Quantum physicist (she/her)👩‍🔬 PostDoc in Vienna

Joined July 2016
🥳I won a thing (#quantumchallenge2023) from @SciMeltingPot 🌟 Check out my analogy for the Heisenberg uncertainty principle in the thread below🎸⚛️ P.S. Of course this is just an anology. If you want to know how the real thing works it needs a bit of math.

New preprint from QuITter Phila @phila_quant: The bases are really loaded for this one! She and her collaborators expain here how your choice of basis functions can drastically affect computation times in quantum optimal control calculations. arxiv.org/abs/2405.20889

Do you work on variational quantum algorithms or quantum machine learning? If so, please check our latest article: arxiv.org/abs/2312.09121 Here, we ask: Are barren plateau-free models classically simulable? Should we rethink variational QC as a whole? LONG 🧵 below 1/n

Deep congratulations to my brother in quantum arms Florian Meier on his first first-author PRL on the fundamental physics of keeping track of time. The accuracy of a clock lower bounds a function of the resolution at which it can keep track of time. journals.aps.org/prl/abstrac…

BREAKING NEWS The Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences has decided to award the 2023 #NobelPrize in Physics to Pierre Agostini, Ferenc Krausz and Anne L’Huillier “for experimental methods that generate attosecond pulses of light for the study of electron dynamics in matter.”

should I go watch the new quantum computing Black Mirror episode and live tweet all the scientific inaccuracies just to ruin it à la NDT

Winner 🏆 of our #quantumchallenge2023 is @phila_quant and she explained the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle using an analogy with guitars! Check out the thread below to know more about the analogy ⬇️ – at Arhus, Denmark

If the string is struck, you can hear its pitch🎶, but no longer tell the exact position👾 of the mark. (unclear position, clear pitch)

The quantum equivalent of this relationship is what we call the 💡uncertainty principle💡: Two quantities that are not measurable at the same time are called “conjugate variables”. One example of such a pair is the position and speed of a particle.

QUANTUM 👏TECHNOLOGY 👏IS 👏ALREADY 👏HERE
With just 2 days until #WorldQuantumDay on April 14th, let's learn about 2 places where quantum is in your everyday life. If you're interested in learning more, join us Friday to explore the power of quantum in real life! For more information go to iquist.illinois.edu/discover…

😰 The proposal to reform the #WissZeitVG in Germany is terrifying. 🥼 If this goes through PostDoc time will be reduced to max 3 instead of 6 years, while there is no visible incentive for more permanent positions. WHAT A NIGHTMARE

Optimizing pulses for the conception of gates is important to reduce errors on #quantum computer. @MarcoRossignolo, @nv_alastair, @phila_quant et al. introduce a new package of quantum optimal control, QuOCS. More details in: arxiv.org/abs/2212.11144 #QuantumComputing
