Hello fellow SFIers!
Hello fellow SFIers!
My name is John. I'm a grad student in the UC Davis Physics/Computational Science and Engineering group studying entanglement in quantum automata. When not at work, I enjoy being addicted to music. I'm quite excited about the program and I look forward to meeting each of you. Hopefully there will be some time to get out and enjoy a little of the scenery as well.

30pxl Hello fellow SFIers! My name is John. I'm a grad student in the UC Davis Physics/Computational Science and Engineering group studying entanglement in quantum automata. When not at work, I enjoy being addicted to music. I'm quite excited about the program and I look forward to meeting each of you. Hopefully there will be some time to get out and enjoy a little of the scenery as well.

Interests

Given the novel features of quantum mechanics (superposition, entanglement,..) what are the novel manifestations of these in observable processes? More specifically, I've been trying to understand how entanglement augments properties of these small quantum systems. It takes a fair amount of experimental effort to produce a nice clean pair of entangled electrons. What do you get for it?

Expertise

A broad physics and mathematics background. Maybe someday will claim expertise in quantum measurement.

What do you hope to get out of the CSSS?

It is a great opportunity to meet creative thinkers from a variety of backgrounds - and learn from them. I am curious to hear the various different angles (math/ecology/economics/neuro/+) taken on common ideas.

Projects
