Center for Quantum Studies
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Center for Quantum Studies was established at George Mason University in Fairfax, Virginia in the Fall of 2006. The Center was inaugurated on November 29, 2006, by Center Director Jeffrey Tollaksen in honor of the arrival of Yakir Aharonov, prior to the first of the Aharonov Lecture Series talks, which was given by William D. Phillips. The Center's site states its mission is to:
provide a focal point for students, researchers, institutions, state and national governments and industry around the world to collaborate to advance research into the foundations and applications of Quantum Mechanics, Quantum Information Science, Quantum Computing, and Quantum Nueroscience, and to offer support to new fields evolving from them, in mathematics and the social, biological, computational, and physical sciences.
