To celebrate the 100th anniversary of the establishment of Quantum Mechanics, first developed in 1925, the Italian Society for the History of Physics and Astronomy (Sisfa) will organize an international workshop titled: Towards a Quantum Culture: the Different Interpretations of Quantum Mechanics to be held at the Department of Physics of the University of Milano La Statale on 9-11 December 2025.

Topics: Proposals for oral communications should mainly address the history of quantum physics and cosmology, also in connection with the related areas of mathematics, chemistry, biology, neurobiology, information theory, epistemology and the history of science and culture. Studies focusing on historical instruments and experiments and documentary sources regarding the mentioned fields are also relevant to the purposes of the Workshop, as well as the applications of the history of physics and cosmology in science education and museum displays.

Thematic sessions will be related to the following historical contexts:

• Quantum Culture
• Different Interpretations of Quantum Mechanics
• Different Formulations of Quantum Mechanics
• Old Quantum Physics and Quantum Mechanics
• Quantum Mechanics and Quantum Relativistic Field Theory
• Quantum Gravity and Quantum Cosmology
• Quantum Biology and Quantum Neurobiology
• Quantum Information and Computation
• Quantum Logic

Fee: There will not be any conference fee.

Abstracts of oral communications should be submitted in English at Questo indirizzo email è protetto dagli spambots. È necessario abilitare JavaScript per vederlo.. It should not exceed 250 words and must not include bibliographic references.
