København

Copenhagen, Denmark, Munich Quantum Valley, Niels Bohr Institue, Physics, Quantum Science

This week, I have the pleasure of enjoying Copenhagen once again after quite some time.

Following an invitation of the Munich Quantum Valley (MQV) by Invest in Denmark and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Denmark, I am joining a delegation to visit the Technical University of Denmark (DTU) and the Niels Bohr Institute (NBI) in addition to visiting the IQT Nordics conference.

This also makes up for a great opportunity to see my/our old home and university, refresh old memories and to see all the many changes the city has seen since we left back in 2014.

IPPOG Meeting in Sofia

Bulgaria, BYOPD, CERN, Games, Outreach, Physics, Quantum Science, Sofia

This week I had the pleasure to have been invited to the 25th IPPOG Meeting in Sofia, in fact to talk about Munich Quantum Valley and quantum-computing in general in a quantum-computing panel discussion.

It was a pleasure to reconnect to my former colleagues and discuss what is my new job now with them.
Besides that, Netzwerk Teilchenwelt also presented the ALICE LEGO project I cohosted recently and the Particle Twister game I codeveloped :)

MQV Public Annual Report

Outreach, Physics, Quantum Science

Besides Munich Quantum Valley (MQV) celebrating the first anniversary of the foundation of the Munich Quantum Valley e.V. association, it’s also my first anniversary at MQV.
Having started as ‘Public Outreach Manager’ back in Feb 2022 and taking over as ‘Head of Media Relations and Public Engagement’ in December 2022, I am now also happy to celebrate this occasion with the release of our first Public Annual Report.

Looking forward to a long list of plans and ideas to tackle in the second year and beyond.
Stay tuned an visit the MQV website for both the report and future updates …

30k+ on ATLAS 360°

ATLAS, CERN, Outreach, Physics, Video editing

I was just made aware that my 2020 virtual tour of the ATLAS Experiment filmed in 360° view has reached just above 30k views on YouTube.

Great to see that all the up and down in the cavern, spanning twelve levels and endless camera positions, apparently was worth the effort :)

For those of you that prefer a German tour: here you go, I made one just for you as well.
And if you like science videos (in German), also have a look at my German edit of the Belle II video. They both could still need a few more views 😜
