100 researchers from 20 countries into Quantum Mechanics are holding a workshop in Cartagena
Between Monday and Wednesday, the second biannual edition of this workshop will be held in the Cartagena Polytechnic University (UPCT).

The researches are recognised experts in the technology and the heading for this year’s workshop is ‘New Trends in Complex Quantum Systems’ which will cover Quantum Thermodynamics, Rydberg Atoms, and Quantum Biology and Technology among others.
The applied physicist and the man responsible for the workshop, Javier Prior, said ‘The title of the conference defines its character and we will discuss the advances over the last two years, and these workshops stimulate our lines of investigation’.
‘It is estimated in the European union two thirds of GDP in developed countries is based on technologies related to quantum physics. If Spain wants to be competitive, we must incorporate this technology which covers things as common as nanotechnology, which has brought us semiconductors’
Javier Prior gave an example how biotechnology has led to solar cells
‘In biotechnology, to understand the role of quantum physics during photosynthesis has allowed us to develop solar cells which use artificial molecules such as the J-aggregates which are more efficient. Photonics, which covers all the developed technology for lasers and for the development of advances materials which new properties which we then use in new applications’.
‘Countries with a lower population than Spain, such as Israel, Holland, Singapore among others, have extended their interest into this technology and their economies are now more competitive than ours’, said Prior.
