The Spanish Physicist, winner of the Principe de Asturias Prize, gave a lecture at the Institute about the so-called “second quantum revolution” and its applications in cryptography and computation.

“With a quantum computer we will be able to solve problems which are imposible with present day supercomputers” “For our day to day transactions by internet (purchases, private messages etc) we code the information using mult-digit keys which ensures that no current computer can decipher them” “The experiments with quantum entanglement carried out at the IAC’s Observatories, between telescopes on Tenerife and La Palma will help us to develop technologies based on entanglement and quantum teletransportation”. By Hector Socas (IAC) The discovery of quantum physics gave rise to one of the most
