Mark Eriksson University of Wisconsin-Madison, Department of Physics Abstract: Quantum computing is based on the manipulation of two-level quantum systems, or qubits. In most approaches to quantum computing, qubits are as much as possible isolated from their environment in order to minimize the loss of qubit phase coherence. The use of nuclear spins as qubits is a […]

Dylan Yost Colorado State University, Department of Physics Abstract: Because of hydrogen’s simplicity, its energy levels are well-described by quantum electrodynamics (QED). This had made precision spectroscopy of hydrogen a favorite testbed for bound-stated QED. In addition, assuming the QED calculations are correct, one can use hydrogen spectroscopy to determine the Rydberg constant and the […]
