Israel Hernandez. Illinois Tech Abstract: One of the key challenges in dark matter detection lies in developing highly sensitive detectors capable of identifying low-energy depositions resulting from interactions between light dark matter and target materials. In this context, materials that support low-energy phonon excitations hold significant promise. Building on this, we investigate energy transport in […]

Due to unforeseen circumstances, our seminar speaker, Zach Newman, from Octave Photonics will not be able to attend this week. Instead, we will be hosting a discussion of the recent Microsoft Majorana 1 results. We will watch some videos from Microsoft and third party reviews, then critically discuss the impact of these results on the […]

John Gaebler Quantinuum This will be an in-person (Labriola 202) seminar and available via Zoom (https://mines.zoom.us/s/97076035397). Abstract: I will discuss the motivation for running random circuit sampling algorithms (RCS) on current quantum computers and present some recent RCS results from Quantinuum. I will also briefly introduce the basics of trapped-ion quantum computing architectures and challenges […]
In lieu of a Quantum Engineering Seminar this week, we will be hosting a casual beginning of semester social gathering. Join us for snacks and conversation about quantum or anything else!
