| 11:00 - 12:00 Journal Club: Experiment & Phenomenology – meeting The effects of the non-evaporable getter thickness on wall impedance in a storage ring. School PARTICLES AND ACCELERATORS Abstract: The development of modern particle accelerators with ultra-low emittance has led to the use of Non-Evaporable Getter (NEG)-coated vacuum chambers. The thickness of the NEG coating is a crucial factor in determining the beam dynamic effects. A recent study examines the longitudinal and transverse impedance of a copper chamber coated with a NEG, analyzing the effects of varying NEG thickness over a wide frequency range. The study suggests that the right selection of NEG layer thickness can significantly reduce the coating effects on the longitudinal and transverse beam impedance. The study's numerical results demonstrat ... 16:00 - 18:00 Biweekly Seminar Derrida, Speech Acts, and the Problem of Founding a Republic School PHILOSOPHY Derrida, Speech Acts, and the Problem of Founding a Republic ... 18:30 - 19:30 Seminar Women in Science Architecting full-stack quantum computing systems in the NISQ era and beyond School PHYSICS Abstract: The advances in quantum hardware with functional quantum processors integrating tens of noisy qubits, together with the availability of near-term quantum algorithms have allowed the development of the so-called full-stacks that bridge quantum applications with quantum devices. In this talk, we will provide an overview of the different layers of the quantum computing full-stack, with emphasis on the software ones that include the compilation of quantum algorithms. We will then discuss the need for optimal physical-aware and algorithm-driven compilation techniques in the midst of the NISQ (Noisy Intermediate-scale quantum) era. We wi ... |
