A completely new optical and highly sensitive sensor that can withstand extreme environments.

The sensor is an optical microchip and therefore contains no electrical parts. This makes it ideal

Quantum objects cannot just be understood as the sum of their parts. This is what makes quantum calculations so complicated. Scientists at TU Wien (Vienna) have now calculated Bose-Einstein-condensates, revealing the secrets of the particles’ collective behaviour.

Quantum systems are extremely hard to analyse if they consist of more than just a few parts. It is not difficult to calc…
