SUMMARY:Quantum Information Processing with Spins in Cold Atomic Ensembles
CLASS:PUBLIC
DESCRIPTION:IVAN DEUTSCH\, UNIVERSITY OF NEW MEXICO\n\nAtomic spins are nat
 ural carriers of quantum information given their\nlong coherence time and 
 our capabilities to coherently control and\nmeasure them with magneto-opti
 cal fields. In this seminar I will\ndescribe two paradigms for quantum inf
 ormation processing with\nensembles of spin in cold atoms. The strong elec
 tric dipole-dipole\ninteractions arising when atoms are excited to high-ly
 ing Rydberg\nstates is a powerful method for designing entangling interact
 ions in\nneutral atoms.
