Quantum nerds trapping ions at MIT. Very serious. Tweets do not reflect the views of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. https://nitter.gq/t.co/kQZux0KkUx

Let's be clear: #BlackLivesMatter, and they matter a hell of a lot more than high-impact papers or babysitting our lasers. We encourage our friends and colleagues to participate in the #Strike4BlackLives this Wednesday.

Check out our new publication exploring quantum information processing applications within the metastable manifolds of 40Ca+ ions (@kyledebry et al.) in @PhysRevLett: journals.aps.org/prl/pdf/10.…
With the sequence we developed, we were able to correctly distinguish these non-orthogonal rotations in a *single* ternary (qutrit) measurement of our ion with over 99% accuracy!
If you've made it this far, you should probably click here to read the actual paper: journals.aps.org/prl/pdf/10.…

#134: Noisy dynamical systems evolve error correcting codes and modularity @trevormccrt1 @FieteGroup
"Noise punishes connectivity because errors can propagate further and faster in more densely connected networks."

Now out in Applied Physics Letters from CQE lead authors X. Shi (grad student), S.L. Todaro (postdoc), MIT-CQE member Colin D. Bruzewicz, John Chiaverini, Isaac L. Chuang and co-authors ” Ablation loading of barium ions into a surface-electrode trap”

Jim Hartle passed away. He wrote a wonderful book that helped me learn general relativity
As a 22 year old grad student, I spent 6 months at the Institute for Theoretical Physics (ITP) at UCSB, where Hartle was the Director. I was intimidated by him: he was the Director!
I just learned that Jim Hartle unfortunately passed away. You can learn more about him here web.physics.ucsb.edu/~hartle…
He visited us a few times in Leuven and I remember him being a very pleasant and friendly person to talk to.

Happy to finally discuss two recent projects in fundamental quantum algorithms out now on arXiv, the first from here @MIT and the second with collaborators at NTT BRL in Japan! arxiv.org/abs/2304.14392 and arxiv.org/abs/2304.14383 (1/9).

Is it *really* feasible that our intelligence was created by evolution alone?
In my latest preprint with @FieteGroup, @MitQuanta, @iaifi_news, I take a little, academia-sized chip out of this question.

Excited for a return to in-person DAMOP! Come say hi to us!
We’ve got talks from @susanna_todaro and @kyledebry Wednesday morning in H09, and a poster by Jasmine Sinanan-Singh tomorrow afternoon in F01

The future of ions is omg! arxiv.org/abs/2109.01272
Congrats to @BobNiffenegger, a former post-doc from the Lincoln side of the group, who has moved a great distance to open his own group
I am excited to announce that I will be joining the faculty at @UMassAmherst this fall as an Assistant Professor in ECE and will be starting a trapped ion quantum computing lab in their new Physical Sciences Building!
