Northland Community and Technical College, East Grand Forks Campus2022 Central Ave NWEast Grand ForksMN56721

The BIG Event provides science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) concepts and educational exhibits to Girl Scouts, their families, and the community. Local organizations are invited to host a booth and provide hands-on, minds-on activities that introduce participants to STEM. Hosted in six locations around the council, the BIG Event gives girls an opportunity to explore all the ways STEM interests can become a lifelong career. 

Girl Scouts introduces girls of every age and their families to science, technology, engineering and math (STEM), and helps them take action to change the world – whether they’re programming robots, building a bridge, learning code, caring for animals or piloting a flight simulator.

Quantum computing is presently in a “pre-vacuum-tube” era, with noisy devices that need error correction. But such architectures require many physical components, creating a high hardware and control overhead. Instead, a different paradigm based on individual devices, each with a high number of internal levels, has been proposed to achieve better hardware efficiency. The challenge then is how to accomplish universal control over such a multilevel system. This talk presents a new protocol for multi-level control (“matrix element modification”) in which the correspondence between control parameters and the resulting quantum dynamics of the oscillator is clear. This protocol was recently used to demonstrate high-dimensional quantum control of a harmonic oscillator, producing dynamics akin to that of a rotating top that are useful for logical quantum operations.
