Presentation materials
I will present an overview of the ways that some AMO researchers working in quantum information find connections to nuclear physics, as well as a wish list from the AMO side.
Laser-based measurement and control of atomic and molecular states form the foundation of modern quantum technology and provide deep insights into fundamental physics. In this talk, I'll present our work in JILA on quantum-state-resolved thorium-229 nuclear laser spectroscopy using a coherent frequency comb in the vacuum-ultraviolet. I will also discuss our recent effort producing thin-film...
I will present quantum simulation of Deep Inelastic Scattering in (1+1)-dimensional QED.
Probing the non-equilibrium and real-time dynamics of composite particles, such as hadrons and nuclei, is an overarching goal for quantum simulators. Observations of confinement and composite excitations in spin systems have enabled the exploration of string-breaking and scattering dynamics with analog quantum simulators. In this talk, I will discuss our recent proposal for meson scattering...
How can quantum field theory advance superconducting device capabilities? How can superconducting devices probe quantum field theory? I will discuss these questions in the context of recent work on fluxonium, a superconducting quantum circuit used as a qubit. I will present a numerical framework for optimizing qubits, as well as a lattice field theory of physical devices. The discussion around...
