Former (and recent) ITAMP Fellow publishes a book about “quantum steampunk”

Recent ITAMP Fellow Nicole Yunger Halpern is publishing a book for the general public about her research: Quantum Steampunk: The Physics of Yesterday’s Tomorrow, coming out in March 2022. Steampunk is an artistic and literary genre that features futuristic technologies in Victorian settings. This genre is coming to life in a growing field that combines quantum information science, which underlies cutting-edge technologies, with thermodynamics, the Victorian science of energy. Quantum Steampunk explores this intersection’s background, landscape, and opportunities.
