Program:  14:00-14:40: S. De Bièvre (Laboratoire Paul Painlevé). De la surprenante mécanique quantique à la cryptographie quantique. Summary. The purpose of this presentation is to explain in non-technical terms how one can exploit some subtleties of quantum mechanics to ensure a secret, private and secure communication between two parties. 14:50-15:30: A. Rançon (Laboratoire PhLAM). Le qubit, une brève introduction. Résumé. This presentation will give a technical but elementary introduction to the properties of qubit: the difference with classical bits, quantum superpositions, incompatibility between quantum observables, etc. No prior knowledge of quantum mechanics is necessary to enjoy the presentation. 15:30-16:00: Scientific discussion and organization of future sessions.
