Quantum Drawing exhibit

This exhibit (in french, sorry) displays various projects made in collaboration with the students of the DSA de design d’illustration scientifique of Ecole Estienne. It displays drawings of Solid State Physicists from the Laboratoire de Physique des Solides, posters and pop-ups about great quantum discoveries, postcards about basic quantum effects, and even a cartoon about the Schrödinger Equation !

We designed this 10-panel exhibition for anyone to print and use. It stages superconductivity, starting from its most obvious form, levitation, to progressively evolve towards staggered or artistic stagings, to finish on futuristic visions explored with designers. Do not hesitate to use it, just download it!

Janet, physicist and Margaux, illustrator, collaborated to create these quantum postcards. On each postcard, they imagined how the stars of quantum physics would be if they were victims of her own discoveries! The result, funny and offbeat, is at your disposal, in different formats easy to download and print.

Chloe, a science illustrator, spent a few weeks in our lab talking to physicists. She interviewed them and then illustrated their quotes about their daily lives, their motivations, their life as researchers. Here are these drawings, made with felt. She also illustrated, this time in black and white by computer, their scientific subject. Discover Mark-Oliver, a theorist who works on graphene, Lorène, PhD student specializing in soap bubbles, and Fabrice, expert teacher-researcher of quantum magnetism. And do not hesitate to use these productions, available in many formats (images, postcards, booklets …).

This work has been done during the diploma of Chloé Passavant of DSAA de Design d’Illustration Scientifique of école Estienne in collaboration with our team. It has been led at the Solid State Physics Laboratory with Fabrice Bert, Lorène Champougny and Mark-Oliver Goerbig.

Design students have developed a variety of interfaces that employ spatialized sound to facilitate gaining a better understanding of some of the invisible phenomena of physics. The eight speaker setup and interfaces allowed people to explore and listen to representations of the invisible phenomena; spatialized sound means that one can hear different sound’s location and movement, coming from and shifting to different perceived positions. This work was undertaken in the sound studio of ENSCI-Les Ateliers with Roland Cahen in collaboration with J. Bobroff (LPS, Orsay).

Participating students : Annelise Légaré (Sur l’onde); Paul Couderc (Quantum Symphonia); Matéo Garcia (Entendre la forme d’onde); Antoine Goupille (les bruits du courant); Jean-Baptiste Demay (WANTED). Project led in 2014 by Roland Cahen (ENSCI-Les Ateliers) in collaboration with J. Bobroff (LPS, Orsay).

An exhibit about the Quantum Design project to give a new look about quantum physics through a collaboration between our group and the ENSCI-Les ateliers design school. Aimed at Science Museums or highschools, it links surprising pictures and explanations. QR codes are used to relate the contents to online videos and animations using a smartphone.

This exhibit was designed by the studio Millimètre, in collaboration with our team thanks to the support of the labex PALM. This work benefited from the support of the Chair « La Physique Autrement » led by Fondation Paris-Sud and sponsored by Air Liquide.

Students in scientific illustration have attempted, in collaboration with physicists, to stage physics equations. Each group of students used an original graphic form: the pop-up book, the poetic animation, the comic strip, and the animated gif. Discover and use these productions to understand and stage these fundamental equations.
