DESCRIPTION:Superconducting Circuits for Quantum Information Science Proces
 sing\n\nMy talk will consist of an introduction to superconducting devices 
 and how they are used for quantum computation. I will start with a brief ov
 erview of superconductivity. I will then move on to superconducting circuit
 s and why they are useful for quantum information processing. I will follow
  this with an exposition of how these superconducting circuits generate the
  basic operations for quantum computing including details of how supercondu
 cting qubits are coupled.\n\n \n\n \n\nDr. David I. Santiago obtained his P
 h.D in Theoretical Physics from Stanford University in 2009. From that time
  until 2009 he worked as a postdoctoral researcher and scientific staff for
  several institituions until 2009. At that time\, David started working as 
 a consultant to government funding agencies\, helping them design research 
 programs\, decide who to fund\, and evaluate the funded scientific teams. I
 n this capacity is where David first got involved with quantum computation 
 as a lot of the programs he was involved with were the early ones who helpe
 d develop current state of the art quantum information science technologies
 . In 2016\, David came back to research joining the superconducting quantum
  processing theory team at Northrop Grumman. Since 2019\, David has been th
 e technical lead for the Advanced Quantum Testbed project at Lawrence Berke
 ley National Lab.
