DAMOP 2015, my post conference report
DAMOP 2015 has drawn to a close, and I have been reflecting on what has made this conference once again so special and enjoyable to attend. DAMOP is remarkable on many levels, but first and foremost, it has a very… Read More ›
JPhysB Review Roundup
A roundup of the Topical Reviews and Tutorials JPhysB has published so far this year.
Image of the week: quantum measurement
Quantum physics has revolutionized our understanding of information processing and enables computational speed-ups that are unattainable using classical computers. At least that is the case according to Stefanie Barz (University of Oxford, UK) in her new tutorial review in Journal of… Read More ›
Funniest preprint title this week
Christopher Ferrie and Richard Kueng get a chuckle for naming their preprint Have you been using the wrong estimator? These guys bound average fidelity using this one weird trick von Neumann didn’t want you to know. Sadly, the paper doesn’t contain 31 gifs of quantum states that prove you were a 90s kid.
