SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Quantum Research Institute Seminar | Engineering Robust Quantum Systems with Quantum Control
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nQuantum devices could perform some informational tasks with much better performances than classical systems\, with profound implications for cryptography\, chemistry\, material science\, and many areas of physics. However\, to reach this goal we need to control large quantum systems\, where the many-body dynamics might scramble the quantum information\, heating up the system to its thermal state. \nThere are then two key questions: \n- How does a closed quantum system thermalize (thus losing its “quantum power”)? \n- How can we preserve quantum information in the presence of strong interactions\, disorder\, and noise? \nUsing spins as an exemplary experimental system\, I will show how to choreograph their dynamics in order to prevent the system from heating up\, even in the presence of strong interactions among spins. I will further show how we can turn disorder from a source of noise to a tool that enables probing the system at the angstrom level. An exemplary application is the creation and characterization of a robust time crystal. \n\nBio:\nPaola Cappellaro is Professor of Nuclear Science and Engineering at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and a member of the Research Lab for Electronics\, where she leads the Quantum Engineering Group. She received her Ph.D in 2006 from MIT and she then joined Harvard University as a postdoctoral associate in the Institute for Theoretical Atomic\, Molecular and Optical Physics (ITAMP)\, before going back to MIT as a faculty in 2009.\nProf. Cappellaro is an expert in NMR\, ESR\, coherent control and quantum information science. She is a specialist in spin-based quantum information processing and precision measurements in the solid state. With collaborators\, she developed the concept and first demonstrations of NV-diamond magnetometers. Cappellaro's major contributions have been in developing control techniques for nuclear and electronic spin qubits\, including NV-diamond\, inspired by NMR techniques and quantum information ideas. The goal is the realization of practical quantum nano-devices\, such as sensors and simulators\, more powerful than their classical counterparts\, as well as the acquisition of a deeper knowledge of quantum systems and their environment. Her work has been recently recognized by the Young Investigator Award from the Air Force Office of Scientific Research and a Merkator Fellowship.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Michelle Hinojosa: Logcabins
DESCRIPTION:Stamps Gallery commissioned Michelle Hinojosa (MFA\, 2023) to reimagine the pillars on Division Street that flank the Gallery. Hinojosa has created log cabin quilts to adorn the columns in front of Stamps Gallery. The log cabin quilts traditionally represent the warm hearth at the center of a home. This installation reflects on the interplay between home\, placemaking\, labor\, and intergenerational memories of migration. Rather than quilting cotton designed to softly embrace the body\, these quilts are sewn from outdoor grade\, UV-resistant polyester. The quilt is an ode to Hinojosa’s grandmother who illegally crossed the US/Mexico border holding her babies and her quilts. As she and her family drove across the United States to work in the fields of the Salinas Valley\, the quilts offered a safe space for her and her family. Hinojosa celebrates their resilience to her grandmother and elders while also drawing attention to precarity and violence experienced by refugees and migrants crossing the US-Mexico border in our present today.\nArtist’s bio:\nMichelle Inez Hinojosa is an artist\, educator\, and researcher whose work is informed by Indigenous and Latine/x/a/o studies. Born and raised in Texas\, she earned her Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in both drawing and painting and art education with a minor in art history at the University of North Texas. She holds a Master of Fine Arts from the University of Michigan. She works with quilting\, bead weaving\, embroidery\, jewelry\, transparent film installations\, painting\, ceramics\, and sculpture to honor and explore the history of migration in her family and humanize the current discourse around migration still occurring at the southern border. Alongside her artwork she maintains a writing practice to re-story\, re-make\, and re-claim the often subordinated narratives of Latinx\, Chicanx\, Mexican\, and Texican peoples. \n\nRecently\, Hinojosa was named an inaugural Creative Careers Artist in Residence at the University of Michigan\, she has also attended residencies at Mildred's Lane (Pennsylvania)\, Anderson Ranch Art Center (Aspen\, CO) and The Cedars Union (Dallas\, TX).

SUMMARY:Reception / Open House:Scope 3 Emissions Project Open House
DESCRIPTION:The Scope 3 Emissions Project Open House is your chance to get involved in the University of Michigan's efforts to tackle indirect emissions. We're working to improve our data on Scope 3 emissions\, develop systems to track and visualize this data\, and identify strategies to reduce our impact. See Related Links for more information about this effort.\n\nWe need your ideas and feedback to make this a success! At the open house\, you'll learn about the current initiative\, share your thoughts\, help prioritize actions\, and discuss practical steps we can take now while we work on our long-term goals. Snacks will be available! Join us to make a difference and help shape the future of sustainability on campus.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CJS Noon Lecture Series | The Hidden Diversity of the Japanese People: Deconstructing Japan’s Nation-Building Process
DESCRIPTION:Please note: This lecture will be held in person in room 1010 Weiser Hall and virtually via Zoom. This webinar is free and open to the public\, but registration is required. Once you've registered\, the joining information will be sent to your email. Register for the Zoom webinar at: https://myumi.ch/23XWZ\n   \n   When leaders in the Meiji period were forging the nation state\, they created the concept of the *Yamato minzoku* (people) in order to justify imperial rule. After World War II\, a discourse that Japan had been a homogeneous country since ancient times and that this homogeneity was spurring contemporaneous economic growth gained traction. Prof. Okamoto would like to challenge this discourse by focusing on several of the “non-Yamato peoples”\, such as the Emishi of the North-East\, the Kumaso of Southern Kyushu\, and the Izumo of the north side of the Chugoku region\, in order to demonstrate how the prevailing contemporary consciousness of Japan’s national identity relied upon denying the internal diversity of Japanese society.\n   \n   Masataka Okamoto was born and grew up in Izumo. He received a Ph.D. in Social Science in 2000 from the Hitotsubashi University\, Tokyo\, Japan. Since the end of the 1980s\, the focus of his work has been the protection and promotion of the rights of ethnic minorities. He studied at the Capital Normal University and the Central University for Nationalities in Beijing\, China for eighteen months from 1991 to 1993. He served as the secretary for IMADR (International Movement against All Forms of Discrimination and Racism) from 1993 to 1995 and was the SMJ (Solidarity Network with Migrants Japan) vice secretary general from 2004 to 2014. He joined the staff of Fukuoka Prefectural University in 2000. He also joined the College of Ethnic Studies at San Francisco State University as a visiting scholar from April 2008 to March 2009.\n   \n   This lecture is made possible with the generous support of the U.S. Department of Education Title VI grant.\n\nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us at umcjs@umich.edu. Please be aware that advance notice is necessary as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange.
