Abstract: CERN has recently started its Quantum Technology Initiative in order to investigate the use of quantum technologies in High Energy Physics (HEP). A three-years roadmap and research programme has been defined in collaboration with the HEP and quantum-technology research communities. In this context, initial pilot projects have been set up at CERN in collaboration with other HEP institutes worldwide on Quantum Computing and Quantum Machine Learning in particular. These projects, are studying basic prototypes of quantum algorithms, which are being evaluated by LHC experiments for different types of workloads. This talk will provide an overview of recent results obtained by the different studies, including applications in areas ranging from accelerator beams optimization to data analysis and classification.
Note: The seminar will be by Zoom, and will be broadcast at the seminar room.
Physics Colloquium

Abstract: Flavor Physics is witnessing a golden era. This is being driven (mainly) by experimental progress, which has led to measurements of processes which are very rare in the Standard Model and, thus, sensitive probes of New Physics lying at very high-energy scales. In my talk I will review the most interesting developments in Flavor Physics occurring in the last decade. In particular I will review the status of the field focusing in the so-called flavor anomalies and will discuss the connections of Flavor Physics to other areas such as collider physics and astroparticle physics.
