The non-common sense of quantum physics | Alberto Casas | TEDxMadrid

Показать описание
This talk was given at a local TEDx event, produced independently of the TED Conferences. Common sense is based on our own experience. The problem is that our direct experience is quite limited. As soon as we go beyond it, common-sense is not a reliable guide anymore. Quantum physics shows, more than any other scientific theory, that the world, as we perceive it, is an optical illusion. The actual reality is far more disturbing and counter-intuitive… but also far more fascinating.
Alberto Casas is research professor at the Instiitute for Theoretical Physics (IFT-UAM/CSIC), in Madrid. He has worked during years in the Universities of Oxford and California (Santa Cruz), as well as at CERN (European Centre for particle Physics, Geneva). His areas of research are particle physics and cosmology, focused on the connection between theory and experiment. He has published more than 90 scientific articles and several outreach books.
About TEDx, x = independently organized event In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
