SUMMARY:Catelani: Quasiparticle effects in superconducting qubits
CLASS:PUBLIC
DESCRIPTION:GIANLUIGI CATELANI\, PETER GRÜNBERG INSTITUTE\, GERMANY\n\nSup
 erconducting qubits based on Josephson junctions are a promising\nplatform
  for quantum computation\, reaching quality factors of over one\nmillion. 
 Such high quality factors enable the investigation of\ndecoherence mechani
 sms with high accuracy. An intrinsic decoherence\nprocess originates from 
 the coupling between the qubit degree of\nfreedom\nand the quasiparticles 
 that tunnel across Josephson junctions. In this\ntalk I will review the ge
 neral theory of quasiparticle effects\, valid
