Puri Paves New Path in Quantum Exploration
Her research bridges quantum optics and quantum information theory, enabling her to develop tailored quantum error correction codes by understanding specific noise in hardware, which leads to more efficient quantum systems and revives interest in customized error correction approaches in the field.
RQS Career Connections: Quantum Circuits, Inc.
James Teoh will speak about his experience as a Quantum Engineer at Quantum Circuits Inc., and what it is like to be a physicist in quantum industry in the field of superconducting circuits.
Simulating Meson Scattering on Spin Quantum Simulators
Studying high-energy collisions of composite particles, such as hadrons and nuclei, is an outstanding goal for quantum simulators. However, the preparation of hadronic wave packets has posed a significant challenge, due to the complexity of hadrons and the precise structure of wave packets. This has limited demonstrations of hadron scattering on quantum simulators to date. Observations of confinement and composite excitations in quantum spin systems have opened up the possibility to explore scattering dynamics in spin models.
Gorshkov Wins IEEE Photonics Society Quantum Electronics Award
He was recognized for his pioneering contributions to the understanding, design and control of interacting quantum systems.
RQS Researchers Devise Novel Framework to Advance Quantum Error Correction
They are developing a new concept built on quantum spherical codes that could make the notoriously fragile information in a photon-based quantum computer less susceptible to errors.
Near-optimal simulation of quantum field theory
Ab initio simulations of the Standard Model will require thousands of qubits and millions of gates. Developing efficient quantum simulation algorithms for such settings, which will only be feasible in the era of fault-tolerant quantum computing, necessitates principles entirely different from those used in the near term.
Quantum Computing Enters the Atomic Realm (Optics & Photonics News)
RQS Co-PI and co-lead for Research Challenge 2 Jeff Thompson was featured in Optics & Photonics for his work on utilizing individual atoms and ions to develop more advanced quantum computing systems and enhance the stability and scalability of quantum computers.
Alicia Kollár and Graduate Student Martin Ritter Represent RQS at Congressional Showcase
The showcase highlighted RQS' contributions to the vast scope of today’s growing quantum ecosystem through demonstrations of foundational scientific research, cutting-edge technology, and educational programs.
Seed Grant Writing Workshop
Applying for an RQS seed grant? This workshop will share some tips and best practices for grant writing, with insight from the UMD research and development office's Amanda Dykema and former RQS seed grant recipient Alaina Green (JQI). Bring your idea or draft for a proposal; after the presentation, there will be time to work on your proposal and get feedback.
The RQS Annual Workshop will also feature a seed grant session where you can continue to refine your proposal.
