have [00:14:30] to kind of consider the balance between benefits and detriments. You know the analogy I ended up using in the book was my dad's typewriter from 1986 was a lot less vulnerable to cyber attack and identity theft than his internet enabled computer now. But I don't think he'd ever go back to that typewriter because their stuff he gets from that Internet enabled computer that he could never possibly get otherwise. And I think that we [00:15:00] need to be cautious in how we set things up. We need to be intelligent in how we set up our security systems and we need to know that we're not ever going to have anything set up perfectly and there's going to be failures, but that the benefits are going to outweigh the risks. Speaker 2: [inaudible]Speaker 1: you're listening to spectrum on k a l ex Maggie. Chris Baker is discussing [00:15:30] her recent book before the lights go out. Speaker 1: Do you think dynamic pricing of energy has any role? Definitely does. This is another one of those aspects of how you reduce demand and reduce the need to build new power plants has to do a lot with reducing those peak loads. When we build power plants, we don't just build power plants for the amount of energy that is used. Most of the time we have to [00:16:00] build power plants for the theoretical peak in energy that we might hit at any given point, which means we have a lot of power plants in the u s that aren't actually producing much electricity and it just kind of sitting in idle for most of the year because we need them in the middle of summer, in the afternoon. And if we can cut those peak loads down, that means that we don't have to have as many of those things. They don't have to be on, they don't have to be idling because idling is not a really efficient way to use those fuels. Speaker 1: [00:16:30] So that's where the dynamic pricing thing comes in because right now if you are a business, you are charged for electricity in a really different way than individuals are. As a business, your electricity costs more when people want more of it and costs less when people want less of it so that you're kind of incentivized to not use electricity during that peak time. We don't charge people in residential areas like that and [00:17:00] I think that there could be a big benefit. It would take also implementing systems so people know what's going on because if you don't know that the cost changes throughout the day, there's really nothing you can do about it. But there's some really cool technologies, like a, an orb that sits on your table and changes color based on the price of electricity or you know what demand for electricity is like. And so you can look at that and know, well, the orb is red. Speaker 1: I shouldn't run the dishwasher right now, and that's the kind [00:17:30] of thing that you need built in if you're going to make dynamic pricing work, don't to swap out all of your appliances. Right. Which is a nice thing. Also, one of the things I found interesting about the book is that you get a lot of evidence for climate change, but then you also say even if you don't believe in climate change, energy efficiency is still very important. Yeah. This is one of those things that I was really surprised by when I was doing the research was the idea that I don't have to convince people that climate change is real in order to convince them that we need energy change. This [00:18:00] is something people are willing to sign on for for a whole host of reasons. There was a really great story that ended up opening the book with where a nonprofit in Kansas was doing these focus groups to kind of find out what people thought about climate and energy and kind of get a good idea of, you know, how they would develop their programs. Speaker 1: And they kept running over and over into these situations where you'd have some guy talking about how climate change is a socialist plot. It's going to destroy us all. And then you'd ask him, you know, [00:18:30] what are you doing about energy? And the same guy would have switched out all of his light bulb to cfls and he'd owned a Prius and he was excited about wind power because he was excited about those things for different reasons. To save a lot of money. He gets to save money, he gets to be part of this Apollo project, kind of USA, USA kind of thing. And you know, there's lots of different reasons why people care about this stuff. There are opportunities we're missing to communicate with people in their language, their cultural language instead [00:19:00] of trying to convince them to be part of our cultural language. And I think that's a mistake that we make a lot as you know, communicators of sustainability and of environmentalism is that we don't make a big enough effort to talk to people in different cultural languages. Speaker 3: I would like to say I really like your footnotes in the book. They're not only like useful links that were, you know, I was able to fall on my kindle. I don't know how useful they are in the hard backwards. I don't know about that either. The uh, [00:19:30] just the stories that are hitting back there are, are absolutely fantastic. So what sort of motivated you to put all that in? Speaker 1: Not being able to cut out great stories that didn't quite have a place in the main text. You know, there's just so many cool things that I learned that didn't quite fit with the narrative of the story and I needed a place to put them. And then I had all these footnotes and now there's like 50 pages of footnotes, but one like one of my favorites was the [00:20:00] story of Thomas Edison when he