Quantum simulators based on cold atoms in optical lattices showcased at the “Conference on Quantum Technologies in Europe”

Monika Aidelsburger, researcher from Max-Planck-Institute of Quantum Optics & professor at LMU Munich, and consortium member of the Dynamite project, participated as a speaker in the “Quantum Achievements and Challenges” session of the “Conference on Quantum Technologies in Europe“. The conference, organized by Quantera in collaboration with the Agencia Estatal de Investigación (AEI) from Spain, took place on November 22 and 23, as a satellite event of the Spanish Presidency of the EU.

The registration for the “The Quantum Simulators of the Future” is open

The Italian city of Trieste will host the “The Quantum Simulators of the Future” workshop, co-sponsored by the Dynamite project. The workshop will take place from February 20th to 22nd, 2024, at the International Centre for Theoretical Physics (ICTP) facilities. The ICTP act as local organizer. The workshop, featuring 13 confirmed speakers, will bring toghether some of the most influential and pioneering groups in the field of quantum simulation.

New Approach for Ultracold Fermion Quantum Simulation of U(1) Lattice Gauge Theories.

Quantum simulators provide unique opportunities for controlled studies of quantum many-body systems. One of the most appealing settings where these techniques may have a profound impact in the future is particle physics. In that context, the primary target are gauge theories – theories that made up the standard model of particle physics, that encompasses our understanding of both nuclear and electromagnetic forces. Finding specific realizations of such gauge theories in quantum computers and simulators has the potential to shed light on some of the most profound aspects of basic physical phenomena, in particular, for those that are not accessible by standard computational techniques

Dynamite partners analyze the present and future of quantum simulators in the QUANTUMatter 2023 Conference

The third edition of the Quantum Matter International Conference – QUANTUMatter 2023 took place on 23-25 May 2023 in Madrid. The conference aims to bring together the members of the different communities involved in science and technologies of quantum information and quantum matter in order to promote the generation of new, cutting edge ideas and partnerships in quantum technologies, emerging quantum materials, new generation protocols in quantum communication, quantum sensing, and quantum simulation.

Dynamite team members at the Spring School on Open-Source Tools for Quantum Computing & Simulation

Several partners of the Dynamite project participated in the Spring School on Open-Source Tools for Quantum Computing & Simulation, which took place from 29th to 31 March. The event was organized by ICFO and sponsored by IBM Quantum within the framework of the DigiQ – Digitally Enhanced Quantum Technology Master.

Dynamite project at the VI Pyrenees Winter School

During the 14-17th February 2023, the ICFO node participated in the VI Pyrenees Winter School celebrated in Setcases (Girona). This is a biannual meeting aimed to bring together the different research groups of Barcelona interested in quantum technologies.

Generation of many-body Bell correlated states in optical lattices

Quantum correlations are a fundamental aspect of quantum mechanics. They refer to the correlations between the outcomes of measurements performed on two or more particles in a quantum system. These correlations can exhibit strange and counterintuitive behaviors not present in classical systems.

High Harmonic spectroscopy unveils the phase transitions of high-temperature superconductors

Superconductors are materials that exhibit the ability to conduct electricity without any resistance. This phenomenon is observed in materials when they are cooled below the so-called superconductor transition temperature, often at very low temperatures (a few degrees above the absolute 0). Among these materials, there are the so-called high-temperature superconductors, which behave as superconductors at temperatures above 77K (the boiling point of liquid nitrogen). These materials are showing to be essential in the development of new electronic and information processing devices as well as optical quantum computers and even for improving the efficiency of electrical transmission lines.

Dynamite Project Kick-Off Meeting

On December the 1st, the kick-off Meeting of the Dynamite project took place at ICFO facilities in Castelldefels, Barcelona. The project is aimed at developing a new family of simulators based on cold atoms focused on gauge theories. The project consortium is composed of six partners and is led by ICFO.
