I’m happy to say that our team at IBM Quantum and research collaborators at UC Berkeley have demonstrated evidence of quantum computers’ utility in experiments evaluating quantum and classical methods for a series of increasingly challenging simulation problems.
Was great to see everyone and share my experience transitioning from grad school to industry in #QuantumComputing! Thanks AQT @LBNLcs@BerkeleyPhysics for the great preparation for the quantum workforce, hope to pay it back and forward!
excited to share our work on how to detect coherent nonmarkovian errors in transmon quantum processors. by mitigating off-resonant errors we demonstrate a cross-resonance gate with 0.12% epg. many thanks to @EmilyPritchet18, david, @qubitsRcool, and seth. https://t.co/u0LNSPkNsl
Alexei was a kind, thoughtful, and fun person. I have many fond memories chatting with him around Berkeley. My deepest condolences, @amarchenkova, his presence in the quantum community will be deeply missed.
I’m excited to share that our work demonstrating high-fidelity entangling gates for superconducting qutrits (https://t.co/y8VZBt0PH0) was recently published in @NatureComms and has been chosen as an editor’s highlight (https://t.co/Itvywnbipa). Here’s a quick thread 🧵about it!
Super excited to share a preprint! At @Caltech, we build the first closed-loop brain-machine (#BMI) interface that is able to decode internal speech 💭. Check it out here: https://t.co/8bNDtGA6w2
Want to understand why the physics Nobel awarded today is such a big deal?
Alain Aspect, John F. Clauser and Anton Zeilinger were awarded the Nobel prize today for groundbreaking work in quantum technologies (1/?)
A new method for weakly monitoring a quantum state uses a neural network to learn and adapt to detector effects that typically prevent measurements of rapidly changing states. Read https://t.co/D14qgKyCPN #PRXqst@GerwinKoolstra@stevenson_noah_ @justdressel @rnaik24quantum
What sets the T1 times of the best transmons on sapphire? Bulk dielectric loss in the substrate is likely one of the largest remaining losses: https://t.co/xy4tXIjno7
Preprint alert 🚨 Researchers at the Advanced Quantum Testbed (AQT) @BerkeleyLab in collab w/ @KeysightQ report results of engineering high-fidelity qutrit entangling gates for ⚛️ superconducting hardware. cc. @NoahGossQuantum et al. https://t.co/4npBjziAOo

Direct parity measurements can be used to continuously correct quantum errors. We demonstrated this in a circuit QED architecture and implemented a three-qubit continuous bit-flip protocol. Work from #qnl at UC Berkeley.

@v_sivak of @Yale_QI presents beyond break-even error correction with GKP codes at #apsmarch. This means that quantum error correction has definitively done its job: the logical error rate is 1.4 times *longer* than the bare physical error rate. A first AFAWK for a quantum code!
