National Quantum Initiative

2/18/20 Lykken | All Engineers Retreat6

A FOA to establish up to five DOE NQI

centers was issued Jan 10

Goal: Produce high impact quantum science and technology results in

the near term, while building capacity for HEP needs in the long term

Fermilab is engaging with the National Quantum Initiative in ways

appropriate to our role as the main HEP lab:

• Focus on the science

• Exploit existing Fermilab expertise and infrastructure

• Keep Fermilab activities aligned to HEP program needs

• Engage partners who already have leading quantum expertise

• Find out where HEP can have impact on QIS, including tech transfer

• Act as a gateway and hub for the larger HEP community to engage

with quantum science and technology
