Quantum computing is emerging as a remarkable technology that promises to achieve major scientific breakthroughs. This includes solving complex problems whose solution lies well beyond contemporary and even future supercomputers based on conventional technologies. Interacting with these quantum computers, including noisy-intermediate scale quantum devices, for both basic and applied research will require a unique collection...

The National Meeting of Optics (RNO) is a triennial congress organized by the Spanish Society of Optics (SEDOPTICA), which has a long history of more than 30 years. An average of 200 professionals from different specialties of Optics and Photonics in Spain converge in each RNO and it is where the latest scientific and technological advances...

Quantum Science and Technologies have a huge potential to impact established industrial sectors, building new emerging industries and niche segments and creating economic value. The ongoing progress on building quantum computers, together with the push of quantum technologies including secure communication, sensing and quantum simulations are complemented by the vast family of emerging quantum materials (2D...

The Quantum Pitch Competition 2021 will be hosted virtually the 25th of November. Startups and investors from all areas of the world are encouraged to apply. This event is designed to be a unique chance for startups seeking additional funding to pitch to investors with an interest in the field of quantum technologies. Participating investors...

This will be a follow-on to the first EQTC conference held in Grenoble, France in 2019. EQTC 2021 will provide full coverage of the most prominent and recent advances in European and International quantum technology activities across basic sciences, communication, computing, simulation and sensing/metrology. The conference program addresses a wide range of topics in quantum...

The AIP runs biennial Congresses to bring the Australian Physics community together.  A new host is chosen each time, and the program committee draws heavily on input from the topical groups. The 24th Congress was scheduled for Adelaide from 6-11 December 2020, but has been postponed due to the corona virus pandemic, to 6-10 December,...

In the last decade or so quantum technologies have made tremendous progress, from redefining the second to establishing quantum supremacy. This unequalled ability to control quantum systems leads to a potential to make measurements with unprecedented accuracy. Quantum technologies have already been at play in various fronts such as the observation of gravitational waves and in searches for...

Within the next decade, quantum computing has the potential to provide insight to problems in physics and chemistry that would otherwise be intractable. Examples of such problems span from predicting molecular spectra to simulating field theories to probing the dynamics of spin models. Because large fault tolerant machines are still in the distant future, it...
