excited to present native two-qubit quantum gates beyond cross-resonance in fixed-coupling transmon processors. we realize high fidelity native iswap/bswap/swap/sqrt(iswap)/B gates with the help of frame tracking, all fully implementable in Qiskit! arxiv.org/abs/2310.12146

Our paper presenting our scheme and experiments appeared on the arXiv this evening: arxiv.org/abs/2312.16166 6/

The power outage at UC Berkeley killed this pressure gauge display of an Oxford triton fridge. I have tried replacing the fuse and it still shows a blank black screen. Does anyone has experience fixing it?

Spin Displacement + Virtual Z = efficient Qudit control ! Liz Champion, Zihao Wang and Ray Parker designed a transmon chip and demonstrated coherent control & readout of up to 8 states. We like to think of the system as an effective spin-7/2 arxiv.org/abs/2405.15857

Our group's first experimental preprint is online: arxiv.org/abs/2405.15695 In it, we make a first foray into a new idea for bosonic control developed with Baptiste Royer which we call "matrix element modification". 🧵 1/N

Did you know that a liquid crystal can generate entangled photons? Well, here you are: nature.com/articles/s4158…

🚨🚨Some colleagues recently posted a report about potential applications of quantum computers at LANL arxiv.org/abs/2406.06625 We are asking the QIS community’s feedback and critiques on the report and would appreciate your input 🙏. Please send any feedback to [email protected]

We are hiring at @naturephysics! If you have expertise in condensed matter, quantum stuff (broadly defined) or optics/photonics, then we would love to hear from you. Closing date Aug 9th. Feel free to DM or email me if you have any questions. nature.com/naturecareers/…

Vamos!!!!

Never give up!!! Idemooo!!

Suspect Identity Sought In reference to the assault of a 74-year-old male, who later died at an area hospital, investigators need your help identifying the suspect seen in these photos. Anyone with information on the identity of this suspect is urged to contact investigators
