The Free State of Thuringia wants to become a hub for the German #quantum|network. A visit by Minister Wolfgang Tiefensee yesterday in Erfurt marked the start of the further expansion of the German network for #quantumcommunication. https://www.iof.fraunhofer.de/en/pressrelease/2023/Launch-Q-net-Q-2023.html

New key experiment for highly secure #quantumcommunication successfully completed: Researchers from the #QuNET initiative have successfully distributed #quantumkeys between two points using a combination of free-space and fiber links under everyday conditions.

Today and yesterday representatives of #BMBF and @VDIVDE_IT
are visiting Fraunhofer IOF. The reason for the meeting with the involved research partners of the #QuNET initiative, is the Key Experiment 1 (Schlüsselexperiment 1; SE1) & research on secure #quantumcommunication.

The mere idea of measuring a quantity changes it. After all, we are mortal beings, devoid of god-like powers, we can only measure things rather than direct observations of microscopic systems.

Hence, it is important to understand Measurements in Quantum Systems and Fundamental Theory.
