Elyakim Zlotnick: "Entanglement-Assisted Covert Communication via Qubit Depolarizing Channels"

Weekly seminar

20 Mar 2024

13:30

The standard security approach in communications aims to prevent a malicious eavesdropper from retrieving the information that is transmitted to the legitimate receiver. However, privacy and safety concerns may require an even stronger security criterion.

Prof. Efi Shahmoon: "Quantum entanglement at the origin of classical radiation"

Weekly seminar

20 Feb 2024

14:30

15:30

We consider the relation between the state of a macroscopic spin, such as an ensemble of atoms, and the radiation it emits. We introduce a new family of collective spin states, defined as the asymptotic eigenstates of the SU(2) lowering operator.

Dr. Tom Manovitz, Harvard University (M. Lukin group): "Logical qubit quantum computing with neutral atom arrays "

Weekly seminar

15 Feb 2024

12:30

13:30

Large-scale quantum computing will likely require quantum computers with very low error rates, potentially achievable with quantum error correction (QEC). In QEC, errors are suppressed by nonlocally encoding information using logical qubits.

Orr Dunkelman: "Post-Quantum Cryptography to the Rescue!"

Weekly seminar

06 Feb 2024

15:30

Cryptography offers many solutions for people who wish to communicate securely - from encrypting messages to authenticating them, from jointly computing a function to jointly holding on to a secret (and many more).

Prof. Shivaji Sondhi: "Machian fractons, Hamiltonian attractors and non-equilibrium steady states"

Seminar

30 Jan 2024

14:30

15:30

I will discuss a set of results on the classical mechanics of fractons - being defined as particles whose dynamics obeys a consistent set of multipole conservation laws. I will show that the nonlinear, Machian, dynamics of the fractons is characterized by late-time attractors in position-velocity s

Colloquium

29 Jan 2024

15:30

I will describe some work on the theme of exploring many body quantum mechanics by playing games with its help. One set of results raises the possibility of classifying quantum states by asking whether they confer a quantum advantage in winning a particular game.

Who Moved My Atom?

11 Nov 2024

An experimental setup built at the Technion Faculty of Physics demonstrates the transfer of atoms from one place to another through quantum tunneling between optical tweezers. Led by Prof. Yoav Sagi and doctoral student Yanay Florshaim from the Solid State Institute, the research was published in Science Advances.

How does light propagate in integrated circuits on chips?

Researchers at the Technion are answering this question and paving the way to new applications in communication, imaging, and quantum computing. The field of photonic integrated circuits focuses on the miniaturization of photonic elements and their integration in photonic chips – circuits that carry out a range of calculations using..

Yuval Shagam won an ERC grant

Assistant Professor Yuval Shagam from the Schulich Faculty of Chemistry is a member of the Helen Diller Quantum Center. He focuses on understanding molecular chirality: a molecule or ion that cannot be superposed on its mirror image. Such molecules are often distinguished as either “right-handed” or “left-handed.” Molecular chirality plays a central role in many fields, ranging from reaction dynamics to drug development. Molecules of opposite-handedness, known as enantiomers, can have different smells and different medicinal properties among other things.
