    experiment. It also provides a new way to obtain random numbers. That way, distant quasars where for the first time applied as random number generators. Predictions of quantum mechanics confirmed The quantum physicists at the Austrian Academy of Sciences and the University of Vienna have been pioneering many such experiments. Already in February 2017, a pilot experiment was performed, where the cosmic light came from stars in our Milky Way Galaxy, which were only a few ...

A research team led by Marc Luy from the Institute of Demography of the Austrian Academy of Sciences (OeAW) has investigated how changes in educational structure affect life expectancy. The study, which also involved researchers from Sophia University in Tokyo and the Sapienza University of Rome, was published in the journal Genus - Journal of Population Sciences . Education in society as a whole positively influences life expectancy The study ...

    New book puts peace treaty of Saint-Germain under scrutiny
    09.09.2019
    treaties have for history and how can they be judged from today's perspective? The historian Arnold Suppan addresses these questions in his new book "Imperialist Peace Order – Saint-Germain and Trianon, 1919-20", published by the Austrian Academy of Sciences Press. Curtailing Berlin’s imperialist politics For his book Suppan researched previously unknown archive material, especially from East-Central and Southeast Europe, in order to develop a comprehensive perspective of ...

    “String breaking” observed in 2D quantum simulator
    04.06.2025
    experimentally, as it only occurs in nature under extreme conditions. The recent work by scientists from the Universities of Innsbruck and Harvard, the Institute for Quantum Optics and Quantum Information (IQOQI) Innsbruck of the Austrian Academy of Sciences (OeAW) and the quantum computer company QuEra shows for the first time how this phenomenon can be reproduced in an analog quantum simulator. Simulating elementary particle physics with atoms Based on a proposal by Peter ...

    INFORMATION TRANSFER IN QUANTUM COMMUNICATION IMPROVED
    12.01.2021
    "Information can be lost over long distances because there is always background noise, for example from photons from the sun," explains Marcus Huber from the Institute for Quantum Optics and Quantum Information Vienna of the Austrian Academy of Sciences in Vienna. This places practical limits on both the bandwidth and the security of such communication channels. Together with colleagues from Edinburgh, as well as from Bratislava and Brno, Austrian researchers have now ...

    Herd immunity: How far we really are from it
    28.01.2021
    Test, test, test. In many countries, tests for SARS-CoV-2 are considered an important requirement for containing the pandemic. But can they detect all infections? Researchers at the Vienna Institute of Demography of the Austrian Academy of Sciences (OeAW) and the Technical University of Vienna have now reevaluated previous testing strategies, the case fatality rate, and the concept of herd immunity using mathematical models. They describe their approach in the journal PLOS ...

    Das Klima physikalisch im Blick
    24.01.2018
    Atmosphäre, Ozeanen und dem Energieverbrauch ist komplex, und die Menschheit steht vor der Herausforderung, ihren Einfluss auf das Klima zu begrenzen und sich an den Klimawandel anzupassen. Steven E. Koonin, Physiker und Direktor des Center for Urban Science and Progress an der New York University stellt in seinem Vortrag zum Thema „Certainities and Uncertainities in our Energy and Climate Futures“ Möglichkeiten vor, zu lernen, mit dem Klimawandel umzugehen. Vor allem geht ...
