From La Nazione Pisa, March 15, 2021: The center directed by Fermilab’s Anna Grassellino has the task of developing a state-of-the-art quantum computer with unprecedented performances based on superconducting technologies.
From Gazzetta del Sud online, March 7, 2021: On the eve of International Women’s Day, Fermilab’s Anna Grassellino is highlighted in this story about her career accomplishment as the lead of the SQMS program at Fermilab.
The inability of scientists to create a theory of quantum gravity arises from long-standing tensions between general relativity and quantum mechanics. There have been few approaches with any success. Don Lincoln explains one of the few promising ideas, called loop quantum gravity, in this 9-minute video.
