A community exploring the
quantum world at Waterloo

The University of Waterloo's #1 club for all things quantum. We host talks, run workshops, and build interactive experiments, open to everyone curious about the field.

Hydrogen Orbitals

An interactive 3D look at the real wave functions of the hydrogenic atom, drag to rotate, or watch them spin.

Upcoming events

Drop in for talks, demos, and discussions about quantum computing and physics. Newcomers welcome.

Nothing scheduled yet

We're putting together the fall term lineup: guest talks, workshops, and demos. Announcements go out on Discord first, so join there to hear about events as soon as they're booked.
