SUMMARY:Seminar featuring Professor Richard Curry\, University of Mancheste
 r
CLASS:PUBLIC
DESCRIPTION:Summary \n\nThe ability to engineer the electrical\, optical an
 d magnetic\nproperties of advanced materials on the nanoscale is of increa
 sing\nimportance to the development of future technologies. One approach t
 o\nachieving this is through impurity doping\, with increased control over
 \nthe spatial resolution and isotopic purity enabled by the development\no
 f dedicated tools. In this talk the 'P-NAME' tool will be described\,\nand
  the underlying principle surrounding its application for the\ndevelopment
  of doped systems for quantum technologies including qubits\npresented. co
 nt.\n

SUMMARY:Coherent Parallelization of Universal Classical Computation
CLASS:PUBLIC
DESCRIPTION:Summary \n\nPreviously\, higher-order Hamiltonians (HoH) had be
 en shown to offer an\nadvantage in both metrology and quantum energy stora
 ge. In this work\,\nwe axiomatize a model of computation that allows us to
  consider such\nHamiltonians for the purposes of computation. From this ax
 iomatic\nmodel\, we formally prove that an HoH-based algorithm can gain up
  to a\nquadratic speed-up (in the size of the input) over classical\nseque
 ntial algorithms—for any possible classical computation. We\nshow how ou
 r axiomatic model is grounded in the same physics as that\nused in HoH-bas
 ed quantum advantage for metrology and battery\ncharging. Thus we argue th
 at any advance in implementing HoH-based\nquantum advantage in those scena
 rios can be co-opted for the purpose\nof speeding up computation. \n\nQNC

SUMMARY:Entangled: The Series - QUANTUM + Pop Culture
CLASS:PUBLIC
DESCRIPTION:Summary \n\n“Quantum physics” has taken its position with 
 “rocket science”\nin pop culture as a shorthand for frighteningly comp
 licated science.\nQuantum physics has also taken on a sort of magical conn
 otation in\nfiction\, with features like entanglement\, superposition\, an
 d\ntunneling\, spurring imagination. But where does the science draw the\n
 line? How much is joyful speculation\, and how much is disregard for\nreal
 ity? And if it’s always seen as either magical or scary\, how\ndoes that
  affect the perception of quantum science?\n
