Konstanzer Physiker an den Quantencomputer-Projekten SPINNING und QSolid des Bundesministeriums für Bildung und Forschung beteiligt

SiliconPV 2022: The University of Konstanz invites international experts from science and industry to attend the conference and associated workshops in the Konstanzer Konzil

Einem Konstanzer Forschungsteam gelingt die Lösung eines jahrzehntealten physikalischen Rätsels: der Frage nach dem Verbleib des Drehimpulses bei der ultraschnellen Entmagnetisierung von Nickelkristallen durch Laserlicht

The laws of quantum physics are not only extraordinary – they also offer some far-reaching and unique possibilities for advanced information processing, quantum computing and cryptography. So far, the basic building blocks for such quantum operations are electric circuitry in form of superconducting resonators, light in form of photons or atoms in form of ion chains. However, all these quantum systems have their drawbacks, and scientists are therefore continuously searching for useful…

An international research team led by scientists at the University of Konstanz makes a path-breaking discovery in strontium ruthenate – with potential for new applications in quantum electronics

Direct correlation functions (DCFs) play a central role in the statistical mechanics description of matter. DCFs provide relevant information about the structure and the thermodynamics of a system and are - in the case of solids - closely related to local defects and mechanical properties. The explicit evaluation of DCFs for an ordered solid has been considered to be computationally too demanding, so far; therefore these functions are traditionally approximated by their liquid counterparts. New…

Is physics dry and boring? Not at all! And we’re ready to prove it: Come along to our Christmas lecture and prepare to be amazed. Let us treat you and your pupils to a number of exciting, astounding and entertaining experiments. The Tag der Physik is your chance to explore our department and research through a variety of tours and lectures.

Tag der Physik (physics day) 2021 takes place on December 15th, 2021 Covid-19-pandemic permitting.

Many thanks to the presenters of the Bachelor Thesis Day.
