    Science Days 2019
    23.07.2019
    The Science Days 2019 took place at the International Academy Traunkirchen next to the picturesque Traunsee. These interdisciplinary workshops help the members to stay informed about each other’s current projects and to find a “common language”, regardless of disciplinary backgrounds. The talks on topics such as Ecological Longtime-Research, Applied Mathematics, Material Chemistry, Ancient Liguistics, Neurobiology, Religion Studies und Microbiology were very inspiring and ...

Quantum experiments during the day instead of at night For the first time, this method of quantum entanglement could also work in daylight conditions. Until now, there were only a few experiments that also worked during the day. Because the sun causes a high level of noise, most quantum physics experiments over a free-space link are performed at night. ...

You have to make an effort just to be able to take in all the titles", says Mario Krenn from the University of Toronto. Together with Anton Zeilinger, quantum physicist at the Austrian Academy of Sciences and the University of Vienna, Krenn has now demonstrated an innovative solution to this problem in the journal "Proceedings of the National Academy of ...

    for example, ‘Enter Sandman’ from Metallica”, Balazs says. From a scientific point of view, how noise differs from, for example, music is difficult to answer objectively. “I have carried out surveys with examples here at our open day for the International Noise Awareness Day and have never got uniform results”, Balazs says. Sound can also cause damage. With loud sounds, damage can be done very quickly. Long-term, moderate noise pollution can result in stress and thus also ...

It is coordinated by Walter Pohl, director of the Institute for Medieval Research of the Austrian Academy of Sciences (OeAW) and Professor at the University of Vienna. In an interview, Walter Pohl explains how centuries-old genetic material can be researched and what can thereby be learned about the history of Europe. What ...

Underestimated danger The strongest documented solar storm to date, the so-called Carrington Event, took place in 1859. "At that time there was damage to the telegraph network and aurora (polar lights) ...

    Creativity in virtual laboratories

    the archive is closed? And what archeological insights can be gained if distant excavation sites are inaccessible? Basic researchers are currently faced with several such critical questions. As virtual exchange with researchers from the Austrian Academy of Sciences (OeAW) shows, their answers are as creative as they are cooperative. "Research is open for business!" - Jochen Schieck is sure of that. Nonetheless, given the current circumstances, it is clear to the director of ...

    WWTF supports corona research at the OeAW
    15.04.2020
    There is still a lot that we do not know about the rampant coronavirus SARS-CoV-2. The fact that we know a little more every day is thanks to the intense efforts of the international scientific community. In Austria too, scientists are working nonstop to contribute crucial pieces to the bigger puzzle to solve the corona pandemic. The life sciences are currently particularly challenged. But the humanities, cultural sciences and social sciences are also in demand to analyze ...
