Protocol de criptografia quàntica per a la protecció de dades

Marina Garciapons Cava

Institut Manuel de Cabanyes – Vilanova i la Geltrú (2 bat)

Docent: Francesc Banyuls Llopis

The project aims to determine how we could protect our data whenever the current security is not enough. I investigated how a quantum cryptography protocol works, reproducing it experimentally in an ICFO lab. This cryptography provides greater security due to the properties of quantum physics.

Technique for calculating Hydric stress

Laura Hochadel

Escola Virolai – Barcelona (1 bat)

Docent: José Luis Touron Rivadulla

Our goal was to analyze the level of health of plants, using a technique called NDVI. We attached a camera with a red filter to a sounding balloon and programmed it to take pictures from a bird’s eye view and colour-indicating the results obtained from the NDVI calculation.

Analysing Type Ia Supernovae Redshifts for Dark Energy Quantification

HELENA VILLARES SANTIAGO

Institut Pompeu Fabra – Martorell (2 bat)
Docent: Francisco Pérez Garcia
 

This study aims to quantify the dark energy in the Universe from Hubble Space Telescope raw data. Measuring the effective magnitude for several type Ia Supernovae we demonstrated that there is some energy, whose essential nature remains unknown, that composes about 75% of the cosmos.

Quantum computing

AINA FERNÁNDEZ GONZÁLEZ


Institut Puig de la Creu – Castellar del Vallès (2 bat)

Docent: Rosa Maria Blasco Soriano

 
This project’s main objective is the evaluation and comprehension of quantum technologies, focusing on quantum computing. During the research, I discuss the current and future impact of quantum computing, as well as the deep study of its meaning and functioning.

Investigation of the method of obtaining information and image of a black hole and comparison with the theory of general relativity

MERITXELL TORRES CALVET

Escola Mare de Déu de la Salut – Sabadell (2 bat)
Docent: Joan Marin
 

The similarities and the differences between the two black hole’s photographs that have been taken thanks to the long-baseline interferometry method are argued in the General Relativity. Although in the images we can recognize the shadow of the black hole and the event horizon, we can also appreciate the dissimilarity of their ring determined by the mass.

L'efecte de lA radioactivitat en els éssers vius

EFRAN GARCÍA RODRÍGUEZ

Sagrada Familia – Gavà (2 bat)

Docent: Daniel Parcerisas Brossa

 

We tried to demonstrate if the radioactivity has a negative effect on living being. To do it, I grew beans with different amounts of radiation. We saw various negative effects, but we couldn’t relate to radioactivity, as they appeared in all the plants, regardless of the amount of radiation

L'observació als patrons

FANGXIN CHEN

Institut Fort Pius – Barcelona (2 bat)
Docent: Pau Senra
In this project, we pretend to analyze different diffraction’s pattern of splits or obstacles, for example a human hair or a metallic wire, and distinct sources of laser (in our case, green and red laser). Based on the observations, we study about looking at the patterns and know about the changes of the pattern caused by our presence.

Direct Astronomical Observation vs. Instrumental Astronomical Observation

UNAI CUESTA AYORA

Santo Angel – Gavà (2 bat)

Docent: Sonia Tarancón

 
The objective of this project is to verify if there are relevant differences between direct observation and instrumental observation. To verify this, two light curves have been created and compared to each other to find errors. The results indicate that there are indeed differences, with a significant margin of error.

Investigating how exposure to light will affect the degradation of a bag polymer

LAIA ROJAS LÓPEZ, ELIDA MARTÍNEZ-GIL VIZCAINO

St Peter’s School – Barcelona (4 ESO)

Docent: Nuria Garcia Flor

The effect of UV light (395 nm, 10 W and 30W) in the degradation of a bag polymer was investigated using a spectrophotometer to measure the absorbance of the aqueous solution in which the polymer was immersed. Results showed the migration of polymer substances into the surrounding solution increased depending on the exposure time and the power of the light used.

Using the diffraction of a laser beam to quantify the concentration of glucose of an unknown solution

HAN JIN

St Peter’s School – Barcelona (4 ESO)

Docent: Nuria Garcia Flor

Trigonometry calculations allowed to establish the change in the angle of diffraction of a beam of light from a laser pointer due to an increase in the concentration (0-30%) of glucose in a solution (n=3). The correlation found was then used to quantify the concentration of glucose of an unknown sample.
