Seminal papers in quantum physics, quantum optics, and information processing

About the course

In this course, we will study and discuss a series of seminal papers in quantum physics, quantum optics, and information processing. The course is meant to help us absorb more deeply the breakthroughs in understanding and in experiment on which our efforts today build. The series is organized as a PhD course. Approval by individual examiners is required to count the course in ISPs. Everyone is welcome to attend on a session-by-session basis. Each session consists of a 45-60 minute presentation from two students on one or more papers selected from the list of seminal papers.  Active participation will be required from everyone in the class. Paper suggestions are welcome at any time by email to nils.engelsen@chalmers.se.
