Quantum Science Short Course by Tonex
Quantum Science Short Course is a 2-day introduction to quantum science, one of the main branches of modern physics that deals with the nature of subatomic particles and energy. This course is especially beneficial for individuals and organizations who want to see the “big picture” in order to communicate with technical as well as non-technical individuals.
Quantum Science Short Course covers the most important aspects of quantum physics without getting too involved in the technical nitty gritty.
Participants will learn how quantum science can help solve complex problem-solving, especially in the realm of computer usage. Quantum computing can provide unprecedented computational speeds.
Additionally, participants learn other current and future benefits of quantum science from accessing more accurate data to faster decision making.
Quantum science is especially important for its innovative possibilities. Quantum discoveries have been incorporated into our foundational understanding of materials, chemistry, biology and astronomy.
Quantum computing, in particular, promises to completely disrupt the way we process information and will allow us to address problems that even the most powerful classical supercomputers would never solve, from the chemistry behind pharmaceutical discoveries to major challenges in code breaking and materials science.
Quantum science can also help provide significantly stronger encryption capabilities for commerce as well as the DoD.
