“ […] Un importante passo in avanti verso i super computer quantistici del futuro, realizzato dai fisici dell'università australiana del Nuovo Galles del Sud a Sydney .”
La Repubblica
“ [...] Científicos australianos han construido el transistor más pequeño del mundo a partir de un único átomo, lo que supone un gran paso hacia el desarrollo de los futuros ordenadores cuánticos.”
El Mundo
“ [...]they had laid the groundwork for a futuristic quantum computer that might one day function in a nanoscale world and would be orders of magnitude smaller and quicker than today’s silicon-based machines.”
The New York Times

“A phenomenon is not a phenomenon until is a measured phenomenon…”
J. A. Wheeler
“Is there a moon in the sky if I do not look at?”
A. Einstein
There are the "objective properties", the “elements of physical reality” ?
A. Einstein

What is the wave function ?The wave function is a physical state of the
quantum system.
Mathematics dominates the structure of the theory: ["Wave function" | Ψ> tool to describe its essence or
reality?]

Quantum Mechanics:
“Lo scopo della nostra descrizione della natura non è il cercare l’essenza reale dei fenomeni ma soltanto l’indagare con la massima profondità possibile le relazioni tra i molteplici aspetti della nostra
esperienza.”“The purpose of our description of nature is not the search for the real essence of phenomena but only to investigate the maximum possible
depth relations between the manifold aspects of our experience.”
Niels Bohr (1934)
FAPP interpretation (For All Practical Purposes)Per tutti i fini pratici
