From June 20 to 28, 2026, it was all about playing, playing, playing – and learning, of course! Together with other projects of the Quantum aktiv initiative sponsored by the BMFTR [German] we had a booth at IdeenExpo [German], a science fair for young people in Hanover with free admission and an exciting scedule of events.
What’s the deal with special diamonds and how can they detect magnetic fields so accurately? Which protocol can we use for secure data transmission? How are quantum algorithms built, which are needed to use quantum computers? At our booth many school students, teachers and other interested people learned about different quantum technologies and found answers to these questions.
