Session I: Landscape and keynotes
- Paolo Olivero (TO)
- Raffaele Tripiccione (FE)
The second quantum mechanical revolution is based on the manipulation and control of single or coupled quantum systems called qubits.The negatively charged NV centers based on the nitrogen atom and a vacancy in diamond is one of these solid state qubits at room temperature. Ion implantation is the only way to generate and address NV centers in diamond with high lateral resolution. Recently, we...
In the last years the specific properties of quantum states (as entanglement), for long time considered as peculiarities discussed by the restricted community of physicists interested in the foundations of quantum mechanics, became a fundamental resource for the development of new technologies (as quantum communication, computation and imaging), collectively dubbed “quantum...
The talk is divided in three short sections:
1) A practical application: quantum tomography in x-ray medical apparata (project founded by CERN based on
2) A theoretical tool: the "quantum comb" (general method for optimisation of quantum circuits, algorithms, protocols, ...)
3) New foundations: “Information” as a paradigm for Quantum Theory and Quantum Field Theory.
