[Workshop] Dynamics and control of classical and quantum systems

Quantum technologies, such as quantum computers and simulators, have the potential to revolutionize our computing speed, communications security, and measurement accuracy. The power of quantum technology relies on two key but fragile resources: quantum coherence and entanglement. This promising field faces a major question: how can we design machines that exploit quantum properties on a large scale and effectively protect them from external disturbances (decoherence), which tend to eliminate the quantum advantage?

Making a system robust and stable in the face of external disturbances is one of the fundamental problems in control system theory. This workshop brings together experimentalists in quantum physics and technologies, and researchers in control theory. The aim is to study the role of control engineering in emerging quantum technologies. This workshop is supported by ERC Q-feedback.
