Chiara will be presenting her work on "Trotterised Probabilistic Imaginary Time Evolution on a Quantum Circuit" (268) #WATOC2020

Andreea (Andreea Filip) will have a poster on "Reducing Unitary Coupled Cluster Circuit Depth by Classical Stochastic Pre-Screening" published in doi.org/10.1103/PhysRe…

Several participants of MQM 2022 are attending the 12th WATOC Congress. Here is my picture with Dr. Alex Thom from Cambridge University and Prof. Jürgen Gauss from Universität Mainz taken during one of the WATOC’s poster sessions. We met in Blacksburg, VA last week. We are now in Vancouver!

Anna Bui and Niamh's work with Thom Group Cambridge Cambridge Chemistry on electrochemical CO2 capture is now published The Journal of Physical Chemistry! pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac…

Heartiest congratulations to Andreea Filip who have just completed her PhD viva! She will be starting her Junior Research Fellowship with Peterhouse Cambridge.

Our latest #preprint with Nicholas Lee on Transcorrelated methods is now on arXiv.org: arxiv.org/abs/2301.02590 Cambridge Chemistry #compchem

Congratulations to Fabio Albertani for passing his PhD viva! To celebrate, here are some arXiv.org #preprints of his work studying Gaussian Processes for potential energy surfaces: arxiv.org/abs/2212.14699 arxiv.org/abs/2301.02172 arxiv.org/abs/2301.03853

Very happy to share our new preprint on the calculation of molecular excited states with quantum computing ! arxiv.org/abs/2305.04783 We're exploring the Folded Spectrum method. Thom Group Cambridge #compchem #QuantumComputing #quantum #ExcitedStates #preprint #VQE

Our work on hybrid configuration interaction/multireference coupled cluster QMC methods is out now in JCP! doi.org/10.1063/5.0145… #compchem Cambridge Chemistry Thom Group Cambridge

‼️LJC Virtual Discussion Seminars kickoff at 2pm @M__Simoncelli Andreea Filip Lennard-Jones Centre 1⃣ Guglielmo Mazzola A quantum computing algorithm to speed up Metropolis sampling 2⃣ Jinggang Lan Solvated electron from first principles and machine learning ljc.group.cam.ac.uk/ljc-events/dis…

Day 3 of the inaugural LJC meeting at Downing College just started with Teresa Head-Gordon Lab talking about Importance of Electrostatics and the Interfaces for Chemical Transformations. Many more giants in the field still to come, or already presented! Full program: ljc.group.cam.ac.uk/ljc-events/ina…

RTs please ! 📢 I have a fully funded #phdposition (UK students) at UCL Thomas Young Centre ➡️ ucl.ac.uk/condensed-matt… on phase behaviours of nanoscale materials. Interested in #Quantum, statistical mechanics, #ML and excited to team up with my collaborators Cambridge Chemistry ?

Latest #CompChem preprint was out on Monday, showing how to build an accurate and shallow quantum ansatz for electronic states with a little help from orbital optimisation and perfect pairing ideas arxiv.org/abs/2312.09761

Looking for a PhD ? Here is a great studentship opportunity for a PhD on Chiral Selectivity on Magnetic Surfaces in the Thom group. Have a look on and contact us to apply ! jobs.cam.ac.uk/job/44553/ #jobs #CompChem #chirality #PhD #studentship #Cambridge

Big congratulations to Kripa Panchagnula for submitting his PhD thesis! 🎉. Here's to the next chapter and all the success ahead! #PhDDone #ThomGroup #celebration

Big congratulations to Chiara Leadbeater Chiara Leadbeater and Lila Cadi Tazi Lila CT for winning the Theory RIG Best Talk & Best Poster prizes, as well as the Lenard-Jones Center Showcase Day Best Talk & Best Poster prizes! A fantastic start to the year for the group 🎉👏

New PhD opportunity in #CompChem at UCL Chemistry starting October 2025... If you're interested in developing new theoretical models for excited states, then we look forward to hearing from you. Please share widely... and Merry Christmas! findaphd.com/phds/project/n…

Our first new #CompChem for 2025 is now out! We looked at how the amount of exact (non-local) exchange changes the multiple solutions found in KS-DFT, revealing a fascinating combinatorial arrangement of localised electron spins... pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac…

Another breakthrough! We’ve developed a new method that slashes circuit depth and dramatically reduces resource requirements, bringing real-world quantum applications closer than ever: arxiv.org/abs/2411.19072

Check out our latest work on a new quantum primitive to compute scalar products with phase information, with a reduced circuit depth - preprint available! 😊 arxiv.org/abs/2411.19072 Thom Group Cambridge Quantinuum Cambridge Chemistry
