Trapped Atomic Ion, or Possibly Just Elephant+
Primary tabs
Some years after receiving a prestigious certificate for “Excellent participation in Science” in Mrs. Borgmann’s 1st grade class, Wes Campbell completed his dissertation on trapped molecules at Harvard and became a postdoc at the JQI working with trapped ions in Chris Monroe's group. Since starting UCLA, Wes’s group has been focusing on the development of a few new tools for trapped ion and molecular quantum information processing and basic science.

Summary
In fact, this is now so routine that it is easy for us to lose track of how exotic this is. This seminar will explore some of the ways that quantum states of angular momentum may be utilized for next-generation advances in quantum science. Along the way, keep your eyes peeled for Casimir's Elephant, plants that glow in the dark, and Gollum's Qubit.
