Phys­ics: Uni­ver­sal struc­ture of ex­cep­tion­al points dis­covered in non-lin­ear sys­tems

Exceptional points are one of the phenomena of modern Physics. These are special points or locations at which the properties of matter, space or time change. In a new study, researchers from the Institute for Photonic Quantum Systems (PhoQS) at Paderborn University, in collaboration with researchers from the University of Arizona, have shown that ‘exceptional points’ in non-linear systems follow a universal geometric order – something that was…

Quantum Tech­no­lo­gies Eco­sys­tem: Pader­born Uni­ver­sity suc­cess­ful in European ‘QuantER­A’ call for pro­pos­als

With the aim of strengthening cross-border cooperation in quantum technologies, the European Commission has launched the 2025 “QuantERA” call for proposals. Supported by 34 funding organisations from 29 countries, the total funding package amounts to around 53 million euros. Out of more than 1,400 research teams and 287 applications, exactly 39 projects have been recommended for funding. With their project ‘Semidefinite Foundations for Quantum…
