One of the major musts in this year is the French physicist Alain Aspect, who has been a candidate for the Nobel Prize in physics. Apect be held the Conference “The ghastly error of Einstein”, where will explain how two particles are linked by a very powerful quantum relationship regardless of the distance between them. In other words, it will show us why Eisntein was wrong.
For those interested and curious of Artificial Intelligence and its progress, they cannot go to the Conference “machines learning alone. The future of the A.I.”of the renowned us computer scientist and Professor at Harvard, Leslie Valiant. We understand how the progress of Artificial Intelligence is due in large part to machine learning, and what this implies about the prospects for the computer science in the future, its possibilities and risks.
Astronomy astronomy will be an important issue in the event with talks as “Of Chile to the universe, future observatories”, where you learn about the four new observatories that are being built in Chile and that will dazzle the world with their discoveries on the Universe. Through its characters, national and international scientists in charge of each of the projects, we will know: the set of telescopes of Cherenkov (CTA); the Giant Magellan Telescope (GMT); the telescope extremely large (ELT); and the great telescope for synoptic crawls (LSST).
Find a planet that can support life as we know it, is a yearning that round the imagination of any child, adult, philosopher or scientist. This is what deals with the Conference “Looking for life beyond Earth” that take place Nathalie Cabrol, planetary scientist and astrobiologist American. Cabrol will give us the advances that allow us to develop new discoveries that increase the possibilities of existence of other civilizations technologically advanced in the universe and life beyond the Solar System.
