Joint Astronomy and Physics Colloquium with Ken Brown of Duke University

Please join Ken Brown of Duke during his joint physics and astronomy colloquium entitled, “The Fault is in our Qubits” at 3:15PM via zoom.  Quantum computing promises to revolutionize how we compute, but current devices are limited by noisy qubits. In this talk, I will first discuss the difference between standard computers and quantum computers. I will then explain how the rules of quantum mechanics makes error correction more difficult than in the classical setting. Finally, I will describe current experiments implementing the basics of quantum error correction.
