Chris Fuchs writes in with some good news about the APS march meeting and quantum information science talks.\u00a0 In total there were 359 talks submitted to the GQI topical group<\/a> this year, and increase from the 256 talks last year.\u00a0 This means that next year the topical group will get an extra invited session.\u00a0 Woot!<\/p>\n

More details from Chris:<\/p>\n

\n

Just to highlight the details of the focus sessions, the submissions they got were:<\/p>\n

Superconducting Qubits \u2013 75<\/p>\n

Semiconducting Qubits \u2013 63<\/p>\n

Quantum Information for Quantum Foundations \u2013 58 (or at least that\u2019s the number I\u2019ll claim for that session from the various sorting categories)<\/p>\n

Quantum Optics with Superconducting Circuits \u2013 32<\/p>\n

Advances in Ion Trap Quantum Computation \u2013 12<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Chris has also made a handy list of invited talks, both in GQI, and those of GQI general interest:<\/p>\n

Looks like a fantastic lineup.\u00a0 The fact that there are so many invited talks outside of GQI that are quantum related is a testament to the field (of course cynics will say it is a testament to hype and funding, but who listens to cynics anyway?)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