was developing the grid system in New York City, which was the first grid system in the world. And they had this faulty junction box under a street corner that when it rained and the ground got saturated that you had kind of an electric connection up to the street. And that ended up leading to everybody in New York crowded around the street corner watching horses and buggies go by and then the horses hitting this electrified patch of ground and like rearing [00:20:30] and freaking out and kind of got to the point apparently where people sort of like urging them on like, no, no, there's no problem here and bring your horse through. Speaker 1: Um, and so they finally called down Edison's staff bowsers. Yeah, exactly. Basically giant joy buzzer. And they finally down Edison staff to get this thing fixed. And so they get it fixed and everything's fine. But then the next day, this used horse salesman shows up at Edison's office asking him to install an intentionally faulty junction box under [00:21:00] his used horse paddock to make the horses look more energetic than they actually are. And that's really where the story ends in the Edison archives. There's no record of whether or not he took the guy up on that offer. Has the way you use energy actually changed at all? Definitely. It's changed not because of the book. It changed when my husband got the job that he has. Uh, we've done a lot to make our house more energy efficient. We have a 1920s bungalow in Minneapolis that, you know, it's, [00:21:30] it's not going to be something where we can like reorient it on the site and make it save energy. Speaker 1: But there's a lot of things that were already done because of how they used to design buildings that involved that, you know, we have a 40 foot wide lot and our house is not right in the middle of it. Our House is set so that the north side of our lot is extremely small. Like is basically the smallest setback you can possibly have while the south side of our lot is much wider. And that was done in old Minneapolis neighborhoods [00:22:00] specifically. So you got more light coming in during the winter and more warmth and we're able to capture some of that energy that you wouldn't be able to capture otherwise if your house didn't have that kind of setback. So, I mean there's a lot of that kind of stuff that was built into how our house was built. And we've since gone through and my husband has like an expanding foam addiction and took it through the entire house and basically patched up everything that could possibly be construed as a, uh, leak in the house. [00:22:30] So we're, we're held up now with our, uh, with stucco and expanding foam. Oh, make it bigger. Thanks for joining. Yes, thank you so much. Speaker 2: [inaudible].Speaker 1: Now for some science news headlines, here's Brad swift and Lisa Katovich Speaker 2: [inaudible].Speaker 4: [00:23:00] The California condors returned to flying free in the wild after a close brush with extinction, maybe an illusory recovery. The hundred plus condors soaring over California swallow so much led shot as they scavenge carcasses that the population can't sustain itself without steady medical care and continual resupply from captive populations. Toxicologist Myra Finkelstein of UC Santa Cruz described analyses of lead [00:23:30] in blood and feathers in the June 25th proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. Each year about 20% of the state's monitored birds flunk their lead tests badly enough to need detox. This grim paper supplies the data to confirm the toll of lead ammunition on condors in the wild, regional or species. Specific regulations do restrict ammunition in California and Arizona, the two states where condos live, but those rules don't seem to be solving the problem without a politically difficult nationwide ban [00:24:00] on lead ammunition. California condors will exist in the wild only due to costly extensive human intervention. Essentially in an outdoor zoo state Speaker 5: science news reports that quantum information has leaped through the air about 100 kilometers in two new experiments further and with greater fidelity than ever before. The research brings truly long distance quantum communication networks in which satellites could beam encrypted information around the globe closer to reality. [00:24:30] Both studies involve quantum teleportation, which transports the quantum state of one particle to another. This star trek like feet is possible because of a phenomenon called entanglement in which pairs of particles become linked in such a way that measuring a certain property in one instantly determines the same property for the other, even if separated by large distances. In the first experiment, Anton Zeilinger of the University of Vienna and his colleagues used a pair of entangled photons [00:25:00] to transmit a piece of quantum information over 143 kilometers between two of the Canary Islands. In the second experiment, John Way Pawn of the University of Science and technology of China in Shanghai and his colleagues and tangled many protons together and teleported information 97 kilometers across the lake in China. These experiments are a milestone towards future satellite based quantum teleportation. Speaker 4: In the July issue of [00:25:30] the Journal cell, researchers from Stanford University reported the world's first complete computer model of an organism, the bacteria, Mycoplasma genitalium, a humble parasitic bacterium known mainly for showing up uninvited in the human urogenital and respiratory tracks. Its distinction is that it contains the smallest genome of any free living organism, only 525 genes as opposed to the 4,288 genes of eco lie. [00:26:00] The final model made use of more than 1900 experimentally determined parameters to integrate these disparate data points into a unified machine. Researchers modeled individual biological processes at 28 separate modules each governed by its own algorithm. These modules communicated to each other after every step making for a unified whole that closely matched the bacteria as real world behavior models like this could bring rational design to biology, allowing for computer guided experimental regimes and wholesale [00:26:30] creation of new micro organisms.

