Researchers at ETH Zurich have developed a laser that produces the strongest ultra-short laser pulses to date. In the future, such high power pulses could be used for precision measurements or materials processing.
Physics laboratory technicians from the industry and public research sectors have been attending external training courses in the Department of Physics for a decade.
For this year's Wolfgang Pauli Lecture, John Preskill offered a crash course on quantum information science, from entanglement to error correction for quantum computing.
Thomas Michaels, ETH Zurich Professor of Soft and Living Matter Physics, launches the ETH show series "Cook the Science". Together with well-known chefs and food producers, he will present the fascinating science behind cooking, from the basic physical and chemical properties of food to how these change during cooking.
