This session examines the full economic picture of nuclear power: 1. Characterize overnight construction, financing, and operating costs for nuclear ...
Can gravity and extra directions of space emerge from systems that naively lack them? Holography - the celebrated AdS/CFT correspondence - predicts that this can happen via one magic ingredient: entanglement, or strong quantum correlations. I will present in an accessible manner recent advances on this longstanding theoretical idea, using ...
