Cornerstone Models of Quantum Computing: Virtual Summer School
Virtual eventTRIUMF together with its partners - Stewart Blusson Quantum Matter Institute, the University of British Columbia, Quantum Algorithms Institute, Simon Fraser University, University of Victoria, Université de Sherbrooke, Helmholtz's Assocation DESY and our industry partners Xanadu and D-Wave - are pleased to announce the Cornerstone Models of Quantum Computing Summer School / TRIUMF Summer Institute 2021, which will be taking place remotely from August 2 – 13, 2021.
Controlling Emergent Behavior in Quantum Matter from a Theory Perspective
Virtual eventSpeaker: Prineha Narang, Harvard University
CM Seminar: Controlling Emergent Behavior in Quantum Matter from a Theory Perspective
Virtual eventSpeaker: Prineha Narang, Assistant Professor at Harvard University My group’s research focuses on how quantum matter behaves, particularly away from equilibrium, and how we can harness emergent effects in these systems. In this context, I will focus on our newly introduced approaches to describe excited-states in quantum matter, including electron-electron and electron-phonon interactions beyond […]
New Student Orientation
Stewart Blusson Quantum Matter Institute Room 311, 2235 East Mall, Vancouver, British Columbia, CanadaNew students are invited to learn about the Stewart Blusson Quantum Matter Institute (Blusson QMI) from our Scientific Director, Andrea Damascelli, and gain practical advice from other members of Blusson QMI and the student committee. Save the date and await more information in the upcoming days. Lunch will be served.
Jason Alicea: Internally engineered Majorana modes in twisted bilayer graphene
Virtual eventAbstract: Twisted bilayer graphene (TBG) realizes an exquisitely tunable, strongly interacting system featuring superconductivity and various correlated insulating states. In this talk I will introduce gate-defined wires in TBG as an enticing platform for Majorana-based fault-tolerant qubits. Our proposal notably relies on “internally” generated superconductivity in TBG – as opposed to “external” superconducting proximity effects […]

CM Seminar – Benjamin Frandsen
Talk title: From Quantum Magnets to Magnetic Thermoelectrics: Short-Range Spin Correlations and the Secrets They Keep Speaker: Benjamin Frandsen, Brigham Young University Abstract: Short-range magnetic correlations have been increasingly recognized in recent years for their importance in contexts as widely varied as geometrically frustrated magnetism and functional magnetocaloric materials. Neutron scattering provides experimental access to […]
