Niels Bohr Lecture by Stephen Taylor, Vanderbilt University

Charting the Gravitational-wave Universe At Light-year Wavelengths
Largest collision ever recorded: Gravitational waves shake the very fabric of the universe when black holes collide. Today we measure these events and use them to understand the cosmos.
LARGEST COLLISION EVER RECORDED:

Colossal Collisions in Space send Shockwaves through the Universe

Two young researchers from NBI awarded ERC starting grants

Quantum researchers have deployed a new algorithm to manage noise in qubits in real time. The method can be applied to a wide range of different qubits, even in large numbers.
QUANTUM COMPUTING:

Clever algorithm results in a new method to mitigate noise in quantum devices

For the first time, Denmark is establishing production of microchip wafers at the leading standard. This makes Denmark a global player in chip production. The new “wafer factory,” which will be part of the University of Copenhagen, also gives a major advantage to Danish quantum researchers.
TECH:

Denmark can now contribute to producing world-class chips

Physics at the University of Copenhagen

At the Niels Bohr Institute at the University of Copenhagen, we research and teach within a broad spectrum of physics areas: Quantum computers and quantum communication, astrophysics, particle physics, computational physics, solid state physics, climate and geophysics and biophysics.

Research facilities

With us, you get access to a wide range of advanced equipment in bio- and quantum technology, supercomputers, workshops in both electronics and mechanics as well as special laboratory facilities that are necessary to support the research process. Our astrophysicists have observation time on the largest telescopes, e.g. James Webb Space Telescope.
