Elated to leap into the @APSphysics Fellowship class of 2023! With a bow and boundless thanks to those those who taught and inspired my generation, and a booming "ahoy!" to the next generation ready to set their own sails.
I'm honored to be elected among such an inspiring group of scientists to the class of 2023 @APSphysics Fellowship aps.org/programs/honors/fell…. Congratulations to my fellow quantum classmates: Adolfo del Campo, Sophia Economou, Jonathan Home, Jens Koch, Xiongfeng Ma, Graeme Smith!

Welcome to our SQMS 2023 Intern class! Yesterday our friends @NorthwesternU hosted the students for an intro event, tour and special seminar. @Fermilab @doescience #QuantumComputing #STEM #internship

Apply now to USQIS, the 1st US Quantum Information Science Summer School (Aug 6-15, 2023 @Fermilab). Develop expertise & hands-on skills in quantum research! This DOE-funded school is a joint project of C2QA, QSA, QSC, QNEXT, & SQMS. Read on & apply here: bit.ly/3m0GvLW
Admin mantra for a content evening— Complications? … Complications are only the intricate wrinkles that life throws, so that circles aren’t so boring. (Inspired by a chat with @vatsanchakram .)
Down memory lane: a slide I made as a PhD student with Felix von Oppen. The topic: molecular electronics. One of its founding fathers: Mark Ratner, Northwestern Chemistry. Northwestern Physics: my academic home for 12 years now. So grateful for all that Felix von Oppen taught me.

We have an NQIAC.

Northwestern has an opening for a theorist working on condensed matter / quantum information science (assistant or associate professor rank). Come join us! Details here: physics.northwestern.edu/abo…
One of my favorite moments today: Angela Kou, Bill Fefferman, Luigi Frunzio, Yoni Kahn and Kasra Nowrouzi on a panel moderated by Eleanor Rieffel - day 1 at the 2022 SQMS annual meeting! @sqmscenter
Thanks to @nanonoodle Andrew Houck, our fearless C2QA Director, (as well as all involved!) for making the past two days a productive, well-planned and fun annual meeting! Glad to be part of @C2QAdvantage!
Congratulations, Anna Grasselino, on this extraordinary achievement! @AGrassellino @sqmscenter
Congratulations to Anna Grassellino for receiving the 2023 New Horizons in Physics BREAKTHROUGH Prize. For the discovery of major performance enhancements to niobium superconducting radio….. breakthroughprize.org/News/7…
In an experimental effort led by Jake Bryon and @nanonoodle, we show that care must be taken when modeling dynamics in the presence of time dependent flux. Simply taking flux -> flux(t) in your Hamiltonian is not enough!
My student Jake Bryon and Jens Koch's student Danny Weiss have just posted their work that experimentally verifies how to properly perform circuit quantization in the presence of time varying flux (arxiv.org/abs/2208.03738) Nice work team! @scqubit @d_k_weiss
Interested in low-frequency qubits like heavy fluxonium, and how to perform high-fidelity gates? Led by @d_k_weiss & joined by our Schuster friends @schusterqed, we have a new preprint on a galvanic-coupling scheme for fluxonia based on non-RWA physics. arxiv.org/abs/2207.03971
Scqubits v3 is out: enter your own circuit, get symbolic and numeric Hamiltonians & explore more of the world of superconducting qubits! See our preprint arxiv.org/abs/2206.08320 & install via conda or pip.
Also check out the friendly competition's work by @Amir_Safavi_N, see arxiv.org/abs/2206.08319
Caught on the way back from Quantum Cavities: the GPS performing a position measurement of @AndreasAtETH as he was tunneling across the river. Thanks to Alexandre @circuitqed and Aash for making this the best workshop ever!

Great seeing colleagues and friends again at the #Quantum Cavities Workshop at Jouvence, #Canada after three years.
Great #science and great discussions.

Very excited to be part of unitaryHACK for the first time! A huge thank you to @NathanShammah and the entire Unitary Fund team! (Happy to connect with people interested in joining the scqubits bounty hunt, if there are questions.)
Great to have @scqubits on unitaryHACK. This tool helps simulate superconducting circuit qubit, since each one of these artificial atoms has its own characteristics, which can be designed with flexibility: flux qubits, transmons, etc. more details at github.com/scqubits/scqubits
