Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL) established the Quantum Cloud Access Project (QCAP) with the New Mexico Consortium (NMC) in order to provide a direct conduit for LANL researchers to experiment on commercial quantum systems. The first couple of years of the project have primarily focused on analog quantum systems, including D-Wave's Advantage2 platform, and QuEra's Aquila quantum computer. We are now aggressively moving into fault-tolerant, error-corrected, digital systems. Concurrently, the NMC's mission is built on education and community outreach across New Mexico. In this talk, we will cover three platforms available to you, the QCSS students: D-Wave's Advantage2, QuEra's Aquila, and Quantinuum's System Model H1. For each platform, we will cover the underlying architecture, how to gain access, and some toy model problems. (Other vendors are available but will not be covered.) Time permitting, we will then go through a sketch proof of the Kitaev-Feynman clock construction establishing polynomial equivalence between the adiabatic model and the standard circuit model of quantum computation.
