DUE TO THE CURRENT SITUATION REGARDING THE COVID-19, FIRA DE BARCELONA HAS DECIDED TO CANCEL THE 2020 EDITION. WE WILL KEEP THE INFORMATION UPDATED HERE. 

 

The simulations on quantum mechanics will be present at the Science Space of the Saló de l'Ensenyament 2020. 

This year, the two workshops ClassicalLab and QuantumLab will be teaching us how simulate with the computer different experiments that show the quantum properties of matter.  In particular, we will simulate the movement of a gorup of ultracold atoms, the moviment of a soliton in an atomic gas at 0 degrees or the simulation of a Newton's quantum pendulum.

RESUM:

Començarem amb el mètode científic i la importància de la curiositat i l’observació. Introduiré conceptes quàntics comparant una pilota amb una partícula quàntica.

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.

 

Projecte
Simulations of Quantum Mechanics

Simulations of Quantum Mechanics starts as a collaborative project involving undergraduate students, professors and researchers. It is based on the development of computer programs, created by students under the supervision of professors, which allow introducing basic concepts of quantum mechanics and the physics of ultracold gases to the students of baccalaureate and degree. The programs carried out aim to be rigorous from the scientific point of view, solving the relevant equations in a precise manner, combined with a graphical interface that allows users to interact with them in a pleasant way.

OBJECTIVES:
Encourage cooperation among seniors of degree  
Bring seniors in the research that takes place in our department
Produce a useful tool for the dissemination of science at the high school level
