The 3rd young researchers' workshop of the Extreme Universe Collaboration was held at Grand Park Otaru, Otaru, Hokkaido, Japan, with 76 participants, who exchanged their latest research results and had discussions on quantum information, elementary particle physics, cosmology, and condensed matter physics.
We will have the 1st public ExU Online Colloquium “Public ExU Colloquium” on October 16th (Wed) 13:00 (JST). The speaker is Prof. Koji Terashi (University of Tokyo). For details, please refer to the poster. If you have not registered yet, please register at our online event website at least three days prior to the colloquium. (It is not necessary to register again if you have done it already.)
Head Investigator of Extreme Universe Prof. Takayanagi was invited to the Infosys-ICTS Chandrasekhar Lectures this month at the ICTS Institute in India, where he gave a three-session lecture entitled Entanglement and emergence of gravitational spacetime. https://www.icts.res.in/lectures/spacetime
An interview with him on that occasion is published below:
