Officially graduated from my DPhil on Saturday! 🥳
If you read the article, let me know your comments! Did it change your view on the quantum eraser? The role of observers in quantum mechanics? The nature of entanglement? Did it demystify the experiment, or generate more questions?
As per my usual style, it opens with a thought experiment:
"...This text is actually in a superposition of many different articles, but only one of them gets copied into your memory..."
Find out insights from @jonterhance.bsky.social,
@loricatani.bsky.social, Johannes Fankhauser, and my own take, together with great visuals from illustrator @shreshthamayank.bsky.social.
The quantum eraser is often claimed to show that quantum physics lets us "influence the past". But is that really the case? How do modern researchers in quantum foundations use and interpret the quantum eraser thought experiment? It's weird — but maybe not in the way you'd expect.
My feature article about the delayed-choice quantum eraser is out now in @physicsworld.bsky.social!

Three reasons you should care about quantum! Watch until the end to see a real @oqc-tech.bsky.social quantum computer.
Had fun making this collab video with the Institute of Physics.
Snapshot from a fun short video I’ve been working on…!
Had a great time finding out the latest state-of-the-art from researchers in quantum computing and quantum error correction; seeing familiar faces; meeting new people & exploring the busy exhibition halls.
Cool to see what’s happening on all kinds of aspects of quantum!
Just finished a very busy APS Global Physics Summit! Pics: before & after (“after” featuring the coffee-stained and quantum ribbon decorated badge…)
My favourite breakthroughs are the ones that started from someone doing something “just for fun”…!
Watch on YouTube: youtu.be/SlKNdeOCJek?..., also on the “Quantum Foundations Podcast” on all popular audio platforms :)
My podcast on the Constructor Theory of Information with Dr Chiara Marletto is out now!
We have a detailed discussion spanning the foundations and applications of this unifying approach to information and quantum theory.
This appeared on arXiv today, love it when quantum foundations and quantum error correction collide...!
"Contextuality in Quantum Error-Correcting Codes"
Excited to share my latest podcast episode with Vlatko Vedral about testing quantum gravity! Link to watch on YouTube in thread, here’s a teaser… :)
Always liked the no-cloning theorem in quantum information science… such a simple proof combined with far-reaching consequences for physics!
I'm releasing a video series introducing quantum computing! Find out what's coming up.
The series will have four parts, with new episodes Thursdays, on my YouTube channel!
There's also of course the original YouTube videos on my channel:

The Quantum Foundations Podcast is now out on audio platforms (with enhanced audio)!!
Hope you enjoy the new media, more episodes coming to all platforms very soon...!

Info: online talk about superconducting erasure qubits for the Warsaw Quantum Computing Group!
🗓 Date: January 16, 2025
🕕 Time: 18:00 (UTC+1)
📍 Location: Online (Zoom)
📚 Topic: "Developments in superconducting erasure qubits for hardware-efficient quantum error correction"
Anyone interested in a cool approach to QEC where there’s been lots of recent developments, I’m giving an online talk tomorrow about erasure qubits!
Nice! Thanks!
