ESE Spring Colloquium – “Quantum Many-Body Physics in the NISQ Era”

Raisler Lounge (Room 225), Towne Building 220 South 33rd Street, Philadelphia, PA, United States

Rapid progress in quantum computing technologies is ushering in a new era for quantum many-body physics. Today's noisy, intermediate-scale quantum (NISQ) devices, while still far from fault-tolerant quantum computers, are […]

PICS Colloquium “Driving physics of inverted flag flapping”

Zoom - email kathom@seas.upenn.edu

Abstract: Fluid-structure interaction (FSI) is ubiquitous in the natural and engineered world, and a better understanding of FSI systems can aid in the design of renewable energy harvesting technologies, bio-inspired propulsion […]

PICS Colloquium: “Mechanics of Polymeric Gels”

PICS Conference Room 534 - A Wing , 5th Floor 3401 Walnut Street, Philadelphia, PA, United States

This talk discusses recent and ongoing research on the multiphysics response of polymeric gels. A polymeric gel is a polymeric material swollen by a fluid, and the intake or out-flow […]

ESE Spring Seminar – “Dynamics and Control of Quantum Systems”

Raisler Lounge (Room 225), Towne Building 220 South 33rd Street, Philadelphia, PA, United States

In practice, quantum systems of interest are never isolated. The presence of noise or the interaction with an environment can radically change a system’s dynamics, typically destroying resources such as […]

ESE Spring Colloquium – “Quantum Device Benchmarking from Many-Body Quantum Chaos”

Raisler Lounge (Room 225), Towne Building 220 South 33rd Street, Philadelphia, PA, United States

Recently, there has been remarkable progress towards the development of large-scale quantum devices through advances in quantum science and technology. This progress opens new doors for proof-of-principle demonstrations of quantum […]