Maggie Koerth-Baker, the science editor for boingboing.net, discusses her book "Before the Lights Go Out: Conquering the Energy Crisis Before it Conquers Us" and talks about the past, present, and future of energy infrastructure. www.maggiekb.com/booksTranscriptSpeaker 1: Spectrum's next Speaker 2: [inaudible].Speaker 1: Welcome [00:00:30] to spectrum the science and technology show on k a l x Berkeley, a biweekly 30 minute program bringing you interviews featuring bay area scientists and technologists. Speaker 3: Good afternoon. I'm Rick Karnofsky, Brad swift and I are the hosts of today's show. I'd like to thank past spectrum guests and director of the Bay Area Science Festival Kashara Hari for helping to coordinate this interview. We're speaking with Maggie, Chris Baker, science editor for the hugely [00:01:00] popular blog, [inaudible] dot net and the author of the recent book before the lights go out, conquering the energy crisis before it conquers us. Maggie, welcome to the spectrum. Speaker 1: Thank you for having me. So why this book? This book came about because I'm married to a guy who actually works in the energy industry. My husband is an energy efficiency analyst, which means that he basically uses software algorithms to figure out how to make buildings as energy efficient as possible for the least amount of money. [00:01:30] And so when he got that job, he started coming home and talking to me a lot about how energy worked and how electricity worked. And it started to occur to me that there was this big disconnect between what the experts knew about our energy infrastructure and what everybody else, you know, not just lay people that government and business and you know, everybody actually has to make decisions about energy. What they knew, and there was all these details that were, you know, just basic information [00:02:00] to my husband to the point that he didn't even talk about them to people, but that void not basic information at all outside this niche. And so I really wanted to try to bridge that gap in education between the experts and everyone else. You cover Speaker 3: both sort of energy infrastructure and energy generation in use as well as some of the environmental issues that are Speaker 1: of concern to this. Yeah, I really wanted to have a book that kind of explains sort of a behind the scenes look at [00:02:30] w you know, where our electricity comes from and why it comes to us in the way that it comes to us and how this current infrastructure that we have affects what we can and can't do to solve our energy crisis problems over the next 30 or 40 years. People are familiar with gasoline in a way that they're not familiar with electricity. You know, I spill gas on my shoes on a monthly basis and it's right there at the pump every day. Electricity's different, you know, it's kind of has this [00:03:00] sort of feeling of like magical elves in the wall that make my lights turn on and I don't, I don't know what happens. It's a black box and that was really interesting to me is kind of going inside that black box and helping people understand what's going on behind is incredibly important part of their daily lives that they depend upon for everything. Speaker 1: So what is going on and how do we get here? Yeah, so we have a really imperfect system. This is I think something that is hard for people [00:03:30] to understand sometimes that when we're talking about changing the energy system, we're not talking about going from something that works really well to something that's risky. We're talking about taking this thing that wasn't designed by anybody. It just evolved piecemeal, like a little patchwork quilt made up by 50 or 60 or 70 different quilters and trying to make it something that can work for the future. Right now we have a system that is surprisingly precarious. There are, you know, centers all over the u s where these people called grid controllers [00:04:00] have to manually balance electric supply and electric demand on a minute by minute basis, 24 hours a day, seven days a week. You know that process have to be manual basically because we've never made it anything else. Speaker 1: There are technologies. Some of the things that we talk about, we talk about smart grids that could make this more automated, but we've never bought those, so we just have these guys. It would also be a lot easier if we had more storage on our electric grid, but we don't really have any storage on our electric grid because [00:04:30] it's always been cheaper to just have these guys and that puts us at risk, not just in terms of how we integrate wind and solar onto our grid, but it also puts us at risk in terms of blackouts. There have been a lot of times, particularly as you get more extreme weather events where this old manual grid can't respond fast enough to changes that are happening and people lose power. I'm interested about the blackouts that have happened