He Doesn't Throw Dice! (What Quantum Physics Tell Us About the Nature of Chance and Why It's Worth a Nobel Prize)
The Nobel Prize in Physics was awarded in 2022 for pioneering experiments with entangled photons. These experiements are not only unimaginably important for fundamental physics, but also brought a 100-year-old debate between Albert Einstein and Nils Bohr to an end. They showed that indeterminableness is an integral part of our world. In the lecture, we will investigate the Nobel Prize in two experiments; in one of them, we will learn if we are entangled with one another or not. Almost no formulas, I promise.
