SUMMARY:MIDDLEWARE: THE QUANTUM COMPUTING DIFFERENTIATOR
DESCRIPTION:As COVID-19 rages on throughout the world\, more people are seeing the value quantum computing can provide once the technology matures. An integral piece of quantum computing’s success is the middleware bridging existing code and algorithms to the new logical circuitry being established that sits on top of the quantum circuits. This integration and abstraction will allow the technology to process complex algorithms to provide the outcomes the hardware enables. Middleware is more readily available because it is less of an investment\, and many middleware startups exist in the quantum computing space. As a result\, alliance and acquisition activity should heat up first in the middleware space as hardware and services vendors scoop up software assets to differentiate. \nJoin Stephanie Long and Geoff Woollacott for a discussion about the current middleware ecosystem for quantum computing and their predictions on how the space will evolve over the next five years. \nDon’t miss: \n\nHow COVID-19 has accelerated interest in quantum computing\nWhat the quantum computing landscape will look like in 2025\nKey middleware vendors and what types of moves make sense for M&A and alliance activity\n\n\nTBR webinars are held typically on Wednesdays at 1 p.m. ET and include a 15-minute Q&A session following the main presentation. Previous webinars can be viewed anytime on TBR’s Webinar Portal. \nFor additional information or to arrange a briefing with our analysts\, please contact TBR at webinars@tbri.com.

SUMMARY:Quantum resources: from mathematical foundations to operational characterisation
DESCRIPTION:Various properties of quantum systems are starting to find use in the development of practical quantum technologies\, elevating phenomena such as entanglement and coherence from mathematical curiosities to physical resources. The framework of quantum resource theories aims to understand these features in a unified fashion and establish methods to characterise them effectively. \nThe workshop Quantum resources: from mathematical foundations to operational characterisation is concerned with the theoretical investigation of quantum resources\, and in particular on bridging the gap between the abstract mathematical description of resource theories and the protocols for their practical exploitation. \nThe workshop will consist of invited talks by experts in various aspects of quantum resource theories as well as contributed talks\, poster sessions\, and extended discussion sessions.

SUMMARY:Discovery Talks: Quantum Parallel Worlds
DESCRIPTION:Quantum theory describes how our universe behaves at the smallest scales\, where atoms and their constituent particles interact\, and underpins almost all of modern physics. In this talk\, I will give a brief introduction to this hidden quantum world\, highlighting some crucial and surprising differences between it and our everyday experiences. One way to understand quantum behaviour is through the branching and merging of parallel worlds\, in which microscopic particles undergo different evolutions. This raises the question of whether parallel worlds exist at a larger scale\, in which different\, equally real\, copies of you live out their lives. \nPresented by Dr Tony Short\, School of Physics at the University of Bristol.

SUMMARY:Quantum Mechanics and the Future of Computing
DESCRIPTION:Quantum science could change the world! \nQuantum Computing and Engineering could transform medicine\, predict environmental disasters and pandemic outbursts such as COVID19. It could break encryption and revolutionise communications and artificial intelligence. Companies like IBM\, Microsoft and Google are racing to build reliable quantum computers. Leading economies such as the U.S.\, Russia and China are investing billions. \nAustralia and Israel are not staying behind and have also invested substantially into Quantum research. \nThe Technion – Israel Institute of Technology has recently raised $70M (AUD) towards its Quantum research centre and aiming for $70M more in the next few years. Sydney Uni has invested $150M (AUD) towards its Quantum and Nanoscience efforts. \nRecently\, Google claimed that it had achieved quantum supremacy – the first time a quantum computer has outperformed a traditional one. But what is quantum computing? And how does it work? How will it impact our day to day lives? \nHear from thought leaders Prof. Ben Eggleton\, Director of the University of Sydney Nano Institute and A/Prof. Ido Kaminer from the Technion – Israel Institute of Technology.

SUMMARY:Training Schrodinger's Cat: Quantum Control in Molecular Physics and Quantum Information Science
DESCRIPTION:Control refers to the ability to steer a dynamical system using external fields; quantum control does so by exploiting quantum coherence\, i.e.\, the wave nature of matter. One way to think of it is in terms of constructive and destructive interference between different quantum pathways\, all connecting the same initial and final states. I will illustrate the concept of pathway interference using the photoionization of chiral molecules\, i.e.\, molecules with a left-handed or right-handed nuclear scaffold\, as example. The ionizing field may be tailored to minimize or maximize the signature of molecular handedness in the photoelectron spectrum\, using interference between pathways probing different intermediate states.\nThe essential elements of quantum physics\, quantum coherence and entanglement\, are not only the agents of quantum control\, they are also at the core of emerging quantum technologies such as quantum-enhanced sensing or quantum information processing. I will discuss how quantum control allows to identify fundamental performance bounds and derive protocols to reach these performance bounds in realistic models for basic building blocks of quantum-enhanced sensing and quantum information processing.