historically. [00:05:00] Did you find in your research that there lessons learned from all the blackouts that have happened? Speaker 1: Some yes and some no. We have learned a lot more about interconnecting parts of the grid to kind of help people get past some of these blackouts. Up until the 1970s even a lot of our grids were just these completely separate islands where a town would be its own grid and another town would be its own grid and there'd be no connection between the two. But [00:05:30] there were a lot of rolling blackouts that happened because you had this constantly increasing electric demand that this small grid couldn't actually keep up with in terms of creating more generation. So one of the things that we found is that it made more sense to start connecting these things to one another and now we have this completely national system where places that don't have enough electricity can get it from somewhere else. And that's a really important thing. Speaker 1: That's a important change that has happened and has made the system more reliable. [00:06:00] There are better things we could do with that interconnection. One of the things that would really help is to have a little bit more distributed generation. So you know, generation, instead of being on the scale of millions of homes being powered by one power plant, hundreds or thousands of homes being powered by one power plant, and those things can be scattered around in a lot more places and they can allow us to access natural resources like gas from landfills or hydroelectric power that we can't get to at [00:06:30] a really large scale right now. And would also then strengthen the system up. Because if you have your power coming from a lot of places, shutting down, one of them doesn't shut down power to millions of people. And that's a big deal. Kind of a resilience thing. Speaker 1: Yeah, absolutely. Absolutely. Is there any reason I shouldn't just build a solar farm in my backyard? There's not a reason why you shouldn't build a solar farm in your backyard, but there is a good reason to think [00:07:00] that you're not going to supply all the energy you need for yourself. You know, this isn't, when I talk about de-centralization, I'm not talking about everybody going off the grid and everybody becoming, you know, their own self-sufficient farm basically. That's not a really realistic way to think about the world. I could make this great garden in my backyard, but my chances of feeding my entire family for a full year based only in what's in that garden are pretty slim, but at the same time, I might not like the choices that I have at the giant supermarket in the suburbs. [00:07:30] So this is where I kind of like to talk about decentralization as being a lot like a farmer's market. It's kind of somewhere in the middle. It's got enough diversity of choices that it's better than the really large scale that way, but it also still enables you to share resources among multiple people and make use of these shared networks of energy use and energy, a production that we really need to have a reliable system. You're not going to have [00:08:00] a reliable system. You're not going to have a 21st century system if you're trying to have everybody be off the grid. It just won't work. Speaker 2: [inaudible]Speaker 3: you are listening to spectrum the science and technology show on k l x Berkeley. I'm Rick Karnofsky. Brad swift and I are interviewing Maggie. Chris Baker about our energy infrastructure Speaker 2: [inaudible]Speaker 1: [00:08:30] so how much energy do we produce and consume in this country? Here we used 98 quadrillion BTUs of energy in 2010 which is enough energy to take something decide is the great salt lake and boil it dry twice. So that's a lot of energy. It's, it's kind of hard to wrap your head around, it's just that massive. [00:09:00] But if you think about boiling away a lake, the size of the Great Salt Lake, twice in a year, you kind of get an idea of how much energy we're using and what's the trend of our energy usage. It generally goes up, it goes, it fluctuates a lot. We've had some dips in the past eight or nine, eight or seven years because of recession issues. But if you look at like the overall trend, what you see as it going up. So one of the things that would be really helpful is if we can kind [00:09:30] of find ways to stabilize energy use and not grow at this constant growth rate without having to be in a recession to do that. Speaker 1: What are some of the surprising things you found when researching the book? One of the biggest surprises for me was that we don't have storage on the electric grid. I honestly thought just had not even ever considered that. That wasn't there until I found out that it wasn't, you know, batteries [00:10:00] are just such this huge part of our lives. They're in everything we use there in our cars. They're in laptops, they're, you know, just all over the place. It just made sense that there would be batteries on the grid and there really aren't not enough to actually make a difference. And that's because they're much bigger and much more expensive and we don't necessarily have battery technology worked out in a way that can make it cheap and make it big. And that's something that we really need a lot more r and D on. Speaker 1: But [00:10:30] there are other ways to store energy and I just was really surprised to find out that we weren't using them. Can you give examples? One of the things is called compressed air energy storage, which is one of the most cost effective ways that we can store energy at a grid scale. And it