Onur Günlü at the Division of Information Coding is awarded an Industrial Ph.D. grant by the SSF together with Professor Jan-Åke Larsson and Sectra Communications AB to tackle the grand challenge of post-quantum cryptography transition.

Recently, Anton Zeilinger, Professor Emeritus and Nobel Laureate in Physics, was promoted to Honorary Doctor at Linköping University. In connection with the ceremony, Professor Zeilinger also offered a technical lecture.

Quantum cryptography is considered a fully secure encryption method, but researchers from LiU and Stockholm University have discovered that this is not always the case.

The experiment of the century is to be repeated, but this time using people as random number generators and at the same time in many places around the world. It will now be decided once and for all whether Albert Einstein or Niels Bohr was right.

Listen to Professor Jan-Åke Larssons talk at the Cavendish Quantum Information Seminar Series, on what gives advantages to quantum algorithms.

Jan-Åke Larsson, professor of information coding at LiU, is part of the research group that proved that what Albert Einstein dismissed as ‘spooky action at a distance’ actually exists. “This is the experiment of the century,” he says.

Recently, a full-day seminar on AI and Security was held at Linköping University. The seminar was organized by SWECA in collaboration with Linköping University, the County Administrative Board of Östergötland, and The Swedish Police Authority.

The Swedish astronaut Marcus Wandt and the Austrian quantum physicist and Nobel laureate Anton Zeilinger have been appointed honorary doctors at the Faculty of Science and Engineering at Linköping University.

“We have seen increasing interest from students for quantum computers, quantum cryptography and photonics, says Jan-Åke Larsson, who has taken the initiative to a new profile within Applied Physics and Electrical Engineering.

3,283 people in Sweden, among them pupils at Katedralskolan in Linköping, participated in a huge experiment that challenged Einstein’s ideas about how the world works on the scale of quantum mechanics. The results have now been published in Nature.
