Mines Quantum Week Keynote

McNeil Hall 1400 Maple St., Golden, CO, United States

Exploring Novel Quantum Phases with Trapped-Ion Quantum Simulation Dr. Zhexuan Gong, Colorado School of Mines, Dept. of Physics Trapped-ion based quantum simulators have a unique strength of simulating interacting spin models with tunable, long-range interactions. With individual control and measurement of the ion qubits, one can demonstrate a variety of novel quantum phases, both in […]

Mines/NREL Nexus Seed Presentation: Machine Learning-Informed Analysis of Remote Sensing Data to Identify Favorable Areas for Enhanced Geothermal Systems

Virtual Event CO, United States

Enhanced geothermal systems (EGS) are growing closer to wide-scale deployment, which brings a growing and timely need to develop a data-driven methodology for identifying priority locations for EGS deployment. Currently, a lack of research exists concerning the exploration of enhanced geothermal-related resources. On top of that, stress state modeling, which is essential for EGS success, […]
