Breakthrough in Electron Spin Control Brings Quantum Computers Closer to Reality

Submitted by Shahram13 on Fri, 05/03/2010 - 15:47.

Researchers from two National Science Foundation (NSF)-funded Materials Research Science and Engineering Centers at Princeton University and the University of California, Santa Barbara made a significant breakthrough in the worldwide pursuit of quantum computing. They engineered a method to control the spin of a single electron within a magnetic field without disturbing other nearby electrons.

Submitted by Jmencisom on Tue, 16/02/2010 - 08:55.

Application deadline: 

Wednesday, April 14, 2010

The Vienna Doctoral Program on Complex Quantum Systems opens the new call for application. New graduate students may be accepted to start in the program with October 2010.

The Vienna doctoral program on Complex Quantum Systems aims at providing young researchers with a comprehensive view of experimental and theoretical quantum physics. It puts a strong emphasis on quantum optics and quantum information in systems as various as photons, neutrons, mesons, atoms, molecules and solids.

Seeing the Quantum in Chemistry

Submitted by JMiszczak on Fri, 12/02/2010 - 07:35.

Physicists at [http://jila.colorado.edu/ JILA] have for the first time observed chemical reactions near absolute zero, demonstrating that chemistry is possible at ultralow temperatures and that reaction rates can be controlled using quantum mechanics, the peculiar rules of submicroscopic physics.

PhD positions - Quantum Many-Body Systems Division (Prof. Bloch)

Submitted by Jmencisom on Fri, 29/01/2010 - 08:32.

Application deadline: 

Saturday, January 30, 2010

The Quantum Many-Body Systems Division (Prof. Bloch) at the Max-Planck-Institute of Quantum Optics is seeking applicants for PhD positions within the group.

Google claims to have demonstrated quantum computer image search

Submitted by Burgarth on Mon, 14/12/2009 - 14:17.

From the blog: [...] Today, at the Neural Information Processing Systems conference (NIPS 2009), we show the progress we have made. We demonstrate a detector that has learned to spot cars by looking at example pictures. It was trained with adiabatic quantum optimization using a D-Wave C4 Chimera chip. There are still many open questions but in our experiments we observed that this detector performs better than those we had trained using classical solvers running on the computers we have in our data centers today.
