There are many secrets and mysteries in the world. In history, in space, in science. Even in each of us. What seems like science fiction becomes a scientific discovery and brings a Nobel Prize. For example, quantum entanglement is the main "magic" of quantum reality. We are made up of atoms that live by laws that are completely different from what is studied in physics at school. Quantum theory is perceived as a miracle. It is not observable, but it underlies everything around us. Paradoxically, quantum reality is not a reduced repetition of ours, it is different. And to understand this, we must abandon the usual abstractions of classical physics. Why do quantum objects not look like anything? What do a guinea pig and a wave function have in common? Does a cat create the Moon by looking at it? How does a quantum computer work? Even more interesting discoveries - at the EFKO lecture with Doctor of Physical and Mathematical Sciences Alexey Semikhatov "Mathematical Predictions and Quantum "Magic". About complex things - incredibly interesting, figurative and accessible. Press play. You will find a quantum "casino", secrets of teleportation and a mathematical "oracle"!
