PROGRAM

Spinoza on Horseback with physicist Leo Kouwenhoven

Date:

16 October 2012

Time:

20:00

Location:

Paard van Troje, Den Haag

 

The discovery of the Majorana fermion caused great excitement in April 2012. But why exactly? What does it mean when a particle is equal to its antiparticle? Are we now able to build a quantum computer? Leo Kouwenhoven will illustrate how it works during Spinoza te Paard (Spinoza on Horseback) on 16 October.
