Measuring quantum states with light | fAQ podcast - season 2 ep. 6

Saison 2 · Épisode 6

mercredi 11 octobre 2023 • Durée 36:39

Welcome to season 2 finale of fAQ! For this season, Tai-Danae and Adam focused on a single topic: What is actually happening inside a quantum computer? By the end of this season, you'll have a better understanding of the "how" of quantum computing. So get ready to go beyond the theory and dig into what's actually going on these machines that harness the fundamental forces of the universe! In this sixth episode, we continue our exploration into DiVincenzo's fifth criterion for functional quantum computers: "Measurement of individual qubits". Specifically, we dig into what it means to "measure" something, in both the everyday context and in the quantum world. You might end up being surprised how similar those are and how not-strange measurement is in the quantum context...well at least some parts of those measurements! Oh, and we talk about how you, yes YOU, can work towards winning a Nobel Prize using the fAQ comment section ;-) Want to get in touch? Write us at faq-podcast@sandboxaq.com Host Bios: Tai-Danae Bradley is a research mathematician at SandboxAQ. She earned a PhD in mathematics from the CUNY Graduate Center and is creator of the mathematics blog, Math3ma, and a former cohost of PBS Infinite Series.

Creating quantum entanglement with calcium ions | fAQ podcast - season 2 ep. 5

Saison 2 · Épisode 5

mardi 19 septembre 2023 • Durée 01:01:44

Heads-up, you might want to check out the video version of fAQ this time, there are a lot of graphics that will help you through this topic!Welcome to season 2 of fAQ!

For this season, Tai-Danae and Adam will be focusing on a single topic: What is actually happening inside a quantum computer? By the end of this season, you'll have a better understanding of the "how" of quantum computing. So get ready to go beyond the theory and dig into what's actually going on these machines that harness the fundamental forces of the universe!

In this fifth episode, we continue our exploration into DiVincenzo's fourth criterion for functional quantum computers: "A universal set of quantum gates". Specifically, we look at two-qubit gates and really dig into how quantum entanglement works and how to create it among trapped ions. And along the way, you'll hear about what old-school Nintendo cheat codes and not-stealing M&Ms has to do with all of this!

The fAQ on superposition - ep. 02

Saison 1 · Épisode 2

mardi 28 mars 2023 • Durée 59:16

What is superposition?! And what does it have to do with qubits and quantum technology? Tai-Danae and Adam are joined by Stefan Leichenauer, VP of Engineering at SandboxAQ to make sense of this fundamental property of the quantum world. Want to get in touch? Write us at faq-podcast@sandboxaq.com Chapters: 00:00 Introductions 00:26 Recap from ep. 01 01:18 What is superposition? 02:56 Etymology of superposition 07:50 Ok, what's the actual definition of superposition? 12:07 But what about the randomness? 12:40 Tying a bow on one way to think about superposition 15:20 Let's bring in an expert! 16:33 How did Stefan think about superposition when he first learned about it? 22:10 An explanation of superposition to quantum and math novices 24:09 Real data explained by superposition - inherent randomness 26:01 Quantum observations vs non-quantum observations - randomness in outcomes 28:18 Does superposition mean something is doing two things at the same time? 30:59 A concrete example of superposition - the electron cloud 34:39 Historical use of the word superposition 36:02 Yes, but what is the position of the thing that's in superposition? 41:17 How can you measure the position of an electron? 44:49 What other data does superposition explain? 48:37 How can we apply superposition to create tools and application? 52:15 Final words of wisdom about learning superposition 54:39 It's a long journey to fully grasp these concepts!

Why care about quantum computing? How does it work? | fAQ podcast - season 2 ep. 1

Saison 2 · Épisode 1

mercredi 21 juin 2023 • Durée 26:58

Welcome to season 2 of fAQ!

In this first episode, we set the stage for the rest of the season by talking about why, if at all, you might want to care about quantum computing. Then we start to address the big elephant in the room whenever quantum computing comes up: hype! And finally, we describe the framework we'll be using for the rest of the season: DiVincenzo's criteria for a quantum computer.
