Welcome!
We are a new lab at Caltech that uses lasers to control atoms and molecules for table-top experiments in fundamental nuclear and particle physics, by using and developing techniques that also have applications to quantum information, computation, and many-body systems. There are openings for research positions and internships at all levels - undergraduate, masters, graduate, and post-doc.
If you want to know about (or already know about!) any of the following, then we definitely have something for you to work on, and you should get in touch

 The Caltech Quantum Information Association (CQIA) is a new club at Caltech that we are happy to welcome! From the website:
The association serves as a platform for members working on theory, experiment, and engineering in fields relevant to Quantum Information to exchange novel ideas and share expertise with resources. The goal is to foster strong ties and promote campus-wide multidisciplinary collaborations that lead to innovative research topics.
Check out the website for a list of events, and some recent blog posts about topological quantum computing, quantum computing in the near term, and of course our research

SURF Seminar Day!
 2018 SURFers @ Caltech - Camilla, Emily, Claire, and David. Alicia was at Yale with the DeMille Group.
     Full disclosure: some of these photos were taken back in August for summer seminar day.
8 August 2018 We were featured in Pasadena Outlook for our part in helping the Chandler School take a journey to space (without leaving the comfortable confines of Caltech...)  Pasadena Outlook, 9 August 2019 (click for larger version) 31 July 2018
