20180413 Quantum metrology with spin

“Quantum metrology with spin” Dr. ChanYong Hwang Quantum Technology Institute, KRISS Apr. 13 (Fri.), 04:00 PM E6-2. 1st fl. #1323 Abstract: Spin angular momentum is one of two types of angular momentum in quantum mechanics. Though its introduction has been proposed more than 100 years, it is still considered as an abstruse quantum property not amenable to physical explanation. Staring from the overview on the origin of spin angular momentum,…
