The international conference "Vienna Quantum Foundations Conference: Schrödinger Centenary" brings together experts from various fields of quantum information science.

New theoretical result proves that thermalization cannot occur arbitrarily fast: quantum mechanics imposes a minimum timescale set by the Planck constant, the Boltzmann constant, and the target temperature $T$.

Austria's highest scientific honor goes to Markus Aspelmeyer: the quantum physicist and Director of IQOQI-Vienna has been awarded the Wittgenstein Prize by the Austrian Science Fund (FWF).

On April 24, at this year’s Long Night of Research, IQOQI-Vienna demonstrated just how fascinating the world of quantum physics can be. Our scientists presented hands-on experiments and explained how the fundamental building blocks of nature behave.

How does knowledge emerge - and why does it change? IQOQI Vienna brings cutting-edge quantum research into a museum setting, offering visitors a unique glimpse into how science unfolds.

On this year’s World Quantum Day, IQOQI Vienna once again opens its doors to the public.

In 1925, Werner Heisenberg developed matrix mechanics, the first formulation of quantum theory, during his trip to the German island of Helgoland.

On November 6, around 800 guests came together at Vienna City Hall to celebrate 100 years of quantum theory – and Austria’s role as a driving force in global quantum research.

On October 31, 2025, in the Mirror Hall of the Primate’s Palace in Bratislava, Martin Venhart, President of the Slovak Academy of Sciences (SAS), conferred an honorary scientific degree of Doctor of Physical and Mathematical Sciences (DrSc. h. c.) on…

On October 10, 2025, students had the opportunity to experience the world of quantum research at the Austrian Academy of Sciences during the event ‘Quantastic! What’s happening in the quantum world?’
