2025 Marie Curie Lectures – Your quantum future with Dr Sol H Jacobsen
The humble electron is a pillar of modern technology. They power almost every aspect of daily life, from your toaster to your phone. But these devices use only one quantum property of the electrons: their charge. Today, physicists are harnessing other properties – such as their “spin” – to advance a new technological revolution. This…
Pocket Solar System
Inspired by the United States National Informal STEM Education Network, Pocket Solar System is a hands-on activity in which participants make a scale model of the distances between objects in our solar system. This activity is designed children aged 10 and over and will expand children’s understanding of the Solar System, bringing in the dimension…
