The Line Up

Have you ever tasted quantum mechanics? Alison Goldingay (UNSW) thinks it might be yummy, and is bringing snacks so we can perform the experiment.

Larissa Huston’s (CSIRO) talk will transform your life! Fourier transform it, that is.

How many galaxies can you fit into a pub? Mali Land-Strykowski (Sydney Uni) knows - I’m betting it’s in the thousands!

Russell Olwell (Notre-Dame) is going to tell us about the surprising link between quantum physics and the cold war.

Benjamin Pope’s (Macquarie) research is right out of this world. Out of this solar system, actually - he looks at exoplanets, planets orbiting other stars.

Physicists are united in their goal to advance human knowledge, and this transcends petty rivalries, right? Wrong, says Sue Farroukh (Sydney Catholic Schools).

There are artificial monuments on the moon, and mars. Honest! It’s in a book, so it must be true says Jack Foster (Sydney Observatory).

Junliang Wang (CQC2T) says quantum computing is just like playing billiards, with electrons!

Speaking on behalf of event Sponsor, S3B, we'll hear from David Reilly, Co-Founder and CEO of Emergence Quantum.

MCed by Dr Phil Dooley (Phil Up on Science).
