Prof Ketterle at IYQ Summit

Location:Anaheim Convention Center, 160 (Level 1)

Wolfgang Ketterle

Professor Ketterle spoke at the International Year of Quantum Summit in the Milestones section of the program. This was a free public family-friendly event taking place at the Grove of Anaheim on the weekend before the Global Physics Summit. He was on stage explaining Bose-Einstein condensation during the performance of Quantum Journeys which included an...

CUA Seminar: Tilman Pfau – Novel qubits for the neutral atom platform

Location:MIT 4-270

Tilman Pfau, 5th Institute of Physics, University of Stuttgart

In the first part of the talk, I will discuss our endeavor to realize a gate-based quantum computer involving a novel fine-structure qubit encoded in the metastable 3P0 and 3P2 states of strontium [1]. We have recently implemented this qubit for the first time and measured its coherence in a magic optical tweezer, which is...
