So now that we are getting closer to the presentation day for our senior projects, I am starting to condense and pick out all of the topics that I will discuss during my ten minutes of speech. I will include most of the topics that I have already introduced in my blog as well as some that are yet to come. Topics include: Quantum entanglement, quantum tunneling, uncertainty principle, Schrödinger's cat, etc... Down below I will include a more structured outline of what exactly I will be talking about and in what order they will be discussed in. Also, I am trying to think of a creative way to start my presentation up. So far, I'm thinking about starting it with a small demonstration but we will see. Anyways, here is my outline so far
1. Introduce Quantum Mechanics
- start on quantum entanglement
- entanglement activity
2. Uncertainty Principle
- Schrödinger's cat demonstration
- discuss the reasoning behind quantum superposition
- lead into the double-slit experiment
3. Double-Slit Experiment
- predetermined outcomes
- lead into parallel worlds
- many worlds theory
4. The future of quantum physics
- current plans (Hadron Collider)
- possibilities (quantum computing)
- broad concepts (quantum tunneling and black holes.)
5. Questions
6. Ending statement. Thank you
Ahhh, the cat. Please play the cartoon as you explain with no sound!
