Quantum Metrology

Quantum metrology is one of the pillars of quantum technologies. It shows how one can use quantum effects, such as entanglement and squeezing, to increase the precision of the measurements one can do. It also establishes the ultimate bounds, on precision that any measurement can achieve, e.g. through the Heisenberg uncertainty relations and the quantum speed limits. In this talk I will give an overview of these fundamental quantum effects and curiosities and show how they can be harnessed for useful goals.
