TLDR
A wide range of quantum games and interactive tools have been employed by the quantum community in recent years as discussed by the authors , including Hello Quantum, Hello Qiskit, Particle in a Box, Psi and Delta, QPlayLearn, Virtual Lab by Quantum Flytrap, Quantum Odyssey, ScienceAtHome, and the Virtual Quantum Optics Laboratory.Abstract:
Abstract. We provide an extensive overview of a wide range of quantum games and interactive tools that have been employed by the quantum community in recent years. We present selected tools as described by their developers, including “Hello Quantum, Hello Qiskit, Particle in a Box, Psi and Delta, QPlayLearn, Virtual Lab by Quantum Flytrap, Quantum Odyssey, ScienceAtHome, and the Virtual Quantum Optics Laboratory.” In addition, we present events for quantum game development: hackathons, game jams, and semester projects. Furthermore, we discuss the Quantum Technologies Education for Everyone (QUTE4E) pilot project, which illustrates an effective integration of these interactive tools with quantum outreach and education activities. Finally, we aim at providing guidelines for incorporating quantum games and interactive tools in pedagogic materials to make quantum technologies more accessible for a wider population.read more

Democratization of quantum technologies
TL;DR: In this paper , the authors investigate the topic of democratization in the context of quantum computing, particularly quantum computing and argue that although the ongoing efforts in the democratization of QT are necessary steps towards the democratisation of this set of emerging technologies, they should not accept as sufficient to argue that QT is a democratized field.
Visualizing quantum mechanics in an interactive simulation – Virtual Lab by Quantum Flytrap
TL;DR: Virtual Lab by Quantum Flytrap as discussed by the authors is a no-code online laboratory of an optical table, presenting quantum phenomena interactively and intuitively, allowing users to place typical optical elements (such as beam splitters, polarizers, Faraday rotators, and detectors).

Observation of Bose-Einstein Condensation in a Dilute Atomic Vapor
TL;DR: A Bose-Einstein condensate was produced in a vapor of rubidium-87 atoms that was confined by magnetic fields and evaporatively cooled and exhibited a nonthermal, anisotropic velocity distribution expected of the minimum-energy quantum state of the magnetic trap in contrast to the isotropic, thermal velocity distribution observed in the broad uncondensed fraction.

Quantum cryptography
TL;DR: A protocol for coin-tossing by exchange of quantum messages is presented, which is secure against traditional kinds of cheating, even by an opponent with unlimited computing power, but ironically can be subverted by use of a still subtler quantum phenomenon, the Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen paradox.

Bose-Einstein condensation in a gas of sodium atoms
TL;DR: The striking signature of Bose condensation was the sudden appearance of a bimodal velocity distribution below the critical temperature of ~2µK.

Force concept inventory
TL;DR: In this paper, it has been established that commonsense beliefs about motion and force are incompatible with Newtonian concepts in most respects, and conventional physics instruction produces little change in these beliefs, and this result is independent of the instructor and the mode of instruction.

A systematic literature review of empirical evidence on computer games and serious games
TL;DR: The findings revealed that playing computer games is linked to a range of perceptual, cognitive, behavioural, affective and motivational impacts and outcomes, and the most frequently occurring outcomes and impacts were knowledge acquisition/content understanding and affective
