Symmetrically Threaded Superconducting Quantum Interference Devices As Next Generation Kerr-cat Qubits

Kavli Affiliate: Ke Wang | First 5 Authors: Bibek Bhandari, Bibek Bhandari, , , | Summary: We theoretically explore an alternative circuit for Kerr-cat qubits based on symmetrically threaded Superconducting Quantum Interference Devices (SQUID). The Symmetrically Threaded SQUIDs (STS) architecture employs a simplified flux-pumped design that suppresses two-photon dissipation, a dominant loss mechanism in high-Kerr […]

Symmetrically Threaded SQUIDs As Next Generation Kerr-cat Qubits

Kavli Affiliate: Ke Wang | First 5 Authors: Bibek Bhandari, Irwin Huang, Ahmed Hajr, Kagan Yanik, Bingcheng Qing | Summary: Kerr-cat qubits are bosonic qubits with autonomous protection against bit-flips. They have been studied widely using driven Superconducting Nonlinear Asymmetric Inductive eLement (SNAIL) oscillators. We theoretically investigate an alternate circuit for the Kerr-cat qubit, namely […]

Large Neighborhood Prioritized Search for Combinatorial Optimization with Answer Set Programming

Kavli Affiliate: Naoyuki Tamura | Summary:We propose Large Neighborhood Prioritized Search (LNPS) for solving combinatorial optimization problems in Answer Set Programming (ASP). LNPS is a metaheuristic that starts with an initial solution and then iteratively tries to find better solutions by alternately destroying and prioritized searching for a current solution. Due to the variability of […]

The Empirical and Radiative Transfer Hybrid (EaRTH) Disk Model: Merging Analyses of Protoplanetary Dust Disk Mineralogy and Structure

Kavli Affiliate: David Principe | Summary:Our understanding of how exoplanets form and evolve relies on analyses of both the mineralogy of protoplanetary disks and their detailed structures; however, these key complementary aspects of disks are usually studied separately. We present initial results from a hybrid model that combines the empirical characterization of the mineralogy of […]
