On June 27-28, Sorbonne Université and the Quantum Networks Team at Laboratoire Kastler Brossel will organise the “NonGauss Workshop 2022”. It will take place in the very centre of Paris, on the Sorbonne Campus. We are looking forward to welcome you here for two days of talks, lab tours and scientific discussions!

About the Workshop

The workshop is organised in the framework of the NONGAUSS "Twinning in non-Gaussian Physics for Quantum Technology" H2020 Twinning project between Palacky University, Sorbonne University, and Technical University of Denmark. The objective of the project is to significantly strengthen the tools and methods of non-Gaussian quantum technology. For further information, please see the project website: https://www.prf.upol.cz/nongauss/

Topics and confirmed speakers

This workshop will cover diverse activities in the field of quantum optics and quantum information technologies, ranging from quantum state engineering to waveguide-QED and superconducting qubits. It will combine talks from internationally-recognized experts in their respective fields, and students and postdoctoral researchers. General roundtables will be also organized about EU fellowships and grants.

We are very pleased to welcome the confirmed speakers:

• Virginia D’Auria, InPhyni-Nice Université, A plug-n-play approach to CV experiments

• Jérémy Berroir, LKB-Sorbonne Université, Optical switching with cold atoms trapped around a nanofiber

• David Barral, LKB-Sorbonne Université, Entanglement in unconditional and conditional non-Gaussian states: triple photons and photon-subtracted states

• Tiffany Bridges, University of Geneva, Integrated Photonics for Quantum Repeaters

• Gabriel Hétet, LPENS-Ecole Normale Supérieure, Spin-mechanics with trapped diamond particles

• Frederik Isaksen, DTU Copenhaguen, Mechanical cooling and squeezing using optimal measurement and feedback

• Zaki Leghtas, LPENS-Ecole Normale Supérieure, Protecting quantum information in superconducting circuits

• Alisa Manukhova, Olomouc University, Nonclassical interference effects produced by linear and nonlinear quantum nondemolition gates between atoms and mechanics

• Beatriz Olmos-Sanchez, Tuebingen University, Interaction signatures and non-Gaussian photon states from a strongly driven atomic ensemble coupled to a nanophotonic waveguide

• Ilya Radko, DTU Copenhaguen, Studying solid-state quantum emitters by photon statistics

• Polina Sharapova, University of Paderborn, Multimode nonlinear interferometers

• Lukas Slodicka, Olomouc University, Quantum non-Gaussianity of atomic fluorescence and atomic motion

Venue

The workshop will be located on the SU campus, in the very center of Paris. The campus entrance is at 4 Place Jussieu, in the fifth district (Subway: Jussieu station)

It will start on Monday 27th at 9 am and end on Tuesday 28th at 5 pm. Part of Tuesday afternoon will be dedicated to lab tours on the SU campus.

Coffee breaks, lunches and Monday workshop dinner are included. While there is no registration fee, you are however required to book and pay for accommodation yourself. The participants can find many accommodations in the SU campus P. et M. Curie neighbourhood.
