Estimadas/os,

Les invitamos al próximo coloquio del DF a cargo de,

Serge Haroche (Collège de France, Paris)
The laser in quantum science

This year marks the 100th anniversary of quantum mechanics. Among all 
the inventions born of this physics, the laser occupies an important 
place, both for the lineage of discoveries that led to its birth, and 
for the role it plays today in fundamental and applied science. It has 
opened up fields in research that could not have been imagined at the 
time it was invented. We owe to it the cooling and trapping of atoms, 
the study of quantum gases of bosons and fermions, the discovery of 
gravitational waves and the manipulation of individual quantum particles 
which has led to current research into quantum simulation and quantum 
computing. The laser may also provide answers to fundamental questions 
about the physics beyond the Standard Model or about the nature of the 
hypothetical dark matter. The history of the laser in blue sky science 
illustrates the passion for precision and the essential link between 
basic research and technological advances that have driven modern 
science since its advent in the Age of Enlightenment.
