The New Quantum Era

15
Physics #7

Your hosts, Sebastian Hassinger and Kevin Rowney, interview brilliant research scientists, software developers, engineers and others actively exploring the possibilities of our new quantum era. We will cover topics in quantum computing, networking and sensing, focusing on hardware, algorithms and general theory. The show aims for accessibility - neither of us are physicists! - and we'll try to provide context for the terminology and glimpses at the fascinating history of this new field as it evolves in real time.

    A mind expanding podcasts for the public
    This excellent podcast fills a major void for content on the quantum world that falls between “Quantum Computing Will Change the World!!!”-style Youtube videos and full-blown academic papers. As a professional market researcher and non-expert in this space I find this podcast extremely educational and thought provoking. Each episode leaves me with several rabbit holes to jump down. Keep up the good work in 2024!

    Striking the right balance of science and accessibility
    This is the best discussion of quantum computing I know of for non-physicists. Unlike so many other quantum podcasts that gloss the subject at the press release level, this one introduces current scientific research in an accessible way, by sharing the researchers personal stories and acknowledging the many academic paths that have informed quantum computing.

    For the uneducated this rocks
    For someone who has no experience in the field of quantum computing or higher mathematical computation, these are great podcasts. For me personally, I have a deep interest in quantum computing and quantum physics. my background in commercial construction has no relevance to this topic in the educational aspect. I would encourage anybody to listen to all these podcasts as they are flat out amazing and I don’t understand everything I’m listening too however, the concepts are totally relatable and visual in some aspects. Great job podcast developers!
  • CamoCatX
    Absolutely wonderful podcast
    This is seriously the most underrated podcast I have yet to come across. The conversations are very informative and interesting. Highly recommend!
  • Hobbescire
    Thank you
    Hello! I figured I would share that the episode with Grant Salton was the first podcast I’ve ever listened to and it was fantastic. I love prodding the fringe of what we know (and philosophically that which we think we know) on both quantum and universal levels as a balanced whole. I will definitely work my way through the preceding podcasts! Thank you for the available content. - Eric
