The guest of this episode was Professor Wolfgang Ketterle. Wolfgang Ketterle is a researcher at MIT who works mostly in the area of ultra-cold atoms. He has won several awards for his research including the Nobel Prize in 2001 for the realization of the Bose-Einstein condensate. Most of the episode revolve around his current research, his opinions regarding the fundations of quantum mechanics and, of course, the Bose Einstein condensate.

The guest of this episode was quantum physicist Andrzej Dragan. Andrzej Dragan is a researcher at the University of Warsaw and the University of Singapur, whose work combines aspects of both Quantum Mechanics and General Relativity. Most of the talk revolved around these topics as well as his views about AI and its impact in the world. Andrzej Dragan is also a renown photographer, so we also talked about his artistic work and how AI can influence art and the way we consume it.

The guest of this episode was Alessandra Colla. Alessandra Colla is a PhD student at University of Freiburg who works on the field of Quantum Thermodynamics. In this episode we discuss some of the basics of thermodynamics, its laws and implications, until arriving to the main subject of Quantum Thermodynamics. Here we talked about how thermodynamics and quantum physics mix, a general overview of the field, the challenges as well as the prospects of the field. A lot of the talk also was around Alessandra's very cool paper, titled 'Open System Approach to Nonequilibrium Quantum Thermodynamics at Arbitrary Coupling' (https://arxiv.org/pdf/2109.11893.pdf).

The first guest of the podcast was quantum theoretical physicist Tomaž Prosen. Tomaž Prosen is a researcher at the University of Ljubljana, who has made several contributions in the areas of Chaos Theory, Non-Equilibrium Dynamics, Statistical Mechanics and Transport Theory. In this episode we discuss his research work as well as his views on the prospects of Quantum Computing.

In this episode we had the opportunity to talk with theoretical physicist Sašo Grozdanov. Sašo Grozdanov is a researcher at the University of Ljubljana and at the Higgs Centre for Theoretical Physics of the University of Edinburgh, who works mainly in the field of String Theory. In this talk he gives a general explanation about what String Theory is, its major accomplishments as well as its problematic aspects. He also explains how he uses String Theory, in particular what is known as the AdS/CFT correspondence, to study objects like Black Holes, Quantum Chaos and Plasma Physics.

In this third episode we counted with the presence of Sven Jandura. Sven Jandura is a PhD student at the European Center for Quantum Sciences in Strasbourg, who despite his young age is already an expert in the subject of Quantum Computation and Rydberg Atoms for its implementation. In this talk he explains the basics of Quantum Computing, its possibilities, limitations, as well as some of the possible platforms focusing on the use of Rydberg Atoms for Quantum Computing.

The guest of this episode was Theoretical Quantum Physicist Johannes Schachenmayer. Johannes Schachenmayer is a researcher at the University of Strasbourg, at the European Center for Quantum Sciences, who does research mainly in the topic of Quantum Many-Body Simulation. In this episode we talked about the basic characteristics of Quantum Physics, Entanglement and its importance in the context of Quantum Many-Body Physics, and also some of the philosophical issues related to Quantum Physics.

The guest of this episode was Andrés Arámburo. Andrés Arámburo is a PhD student at the University of Leiden who focuses on the problem of Dark Matter. In this episode we focus on what are the problems that Dark Matter can solve, the attempts of trying to find it, some of its possible properties, and briefly mention the alternative to Dark Matter. At the end there is also some little advice that some PhD students may find helpful.
