I’ve (finally?) moved my website from the Unviersity of Surrey’s personal account server to github, where I’ve built it on top of the “academic pages” style. I must admit, I find it easier to write the bare HTML of my simple previous version of my professional home page, but this seems to be the future. I intend to use this “blog” facility for research-related news stories. See the blogger link in the side panel for my real nuclear physics blog!

Congratulations to Lance Li, my PhD student on the publication of his first paper. It shows how the quantum imaginary time evolution operator can be used to solve nuclear density functional theory on a quantum computer. Physical Review C published the paper today at Phys. Rev. C. 109, 044322 (2024). It’s open access so viewable by all.

Last week I and many of my group attended the Institute of Physics joint High Energy Physics, Astroparticle Physics, and Nuclear Physics Conference in Liverpool. I was honoured to be asked to give a plenary talk to the whole conference on the subject of quantum computing in nuclear structure. My colleague in the UK nuclear theoretical physics community, Jacek Dobaczewski from the University of York, took this picture of me as I talked:
