- Summary:
- Over the past several years, physicists worldwide have worked hard to develop the quantum computer, a device that will use principles of quantum physics to revolutionize the computer industry. Taming the Quantum World explains how such computing will change the world, in such ways as generating virtual simulations that can help address problems as complex as global warming and cybersecurity. Scientists from all over Europe talk of their hopes as well as their frustrations in coming to an understanding of the mysteries of the quantum world. Woven throughout the film is the disagreement between Albert Einstein and Neils Bohr regarding what is 'knowable' in the universe. Taming the Quantum World will stimulate students of science to explore the challenging mysteries that surround us.
