[ICTP Director]

Dear All,

*You are most cordially invited to the 2023 Salam Distinguished Lectures 
Series by Professor Sandu Popescu, **from the University of Bristol. 
*The Lectures will take place at the ICTP in the Budinich Lecture Hall 
and will also be livestreamed from the ICTP website.
*
*
*Professor **Popescu will deliver three lectures on topics related to 
the fundamental aspects of quantum physics as follows:*

  * Wednesday 25 January 2023:  Lecture 1 @ 16:00 hrs CET: The smallest
    possible thermal machines and the foundations of thermodynamics
  * Thursday 26 January 2023: Lecture 2 @ 16:00 hrs CET : Quantum
    non-locality and beyond
  * Friday 27 January 2023: Lecture 3 @ 11:00 CET: Multiple-time states
    and the flow of time in quantum mechanics

Professor Popescu's main field of research centres on the conceptual and 
fundamental aspects of quantum physics. He is a pioneer of quantum 
information, best known for his work on entanglement and the associated 
phenomenon of non-locality, which are crucial for our current 
understanding of quantum theory. He has also worked on many other 
aspects of quantum theory, ranging from the very fundamental, to 
designing practical experiments (such as the first quantum teleportation 
experiment), to patentable commercial applications.
