DescriptionBack to top 

QuantumCamp™ is a one week journey through this strange and beautiful world. It is a journey through nothing less than every atom in our universe!
We begin with Dmitri Mendeleev's periodic table of the elements. We move from Albert Einstein's idea of quantization and end up seeing the hydrogen spectrum while contemplating the ideas of Niels Bohr and Werner Heisenberg.
It is a hands-on laboratory based exploration. Every single student sets up and carries out experiments which reveal the quantum mechanics of atoms.
We witness the explosive beauty and inner order of the elements which begs for deeper investigation. We dive in and immerse ourselves in a world where quantum logic guides us to a deeper understanding of the universe.
Let us briefly explain what it means to discover the quantum foundation of our universe.
There are a set of rules which help to explain how all of the matter in the universe behaves. These rules make up what we call quantum mechanics or quantum physics. They govern the behavior of all of the particles inside every atom. Therefore, they govern the behavior of all matter in the universe.
At QuantumCamp™, we will simply take a look at these rules and get a deep core level understanding of our universe. How do we take on such a task? Quite simply, actually.
