Please join us for our seminar on Tuesday, July 9 at 2pm with Himadri Shekhar Dhar! Join on Zoom: https://lnkd.in/gM49DUmx Meeting ID: 694 4332 7772 Passcode: 996727 Seminar Title: Theoretical approaches to study quantum properties of collective states in a cavity Seminar Abstract: The interaction of collective states of spins or atoms with a quantum resonator has been harnessed to build different platforms for quantum information processing ranging from quantum computing and simulation to metrology. In this talk, we look at a few theoretical and computational approaches to study the dynamics of these systems. First, we describe how powerful tensor-network methods can be used to investigate the transfer of quantum information from the states of a cavity to the collective states of an ensemble of qubits or spins. Secondly, we show how quantum sensing of rotational properties of collective states of an atomic superfluid can be enhanced by exploiting the tools of quantum optomechanics. Short biography: Himadri Shekhar Dhar is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Physics, Indian Institute of Technology Bombay, India since February 2021. Prior to Mumbai, he was a research assistant at Imperial College London, United Kingdom (2019-2021) and a Lise-Meitner fellow at the Institute for Theoretical Physics, Vienna University of Technology (TU Wien), Austria (2016-2018). He finished his PhD in 2015 from the School of Physical Sciences, Jawaharlal Nehru University, New Delhi, India and till 2016 was a postdoctoral fellow in Harish-Chandra Research Institute, Prayagraj, India. His research focus has been to unravel the physical nature of correlations that connect the various parts of complex and exquisite quantum systems, primarily from the perspective of theoretical quantum information and computing, optics and many-body physics. In recent years, he has been working on quantum dynamics and quantum information protocols in collective states, quantum light-matter interaction and hybrid systems, aiming at developing and optimising quantum technology.

Please take a moment to share your thoughts, quantum women!
Alongside Shohini Ghose I am starting a Women in Quantum interview series to highlight perceptions, accomplishments, challenges, and thoughts on the future of quantum technology. In particular I am interested in hearing the thoughts of under-represented groups such as racial minorities, members of the queer community, and people with a disability. Why I think this is important: It is critical to ensure that quantum technology develops in a ethically sustainable way and improves, not worsens, global inequality and access to resources. Building and supporting a diverse workforce is the key to doing it - and the first step is listening to people and their experiences. If you're interested and would like to participate, please fill out this Google form.

Amazing students doing amazing things!
I am thrilled to share my experience at the 2024 Quantum BC Research Fair hosted by UBC. It was an incredible opportunity to delve into the groundbreaking advancements in quantum computing alongside fellow researchers from UBC, SFU, and UVic, and to engage with leading industry professionals. I had the privilege of presenting my thesis on the design and analysis of photodiode circuits at cryogenic temperatures for controlling superconducting qubits. It was an enriching experience to discuss my work and connect with other students within our research group. I am proud to announce that I secured 1st place in the competition, and I want to extend heartfelt congratulations to my lab mates, and friends, Edward Leung, and Daniel Julien-Neitzert for their excellent presentation on the cryogenic response of integrated Germanium photodiodes and for clinching 2nd place with their impressive posters. Additionally, I would also like to thank Edward, Daniel, and Hang Zou for their invaluable help and patience throughout my thesis, and for allowing me to contribute to their projects as well. I would also like to express my deep gratitude to Prof. Lukas Chrostowski, Prof. Sudip Shekhar, Prof. Jeff Young, and especially my supervisor, Prof. Joe Salfi, for their invaluable mentorship and support throughout my project, as well as for providing me with the opportunity. For those interested in exploring more about my project, I invite you to read my thesis published at: https://lnkd.in/gTXdgAKi. Finally, thank you to the organizers and keynote speakers for hosting this wonderful event!

Don't miss your chance to attend this amazing workshop coming up at the end of May at The University of British Columbia!
Join us at The University of British Columbia as we work with The Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada (NSERC) CREATE Quantum BC program to offer training on the design, fabrication, and testing of #quantum silicon photonic circuits used in quantum computer hardware. Participants will learn how to design, simulate, fabricate, and test their own quantum silicon photonic circuits. Students will gain an understanding of the fundamentals of quantum optics and how photonics can be used for quantum computing, and the types of problems that can be solved on photonic-based processors, particularly with Xanadu’s cloud-accessed quantum processor. https://loom.ly/sNG75no Siemens Stewart Blusson Quantum Matter Institute (Blusson QMI)
