Almost a year ago, this cover came out. Cropped from an illustration I made for a brilliant article in @physicsworld.bsky.social covering weird phenomena of quantum Cheshire cat. physicsworld.com/a/curiouser-... #SciArt #Quantum #Physics #SciComm

A beautiful art installation, doing justice to the prose of Ted Chiang. A commentary on humanity and the arrogance of human uniqueness, delivered with zero bitterness from the perspective of our nonhuman friends, parrots. Video: vimeo.com/195588827 #TedChiang #BookSky #TheGreatSilence #SciArt

Happy (more than happy!) to see my illustrations at this special spot 😊 bsky.app/profile/shre...

Finally, a book that does justice to the hidden heroes of #quantum physics: Landau, Anderson, Wilson i.e., cond. mat. physics community. Symmetry breaking & renormalization, concepts which unite #physics. It includes key papers from many-body physics (see timeline). Looking forward to reading it!!
Frank VerstraeteHappy to see our book "Why Nobody Understands Quantum Physics" published in English www.panmacmillan.com/authors/fran.... Unlike other popular science books, we explain quantum and its applications in the way working physicists use and understand them, without shying away from the many-body problem.
New illustrations ALERT: @physicsworld.bsky.social article by @mariaviolaris.bsky.social Had fun representing the #physics behind 'Quantum Eraser' from #quantum information POV- a challenging topic. New elements (photon hits) were introduced for visual clarity. #IYQ2025 #SciArt shorturl.at/VLhxZ
Five illustrations: 3 schematics + 2 frontispieces—exploring the quirkiest quantum effects, published in @physicsworld.bsky.social (Quantum Briefing 2025)! [@ioppublishing.bsky.social, @iopp-quantum.bsky.social] physicsworld.com/p/magazine/a... #Quantum #SciArt #IYQ2025
I made a new illustration for an article in Physics World magazine. It captures another weird and non-trivial effect from quantum physics — the #quantum Cheshire Cat. Science dictates the design, and the images show brief summary and design choices. #SciArt #Quantum #Physics #illustration
Physics WorldContinuing our spotlight on quantum effects so “weird” they make superposition and entanglement seem almost ordinary, Iulia Georgescu explores the curiosity that is a quantum Cheshire cat. 🧪⚛️ physicsworld.com/a/curiouser-...
Excellent summary!
Margaret HarrisI wrote about the quantum Zeno effect for a series in @physicsworld.bsky.social. We're celebrating the International Year of Quantum by discussing #quantum effects so weird that even many physicists have never heard of them. You can read more about it here: physicsworld.com/a/the-quantu... 🧪⚛️(4/4)
“The problem is that in quantum mechanics it is almost impossible . . . to say what you mean, or perhaps even to know what you mean, because you are dealing with concepts that defy language.” - @philipcball.bsky.social , Beyond Weird (2018) [1/n] physicsworld.com/a/the-quantu...
The quantum Zeno effect: how the ‘measurement problem’ went from philosophers’ paradox to physicists’ toolbox – Physics WorldA stand-out example of quantum weirdness is turning out to be surprisingly useful, as Margaret Harris explainsphysicsworld.comHow the ‘Island of the Colourblind’ made Oliver Sacks rethink ‘normal’, a beautiful film portraying thoughts of a beautiful human being. #colorblindness #oliversacks #neurodiversity #neurrotypical youtu.be/HbaazbdIR_g
