quantum information
From Inside HPC, July 23, 2020: The Department of Energy unveiled on July 23 a strategy for the development of a national quantum internet intended to bring “the United States to the forefront of the global quantum race and usher in a new era of communications.” Earlier this year, Argonne National Laboratory and the University of Chicago entangled photons across a 52-mile “quantum loop” in the Chicago suburbs, “successfully establishing one of the longest land-based quantum networks in the nation,” according to DOE. That network will be connected to Fermilab, establishing a three-node, 80-mile test bed.
The U.S. Department of Energy Office of Nuclear Physics is developing a strategy for Quantum Information Science (QIS) in the context of Nuclear Physics (NP). To facilitate this, Argonne National Laboratory’s Physics Division will host a DOE-supported workshop, Intersections Between Nuclear Physics and Quantum Information (NPQI 2018). All researchers with an interest in exploring synergies between quantum information science and nuclear physics are invited to attend. The workshop will be held Wednesday, March 28, through Friday, March 30, 2018, at…