basically involves how you bring electricity potentials from overnight when there's not a lot of demand for it into the day when there is on the great plains where get most of our wind power from wind [00:11:00] actually blows more at night in a lot of those places, but there's no demand for that electricity. So you just can't use it, which is a problem because we have, you know, these wind farms built and they're not getting us all of the power they could be giving us. So one of the things you can do is have your wind farm hooked up to an air compressor and at night when the wind is blowing and there's not demand, you use that wind power to power the air compressor, which pumps compressed air into porous rock underground. Speaker 1: Basically use the earth as a giant battery [00:11:30] and then the next day you just run the system backwards and that compressed air comes out and helps to run a natural gas generator that produces electricity for far, far less energy than we'd otherwise need. So in addition to making our system smarter and putting storage on the grid, what other improvements can be made to the system? We need a lot more ways people to use energy efficiency better than we do today. There's a big difference between energy efficiency and conservation. [00:12:00] Conservation is great, but conservation is all about not doing something. Whereas energy efficiency is about finding ways to do it better. So you can get the services you need and want. You can get these things that make our lives clean and comfortable and convenient. But you can do that for less energy. And a lot of that has to do with making it easy for energy efficiency to happen. Speaker 1: You do make the case that individual consumer contribution is great, but we do need to make these system level changes. How do we actually start to do that? [00:12:30] Yeah. So that's, that's a tough thing. One of the things that I've learned in the course of this research is that energy isn't just our choices. It's not just the sources we're using, it's the systems and the infrastructure that kind of control how we use energy. You know, I've been telling people that the average American uses twice as much energy as the average European, but that's not because they're better people than us. That's because they have infrastructures that allow them to do that without becoming energy experts or without agonizing over every single choice they make every day. And I think [00:13:00] a big part of it has to start with making the case for this. In terms of practicality. Speaker 1: I think the places where I've seen that kind of top down infrastructure change happen, particularly the u s military or things where it started with the people who wanted to make individual changes, going to the people in charge and making a practical case for what benefits we're going to get if we make a couple of these changes and then those changes started influencing the way that everybody [00:13:30] else at the bottom of this chain of command thought about how they used energy and they became more aware of it in their lives and they became smarter about what they were doing. And then that led to pressure. That led to more changes at the top, which led to more cultural changes at the bottom. And you kind of get this nice feedback loop, but I think it has to start with what kind of pressures we put on our government, not just in terms of you need to do this because it's good for the environment, but here are these really good practical things we're going to get out [00:14:00] of making these changes. Speaker 1: We're going to make our system more stable. We're going to make us better able to deal with weather, with terrorism, with all these different things that can affect the grid. And I think that that's a good place to start. How vulnerable is the grid to attack either physically or software wise? Software wise it's not very much right now. It will be more when we have a smart grid and I think this is something that worries people a lot and I think it's reasonable cause it's a reasonable risk, but we have [00:14:30] to kind of consider the balance between benefits and detriments. You know the analogy I ended up using in the book was my dad's typewriter from 1986 was a lot less vulnerable to cyber attack and identity theft than his internet enabled computer now. But I don't think he'd ever go back to that typewriter because their stuff he gets from that Internet enabled computer that he could never possibly get otherwise. And I think that we [00:15:00] need to be cautious in how we set things up. We need to be intelligent in how we set up our security systems and we need to know that we're not ever going to have anything set up perfectly and there's going to be failures, but that the benefits are going to outweigh the risks. Speaker 2: [inaudible]Speaker 1: you're listening to spectrum on k a l ex Maggie. Chris Baker is discussing [00:15:30] her recent book before the lights go out. Speaker 1: Do you think dynamic pricing of energy has any role? Definitely does. This is another one of those aspects of how you reduce demand and reduce the need to build new power plants has to do a lot with reducing those peak loads. When we build power plants, we don't just build power plants for the amount of energy that is used. Most of the time we have to [00:16:00] build power plants for the theoretical peak in energy that we might hit at any given point, which means we have a lot of power plants in the u s that aren't actually producing much electricity and it just kind of sitting in idle for most of the year because we