The United Nations has proclaimed 2025 as the International Year of Quantum Science and Technoloygy (IYQ). This year-long, worldwide initiative will celebrate the contributions of quantum science to technological progress over the past century, raise global awareness of its importance to sustainable development in the 21st century, and ensure that all nations have access to quantum education and opportunies.
This talk “Quantum Physics: Path from Mysteries to Reality?” that I gave on 6/13/2024 at the Holmdel Library in Holmdel, New Jersey at the former Bell Labs building (new called Bell Works) can be considered as part of that celebration marking the contributions of Quantum Physics to the world. Bell Labs was the site where several great discoveries related to Quantum Physics were discovered in the 20th century that helped to revolutionize the world.

An earlier version of this talk was given by me on 12/8/2022 at the INK Fellowship. For a while it was sometimes mentioned that the 12/8/2022 talk was not recorded. It was recorded, but the recording was not widely presented until now. This recording can be summarized by various comments in the most recent 6/13/2024 talk. The 12/8/2022 recording is presented now mostly for historical purposes.
