Dear quantum folks,
Rigetti quantum computing is a startup that builds impressive superconducting quantum computers. They are going to be running a workshop at MIT this
coming Tuesday, April 9th, from 3-5pm in the Haus room, 36-428. The purpose of the workshop is to introduce their devices to the community, and to give a tutorial on how to program them. This is a real opportunity for people who would like to do experiments with real quantum computers: like IBM, Rigetti are making their quantum computers available on the cloud for you to use for your own experiments. Plus, refreshments will be served!
Please join us and take a look. If you want to play around with their interface beforehand, you can find tutorials and demos for the Rigetti devices at

Joint Quantum Seminar
Wednesday, April 3, 2019
4:00 PM, Jefferson 250
Prof. Masahito Ueda, University of Tokyo
“Nonequilibrium thermodynamics and many-body dynamics in open quantum systems”
Quantum gas microscopy has revolutionized our view on quantum many-body systems where atoms trapped in an optical lattice can be observed in real time at the single-particle level. At such extreme precision, the measurement backaction due to Heisenberg’s uncertainty relation can no longer be ignored. One should naturally be led to the question of how nonequilibrium thermodynamics and many-body physics should be modified in open quantum systems. I will address these issues and closely related problems such as a non-Hermitian Kondo problem, many-body localization and quantum magnetism at negative temperatures.
Student Presentation will begin at 4:00
Guest Presentation will begin at 4:30 PM
Refreshments will be provided

Hello group,
Luis Martin will speak at the group meeting tomorrow. Please find below his title and abstract. The Toronto side will meet in SS571 at 2:30pm. Please send me you Skype information if you would like to join the meeting.
Also, I need someone to take the group meeting spot that has become available on April 25th. Please send me a message or email if you could volunteer to present this day. Thanks so much!
See you all tomorrow,
Riley

Title: Flow batteries: from electrodes to electrolyte discovery and some semi-supervised learning.
Abstract: This is an overview of the projects in flow batteries that I have developed in the group also, I’m starting a new project in semi-supervised learning. I would like to share with you the progress and future development of these. Questions and suggestions are welcome!
