Following the 2008 discovery of the first images of Jupiter-like planets outside our Solar System, scientists have been pushing the technical boundaries toward imaging Earth-like planets. In collaboration with Dr. Christian Marois, a new generation of highly efficient coronagraphs (blocking the star but not planet light) has been invented, providing…

Our group periodically visits those schools of Armenia that are far from Yerevan and these schools do not have a physics laboratory so that children can do different experiments and understand the lessons well. In our practice, there was such a case that one student, seeing us and our experiments,…

Nada Ikken is addressing the urgent issue of civilians becoming trapped during earthquakes by proposing a quantum optimization approach to enhance search and rescue efforts. The project aims to leverage quantum computing to improve efficiency and address complex challenges in various aspects of daily life, including logistics and data analysis,…
