Congratulations to Laura Pecorari on the successful defense of her PhD thesis

On Thursday 24 September, Laura Pecorari, PhD student in Guido Pupillo’s group, successfully defended her thesis titled “Building blocks for fault-tolerant quantum computation with neutral atom arrays,”. In it, she tackles one of the central challenges in neutral atom quantum computing: connectivity. Laura investigated the trade-off between qubit connectivity and experimental cost, aiming to store […]

Annual meeting of CNRS GDR Quantum Gases in Strasbourg

Since 21 April, the CESQ has been connected to the REFIMEVE research infrastructure network, managed by the Laboratory of Laser Physics and the Time and Space Laboratory (LTE), which distributes the most accurate time and frequency references available via fibre optics from the LTE’s atomic clocks. This distribution is carried out without any degradation in […]
