Quantum & Space Day on October 7, 2025 (3:00 p.m. to 5:30 p.m.)
Ulm’s quantum year “quant.ulm.2025,” under the patronage of Mayor Martin Ansbacher, culminates in the “Ulm Quantum Festival” from October 6 to 12. The event at the Stadthaus (city hall) offers a broad program focusing on the current state of research into microparticles. An art exhibition and a concert approaching quantum physics from a different perspective round out the program.
Admission to both events is free – only tickets are required for the concert on Saturday.
HIU researchers will also be participating: The DLR research group led by Prof. Dr. Birger Horstmann will also be participating in Quantum & Space Day. The research group aims to raise awareness among the public about the important role quantum processes play in batteries.
Information at a glance:
The DLR Quantum & Space Day will take place as part of the Quantum Week/Quantum Festival at the Ulm City Hall. The event is open to the public from 3 p.m. to 5:30 p.m. It will feature lectures, an interview with an ESA astronaut, as well as hands-on experiments and discussions with scientists from the Institute of Quantum Technologies. This will provide a family-friendly and diverse program focused on quantum physics and space.
