NMR and the QIP
• Experimental demonstration of QIP procedures, including quantum
protocols, algorithms, quantum simulations etc.;
• Development of many useful tools for QIP, including quantum protocols,
algorithms, dynamic decoupling schemes, among others;
• NMR is also an excellent test bench for studies on open quantum
systems:
– efficient implementation and manipulation of the quantum states
(excellent control of the unitary transformations coming from the
radiofrequency pulses);
– presence of real environments, which can be described by phase
damping and generalized amplitude damping channels;
Quantum Computation
Entanglement
?
• In certain schemes of quantum computation where the quantum
bits are affected by noise, there seems to be a speed-up over
classical scenarios even in the presence of negligibly small or
vanishing entanglement.

Correlations Physical Review Letters, v. 104, p.080501, 2010.
• A possible explanation for the speed up would be quantum
correlations different for entanglement.

Probing Quantum Correlations
What is required for probing discord and their degradation upon
interaction with the environment?
• To prepare states with different amounts of QCs .
• To perform a reliable read-out of the final states.
• To have a good description and characterization of the system
relaxation.
NMR has all that!!!!
