Physical Review Journal Club - Quantum Research with the Authors

Join a Physical Review Journal Club discussion featuring author Christopher S. Wang and co-authors as they delve into their recent PRX paper on efficient multiphoton sampling of molecular vibronic spectra using a superconducting bosonic processor. Explore applications of quantum technology in chemistry, focusing on efficient representations for quantum simulation and molecular spectroscopy. Learn about the computation of molecular vibronic spectra and its implementation using microwave photons. Discover the non-demolition number resolved photon detector and the research goal of efficient quantum simulation. Examine simulator outputs for different molecular transitions and understand the bosonic algorithm for obtaining Franck Condon factors. Gain insights from the speakers and moderator Marissa Giustina from Google Research in this informative 71-minute session hosted by PRA Associate Editor Katiuscia N. Cassemiro.
