SUMMARY:Quantum BC Seminar Series - Himadri Shekhar Dhar
DESCRIPTION:Join us on Tuesday\, July 9 at 2pm for a seminar by Dr. Himadri Shekhar Dhar from IIT Bombay.\n\n\n\nJoin on Zoom: \nhttps://ubc.zoom.us/j/69443327772?pwd=TGhhTXFIQ3ZiUmNrN0pUa3FObTNydz09 \nMeeting ID: 694 4332 7772 Passcode: 996727 \n\nJoin in Person: \nUBC: MCLD 3038 \nSFU: WAC 7200 \nUVIC: ELL 226 \nSeminar Title: Theoretical approaches to study quantum properties of collective states in a cavity \nSeminar Abstract: The interaction of collective states of spins or atoms with a quantum resonator has been harnessed to build different platforms for quantum information processing ranging from quantum computing and simulation to metrology. In this talk\, we look at a few theoretical and computational approaches to study the dynamics of these systems. First\, we describe how powerful tensor-network methods can be used to investigate the transfer of quantum information from the states of a cavity to the collective states of an ensemble of qubits or spins. Secondly\, we show how quantum sensing of rotational properties of collective states of an atomic superfluid can be enhanced by exploiting the tools of quantum optomechanics. \n  \nBio: Himadri Shekhar Dhar is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Physics\, Indian Institute of Technology Bombay\, India since February 2021. Prior to Mumbai\, he was a research assistant at Imperial College London\, United Kingdom (2019-2021) and a Lise-Meitner fellow at the Institute for Theoretical Physics\, Vienna University of Technology (TU Wien)\, Austria (2016-2018). He finished his PhD in 2015 from the School of Physical Sciences\, Jawaharlal Nehru University\, New Delhi\, India and till 2016 was a postdoctoral fellow in Harish-Chandra Research Institute\, Prayagraj\, India. His research focus has been to unravel the physical nature of correlations that connect the various parts of complex and exquisite quantum systems\, primarily from the perspective of theoretical quantum information and computing\, optics and many-body physics. In recent years\, he has been working on quantum dynamics and quantum information protocols in collective states\, quantum light-matter interaction and hybrid systems\, aiming at developing and optimising quantum technology.

SUMMARY:Application Deadline for NSERC CREATE
DESCRIPTION:NSERC CREATE in Quantum Computing Program Page \nNext application deadline is July 15\, 2024 for Fall 2024 intake. \nEligibility: \n\nCurrent or prospective graduate student at UBC\, SFU or UVic\nInterest in Quantum Computing with supervisor supporting your QC research\n\nThis unique training program will equip graduates with skills in both building quantum computing hardware and software. \nThis program\, hosted by the Quantum Matter Institute at the University of British Columbia (UBC)\, is co-delivered by faculty at three BC universities (UBC\, SFU and UVic) with collaboration from leading quantum hardware and software companies. \nStudents will acquire highly specialized technical expertise and commercial skills in both quantum computing hardware and software through a combination of hands-on workshops\, research projects\, industrial internships and professional development workshops to ensure job readiness among graduates pursuing careers in the emerging quantum computing technologies sector. Further information on the program can be found below. \nThis program is not a graduate program by itself. It is meant as “add on” training to a student’s degree program. Every student will have a home department and will take part in the CREATE Quantum Computing Program in addition to their other studies. \nSteps to Apply: \n\nEnsure you are eligible (a current or prospective Masters or PhD student at UBC\, SFU or UVic)\nReview the Scholar Handbook (see below) to learn more about the program\nFill out the Graduate Scholarship Application (see below) and submit with a CV and transcripts to the link provided.\n\nFor more information\, please contact the Program Coordinator: bahiyyih.peters@ubc.ca \nApply Here