This time\, both our guest speakers are industry experts. The first talk will be given by Jan-Rainer Lahmann from IBM. The second talk will then be given by both David Niehaus and Felix Paul both from StoneOne. After each speaker slot\, we have a time buffer for open questions. \nAgenda: \n18:00 – 18:15 – Hosts:\n“Welcome Note” \n18:15 – 19:15 – Speakers Slot A:\nDr. Jan-Rainer Lahmann – IBM Q Ambassador and Qiskit Advocate:\nHands-On Journey to Quantum Computing with IBM\n“Quantum Computing is one of the current hot topics in the IT industry. There are huge expectations regarding its future capabilities – but for most people (including top IT experts) it is hard to understand how quantum computing “really works”\, the principles that quantum algorithms are based on\, and what its true potential will be for specific industries.\nThis session will provide an introduction for the curious\, who would like to learn\, experience and understand quantum computing ‘hands-on’.” \n19:15 – 20:00 – Speakers Slot B:\nDavid Niehaus & Felix Paul – StoneOne AG:\nQuantum-Assisted Artificial Intelligence (QAI)\n“In this talk\, the field of QAI will be introduced. After giving an overview of the current research situation and applicability\, the PlanQK consortium led by StoneOne will be discussed in particular. PlanQK (Platform and Ecosystem for Quantum-Assisted Artificial Intelligence) brings together 15 companies and universities and is the winner of the AI Innovation Competition of the Federal Ministry of Economics and Energy. It provides both the foundations and the platform for building a community around quantum-assisted artificial intelligence. In addition\, it provides easy access to expertise\, algorithms and implementations/applications and can easily be integrated into customer systems.” \nIf you have any additional questions\, do not hesitate to contact us. To reach us\, you can use the inline chat of Meetup or our email addresses (jens.marre[at]dual-software.de & christopher.zachow[at]sva.de). The Meetup will be held in English. \nBest Regards\,\nJens Marre and Christopher Zachow

SUMMARY:Dark Matter Searches with Atomic and Nuclear Clocks
DESCRIPTION:The extraordinary advances in quantum control of matter and light have been transformative for precision measurements enabling probes of the most basic laws of Nature to gain fundamental understanding of the physical Universe. Exceptional versatility\, inventiveness\, and rapid development of precision experiments supported by continuous technological advances and improved theory give a high chance for paradigm-shifting discovery. The development of atomic clocks with systematic uncertainties in the 10-18 range enables searches for the variation of fundamental constants\, dark matter\, and violations of Lorentz invariance. I will give an overview of dark matter searches with clocks including prospects for significantly improved sensitivity with highly charged ions and a nuclear clock. At the end\, I will also introduce our new online portal for high-precision atomic data and computations.

SUMMARY:Quantum + Space with Dr. Katanya Kuntz
DESCRIPTION:Photons in Space: the Next Frontier! These are the voyages of Canada’s first Quantum Satellite Mission – the Quantum EncrYption and Science Satellite (QEYSSat). Its upcoming mission: To explore strange new physics\, and enable secure communication across Canada and around the world. To seek out new discoveries and new ways to communicate… To boldly send photons where none have gone before! The Canadian Space Agency is preparing to launch Canada’s first Quantum Science Satellite\, QEYSSat\, which will circle the Earth in low-earth orbit (500km above the ground)\, and measure individual packets of light (photons) sent from telescopes on the ground up to the satellite. QEYSSat will demonstrate secure communication across Canada using quantum laser links\, and help us explore foundational concepts in physics that cannot be tested on Earth. But how do we catch a photon in the stars? I will discuss challenges we face when bridging the gap between Quantum and Space\, and review the current Quantum Space Race\, including work being done in Waterloo on QEYSSat. Katanya Kuntz\, PhD is a Research Associate at the Institute for Quantum Computing\, University of Waterloo. She is the QEYSSat Science Team Coordinator for Canada’s first quantum satellite mission. She received her PhD in Electrical Engineering (Quantum Optics) from the University of New South Wales\, Australia (2013)\, and BSc in Physics from the University of Calgary (2008). She works in the field of experimental quantum optics\, such as generating quantum states of light using lasers and non-linear crystals to study quantum entanglement. She is active in promoting STEAM education via outreach in schools\, the community\, and volunteer work.

SUMMARY:Quantum Communications Technologies
DESCRIPTION:The internet is built on the world’s current secure communications infrastructure. However\, we know that aspects of this are under threat from the emergence of quantum computers. This vulnerability provides a driver for the engineering of new\, future-proof\, practical\, secure communications — with commercialisation potential and compatibility with existing infrastructure. Work is underway to deliver such technologies\, by developing existing prototype quantum-secure technologies beyond their current limitations and combining these with new cryptographic techniques resistant to quantum computer threat. This work is establishing new\, “quantum safe” communications technologies and services in the UK\, feeding their future expansion\, competitiveness\, diversification and sustainability. \nTim Spiller will explain the role of the Quantum Communications Hub\, part of the UK National Quantum Technologies Programme\, in the development of these new technologies and services. Jonathan Legh-Smith will give BT’s perspective on the commercial imperative for quantum-secured communications.