need them in the middle of summer, in the afternoon. And if we can cut those peak loads down, that means that we don't have to have as many of those things. They don't have to be on, they don't have to be idling because idling is not a really efficient way to use those fuels. Speaker 1: [00:16:30] So that's where the dynamic pricing thing comes in because right now if you are a business, you are charged for electricity in a really different way than individuals are. As a business, your electricity costs more when people want more of it and costs less when people want less of it so that you're kind of incentivized to not use electricity during that peak time. We don't charge people in residential areas like that and [00:17:00] I think that there could be a big benefit. It would take also implementing systems so people know what's going on because if you don't know that the cost changes throughout the day, there's really nothing you can do about it. But there's some really cool technologies, like a, an orb that sits on your table and changes color based on the price of electricity or you know what demand for electricity is like. And so you can look at that and know, well, the orb is red. Speaker 1: I shouldn't run the dishwasher right now, and that's the kind [00:17:30] of thing that you need built in if you're going to make dynamic pricing work, don't to swap out all of your appliances. Right. Which is a nice thing. Also, one of the things I found interesting about the book is that you get a lot of evidence for climate change, but then you also say even if you don't believe in climate change, energy efficiency is still very important. Yeah. This is one of those things that I was really surprised by when I was doing the research was the idea that I don't have to convince people that climate change is real in order to convince them that we need energy change. This [00:18:00] is something people are willing to sign on for for a whole host of reasons. There was a really great story that ended up opening the book with where a nonprofit in Kansas was doing these focus groups to kind of find out what people thought about climate and energy and kind of get a good idea of, you know, how they would develop their programs. Speaker 1: And they kept running over and over into these situations where you'd have some guy talking about how climate change is a socialist plot. It's going to destroy us all. And then you'd ask him, you know, [00:18:30] what are you doing about energy? And the same guy would have switched out all of his light bulb to cfls and he'd owned a Prius and he was excited about wind power because he was excited about those things for different reasons. To save a lot of money. He gets to save money, he gets to be part of this Apollo project, kind of USA, USA kind of thing. And you know, there's lots of different reasons why people care about this stuff. There are opportunities we're missing to communicate with people in their language, their cultural language instead [00:19:00] of trying to convince them to be part of our cultural language. And I think that's a mistake that we make a lot as you know, communicators of sustainability and of environmentalism is that we don't make a big enough effort to talk to people in different cultural languages. Speaker 3: I would like to say I really like your footnotes in the book. They're not only like useful links that were, you know, I was able to fall on my kindle. I don't know how useful they are in the hard backwards. I don't know about that either. The uh, [00:19:30] just the stories that are hitting back there are, are absolutely fantastic. So what sort of motivated you to put all that in? Speaker 1: Not being able to cut out great stories that didn't quite have a place in the main text. You know, there's just so many cool things that I learned that didn't quite fit with the narrative of the story and I needed a place to put them. And then I had all these footnotes and now there's like 50 pages of footnotes, but one like one of my favorites was the [00:20:00] story of Thomas Edison when he was developing the grid system in New York City, which was the first grid system in the world. And they had this faulty junction box under a street corner that when it rained and the ground got saturated that you had kind of an electric connection up to the street. And that ended up leading to everybody in New York crowded around the street corner watching horses and buggies go by and then the horses hitting this electrified patch of ground and like rearing [00:20:30] and freaking out and kind of got to the point apparently where people sort of like urging them on like, no, no, there's no problem here and bring your horse through. Speaker 1: Um, and so they finally called down Edison's staff bowsers. Yeah, exactly. Basically giant joy buzzer. And they finally down Edison staff to get this thing fixed. And so they get it fixed and everything's fine. But then the next day, this used horse salesman shows up at Edison's office asking him to install an intentionally faulty junction box under [00:21:00] his used horse paddock to make the horses look more energetic than they actually are. And that's really where the story ends in the Edison archives. There's no record of whether or not he took the guy up on that offer. Has the way you use energy actually changed at all? Definitely. It's changed not because of the book. It changed when my husband got the job that he has. Uh, we've done a lot to make our house more energy efficient. We have a 1920s bungalow in Minneapolis that, you know, it's, [00:21:30] it's not going