The Institute of Cosmos Sciences researcher Bruno Julià will give a talk about Quantum Cold next Monday July 26 at the Science Enthusiasts Association Sopa de Partículas at the Guinardó Community Center.

 

As Dr. Julià explains, «We will visit the history of the concept cold and our hability to cool down objects and materials. This will be the main theme along which we will arrive to near absolute zero temperatures. At this point, Quantum Mechanics starts playing a crucial role, giving birth to new states of matter such as Bose-Einstein condensates and to properties unknow in the classical world as uperconductivity or superfluidity». If you are curious about the mysterious properties of ultracold matter, don't miss this conference!

ADMIRA Project: Activities with Medipix Detectors to Research Radiation in the Classroom

The ADMIRA Project (Activities with Medipix Detectors to Investigate Radiation in the classroom) aims to create a network of schools around the use of Timepix Detectors designed at CERN. The objective is to bring the Institutes closer to the research done in Universities and Research Centers. A group of schools that have participated in a selection process will use these devices in their classrooms. Teacher training activities will be open to any institute teacher who is interested (with the aim of expanding the network in future editions).

On this website you can consult the objectives of the ADMIRA project, the ways of participating and the activities offered for teachers and students. You can also find the didactic orientations, skills and key contents that are intended to work.
