The core activity of the group is quantum mechanics, with particular attention to its foundations: the measurement problem, the meaning of the wave function, entaglement and nonlocality, the quantum-to-classical transition, the relation between quantum theory and relativity/gravity. Active collaboations include mathematical, theoretical and experimental physicists. Read more

Friday, May 5, 2017 - 18:00 Giovanni Perosa (University of Trieste, Italy)
The aim of this seminar is to describe the problem affecting heat transfer equation in a relativistic frame and the efforts to solve it. |
Tuesday, April 11, 2017 - 16:30 Mauro Paternostro (Queen's University Belfast, U.K.)
Thermodynamics is an inherently macroscopic theory that describes energy-exchange processes between a system and its environment, and the extraction of work from a driven system. |
