Basics
Name | César Augusto Vargas-García |
Label | Scientist |
Url | https://cavargar.github.io/ |
Summary | I am a Ph.D. in Electrical and Computer Engineering, based in Colombia. Currently, I serve as the principal investigator at AGROSAVIA, where I focus on leveraging data analysis, mathematical, and computational modeling to advance biological and agricultural systems. My research interests encompass a wide range of topics, including cell size control in bacteria, fission yeast, budding yeast, algae, and microbial communities in livestock. My expertise lies in integrating advanced computational approaches with biological research, aimed at solving interdisciplinary challenges in life sciences and agriculture. I am particularly passionate about applying mathematical and computational tools, such as artificial intelligence, to enhance our understanding and address complex questions in biology and agriculture. |

Publications
-
1916.03.20 Die Grundlage der allgemeinen Relativitätstheorie
Annalen der Physik
The publication of the theory of general relativity made him internationally famous. He was professor of physics at the universities of Zurich (1909–1911) and Prague (1911–1912), before he returned to ETH Zurich (1912–1914).
-
1905.06.30 Zur Elektrody/namik bewegter Körper
Annalen der Physik
It concerned an interpretation of the Michelson–Morley experiment and the properties of light and time. Special relativity incorporates the principle that the speed of light is the same for all inertial observers regardless of the state of motion of the source.
-
1905.03.18 Über einen die Erzeugung und Verwandlung des Lichtes betreffenden heuristischen Gesichtspunkt
Annalen der Physik
In the second paper, he applied the quantum theory to light to explain the photoelectric effect. In particular, he used the idea of light quanta (photons) to explain experimental results, but stressed the importance of the experimental results. The importance of his work on the photoelectric effect earned him the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1921.

Quantum Computing
Quantum computing is the use of quantum-mechanical phenomena such as superposition and entanglement to perform computation. Computers that perform quantum computations are known as quantum computers.
