I participated in Gordon Research Conference (GRC) from August 6–11 , 2023 on topic of “Quantum Control of Light and Matter” organized in Newport, Rhodes Island, United States. This conference focused on advancing the frontiers of science through presenting cutting-edge research and interaction among scientists of all career stage.

In GRC 2023 , I also got opportunity to present a poster on my experimental work about generation of 4 80 nm stable pulse laser for high-fidelity ultrafast excitation of atoms to Rydberg states. I considered GRC as a great platform for discussion and sharing about my work. In GRC, I found interesting lectures about quantum metrology using atoms and superconducting qubit . I really enjoyed lectures and this also helps me to learn new techniques and physics that c an be done with neutral atom platform for quantum computation and simulation.

This venue is an island so it is highly recommended to go nearby beach for fresh air and really amazing sunset views. I went to GRC 2023 with other members of Ohmori group (family), so had lots of fun in beach. Unfortunately, I cannot enjoy swimming because I am still taking beginner swimming lesson at Aeon Okazaki gym. I enjoyed lobster which is popular in that area, but, to be honest I really miss Japanese food during my 1 week stay in USA.

I want to thanks IMS, Sokendai and Moonshot funding agency for providing me this opportunity to visit USA and explore the research work and also explore the island. I always follow one sanskrit quote “Karmanye vadhikaraste Ma Phaleshu Kadachana” – Perform your duty without attachme n t to outcome. I am thankful to Prof. Ohmori, Dr. Sylvain de Léséleuc, Dr. Takafumi Tomita and Dr. Yuki Torii Chew (Chew sama ) for continuous and strong  support.

I joined Prof. Kenji Ohmori's group in 2018 October as a Ph.D. student. Our group is building a platform for ultrafast quantum computation and simulation using interactions between cold Rydberg atoms.