to be something where we can like reorient it on the site and make it save energy. Speaker 1: But there's a lot of things that were already done because of how they used to design buildings that involved that, you know, we have a 40 foot wide lot and our house is not right in the middle of it. Our House is set so that the north side of our lot is extremely small. Like is basically the smallest setback you can possibly have while the south side of our lot is much wider. And that was done in old Minneapolis neighborhoods [00:22:00] specifically. So you got more light coming in during the winter and more warmth and we're able to capture some of that energy that you wouldn't be able to capture otherwise if your house didn't have that kind of setback. So, I mean there's a lot of that kind of stuff that was built into how our house was built. And we've since gone through and my husband has like an expanding foam addiction and took it through the entire house and basically patched up everything that could possibly be construed as a, uh, leak in the house. [00:22:30] So we're, we're held up now with our, uh, with stucco and expanding foam. Oh, make it bigger. Thanks for joining. Yes, thank you so much. Speaker 2: [inaudible].Speaker 1: Now for some science news headlines, here's Brad swift and Lisa Katovich Speaker 2: [inaudible].Speaker 4: [00:23:00] The California condors returned to flying free in the wild after a close brush with extinction, maybe an illusory recovery. The hundred plus condors soaring over California swallow so much led shot as they scavenge carcasses that the population can't sustain itself without steady medical care and continual resupply from captive populations. Toxicologist Myra Finkelstein of UC Santa Cruz described analyses of lead [00:23:30] in blood and feathers in the June 25th proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. Each year about 20% of the state's monitored birds flunk their lead tests badly enough to need detox. This grim paper supplies the data to confirm the toll of lead ammunition on condors in the wild, regional or species. Specific regulations do restrict ammunition in California and Arizona, the two states where condos live, but those rules don't seem to be solving the problem without a politically difficult nationwide ban [00:24:00] on lead ammunition. California condors will exist in the wild only due to costly extensive human intervention. Essentially in an outdoor zoo state Speaker 5: science news reports that quantum information has leaped through the air about 100 kilometers in two new experiments further and with greater fidelity than ever before. The research brings truly long distance quantum communication networks in which satellites could beam encrypted information around the globe closer to reality. [00:24:30] Both studies involve quantum teleportation, which transports the quantum state of one particle to another. This star trek like feet is possible because of a phenomenon called entanglement in which pairs of particles become linked in such a way that measuring a certain property in one instantly determines the same property for the other, even if separated by large distances. In the first experiment, Anton Zeilinger of the University of Vienna and his colleagues used a pair of entangled photons [00:25:00] to transmit a piece of quantum information over 143 kilometers between two of the Canary Islands. In the second experiment, John Way Pawn of the University of Science and technology of China in Shanghai and his colleagues and tangled many protons together and teleported information 97 kilometers across the lake in China. These experiments are a milestone towards future satellite based quantum teleportation. Speaker 4: In the July issue of [00:25:30] the Journal cell, researchers from Stanford University reported the world's first complete computer model of an organism, the bacteria, Mycoplasma genitalium, a humble parasitic bacterium known mainly for showing up uninvited in the human urogenital and respiratory tracks. Its distinction is that it contains the smallest genome of any free living organism, only 525 genes as opposed to the 4,288 genes of eco lie. [00:26:00] The final model made use of more than 1900 experimentally determined parameters to integrate these disparate data points into a unified machine. Researchers modeled individual biological processes at 28 separate modules each governed by its own algorithm. These modules communicated to each other after every step making for a unified whole that closely matched the bacteria as real world behavior models like this could bring rational design to biology, allowing for computer guided experimental regimes and wholesale [00:26:30] creation of new micro organisms.

Gregor Weihs ist seit 2008 Professor für Photonik am Institut für Experimentalphysik der Universität Innsbruck. In seiner Antrittsvorlesung am 23. März 2010 präsentierte er vor Kollegen, Studierenden, Familie und Freunden seine Vorstellungen von der Zukunft der Kommunikation. Die Photonik beschäftigt sich mit den Grundlagen und Anwendungen von optischen Verfahren und Technologien für die Übertragung, Speicherung und Verarbeitung von Information. Welche Rolle die Gesetze der Quantenmechanik für die sichere Kommunikation im Internet der Zukunft spielen werden, skizzierte Gregor Weihs an einigen anschaulichen Beispielen und Experimenten. Die große Aufgabe der zukünftigen Forschung sieht er in der Miniaturisierung von Komponenten für die Quantenkommunikation. Mit seiner Arbeitsgruppe in Innsbruck arbeitet er in unterschiedlichen Richtungen an diesem Ziel.
