SUMMARY:Ibrahim Nsanzineza: Quasiparticles and vortices in superconducting\
 nmicrowave resonators
CLASS:PUBLIC
DESCRIPTION:IBRAHIM NSANZINEZA\, SYRACUSE UNIVERSITY\n\nNonequilibrium quas
 iparticles and trapped magnetic flux vortices can\nsignificantly impact th
 e performance of superconducting microwave\nresonant circuits and qubits a
 t millikelvin temperatures.\nQuasiparticles result in excess loss\, reduci
 ng resonator quality\nfactors and qubit lifetimes. Vortices trapped near r
 egions of large\nmicrowave currents also contribute excess loss. However\,
  vortices\nlocated in current-free areascan actually trap quasiparticles a
 nd lead\nto a reduction in the quasiparticle loss.
