QUANTUM ENTANGLEMENT AND INFORMATION PROCESSING

INTRICATION ET TRAITEMENT D'INFORMATION QUANTIQUES

LES HOUCHES 2003 SUMMER SCHOOL
SESSION 79, June 30 - July 25, 2003

EUROSUMMERSCHOOL

• Daniel ESTEVE (Quantronics group, SPEC, CEA-Saclay, France)
• Jean-Michel RAIMOND (Laboratoire Kastler Brossel, ENS, Paris, France)

Description of the School:

The recent discovery that the laws of quantum physics could be used for efficient information processing or transmission led to a considerable upsurge of interest in developing a deeper understanding of quantum mechanics, and in fabricating genuine quantum processors. This new field gathers around common objectives various communities, such as theoretical physics, quantum optics or solid state physics.
On the theoretical side, the major advances concern quantum algorithms and quantum error correction codes. On the experimental side, significant advances have been realized in quantum optics, solid state physics and nuclear magnetic resonance. In particular, quantum logic gates have been demonstrated, and small-size quantum algorithms have been operated.
This school aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the theoretical and experimental aspects of quantum entanglement and information processing. It is opened to young researchers interested in learning the essentials of this new field. Introductory lectures will provide them with a common background, while more specialized lectures and seminars will give an up to date panorama.
