Abstract: 

We are currently in the midst of the second quantum revolution, in which we can identify and control a single quantum bit for the first time in human history. The development of quantum computers is undergoing intensive global competition, with China taking a leading position. Applying quantum computing and algorithms is an emerging field in high energy physics. However, we are still in the era of Noisy Intermediate Scale Quantum (NISQ) computers. Applications of quantum hardware have not yet entered a practical stage, but quantum-inspired algorithms have begun to provide innovation. In this seminar, I will present some examples of applying quantum algorithms to reconstruction in high-energy physics.

Brief CV: 

大川 (OKAWA) 英希 (Hideki)，Professor at Institute of High Energy Physics (IHEP), Chinese Academy of Sciences. He obtained his bachelor and PhD at the University of Tokyo in 2004 and 2010 respectively. Between 2010-2014, he worked as a postdoc at University of California, Irvine and then at Brookhaven National Laboratory in the USA. In 2014, he joined University of Tsukuba in Japan as an international tenure-track assistant professor (特聘国际助理教授) and was tenured in 2018. In 2019, he joined Fudan University as a University Key Position Professor (校聘关键岗位教授) through a national young talent program. He joined IHEP in 2022. Main research area is TeV-scale collider physics (ATLAS, CEPC), machine learning and quantum computing applications.
