We do not expect to have more #colloquiumehrenfestii until next fall. However, you can catch up with old talks at weblectures.leidenuniv.nl/Me…
- "Theoretical #physicists are boring and do no interact with people".
No way! Every year we meet all together to enjoy our annual #InstituteLorentz #outing organized by the secretaries and volunteers. This year, we enjoyed a fantastic #bbq on the #beach.
How to beat the heat? Our secretaries know the recipe:ice tea and fruits with water! We are always grateful! #hitte
Tomorrow, 24th June at 14:00, we have the last lecture by our 2019 #lorentzprofessor Seth Lloyd about Quantum Computing. Don't miss it!
Tom O'Brien, from @QuTech_news and PhD candidate within Carlo Beenakker's, is defending his #PhD #thesis "Applications of topology to Weyl semimetals and #QuantumComputing" tomorrow at 15:00.

PhD Ana Marta Pinho from the Institute of Theoretical Physics at @UniHeidelberg has been in charge today of one of the last #cosmologyseminars of this season in our Institute. Title: "Applications of Information Theory to Cosmology".
Don't forget you can watch the unboxing of the acquired #Horndeski's painting in the instagram account of our Institute at @lorentz_inst
Artist Gregory Horndeski didn't realize he had written a brilliant gravity paper, until a cosmologist asked for one of his paintings, 35 years later. Recently, LION acquired one of Horndeski's paintings (shown here with cosmologist Alessandra Silvestri) universiteitleiden.nl/en/new…
Tomorrow 18th June, Prof. Seth Lloyd from @MIT will continue his series of lectures at De Sitterzaal from 14:00-16:00. The topic: Building quantum computers. #lorentzprofessor #lorentzchair
A new acquisition for the institute! A piece of art by #GregoryHorndeski showing his most famous theory! #artandphysics

The IST:F group from @EC_Euclid has just won the #STARPrize Team Award in the annual #Euclid2019 meeting!
In our Institute, Dr. Matteo Martinelli (PostDoc in Alessandra Silvestri's group, soon moving to @ift_uam_csic ) has intensively worked within the IST:F ! Congratulations!
The IST:F, standing for InterScience working group Taskforce for Forecast, has been in charge of delivering validated pipelines destined to produce forecasts of #GalaxyClustering, #WeakLensing and the cross-correlation between the two.
The codes will be of great utility!
One of our students was interviewed for the Valencia TV @apunt_media, and we were broadcasted during our coffee break! #ValenciansalMon #Amsterdam

✈️Hui ens n'hem anat de viatge a Amsterdam amb @PepaRovira per a conéixer les històries de valencians i valencianes que s'han traslladat allí per amor, treball o per motius d'estudis.

Today, some scientists from our institute are participating in the annual #Euclid2019 meeting taking place in Helsinki!
Euclid is a space mission that aims to understand the origin of our accelerating universe and the nature of Dark Energy.
Today Dr. Kislon Voitchovsky from Durham University will give the Soft Matter Seminar, with a talk entitled:
" Self-assembled networks of ions and molecules at solid-liquid interfaces: organisation and dynamics"
The seminar will take place at 1:00 p.m., in the Casimir Room.
Paul Ginsparg is the final speaker of the #ColloquiumEhrenfestii of 2018!
Great honor to have the person behind @arxiv ! #openscience
