Programmable Quantum Simulators Meet Quantum Chemistry

In an interdisciplinary collaborative effort, a team of CUA members in the Yelin, Lukin, and Yao groups joined forces with computational quantum chemists in Martin Head-Gordon’s group (UC Berkeley) to develop a novel approach to simulate quantum properties of molecules and materials on state-of-the-art atomic quantum processors. Quantum chemistry is seen as a promising potential...

Ten Minute Talk:"Modular optics subsystems for AMO" by Felix Knollmann, MIT
Quantum metrology makes use of structured entanglement to perform measurements with greater precision than would be possible with only classically correlated particles. A paradigmatic example of such entanglement is spin squeezing, which is known to be dynamically generated by the celebrated one-axis-twisting model, corresponding to an all-to-all coupled Ising Hamiltonian. Motivated by recent advances in...
