The for the best overall performance in the first year examinations was awarded to Michal Moravec for 2015-16 by Mary Pettifer and David Leadley, Head of Department.

Today, a picture taken by a camera on a typical smartphone can consist of more than 10 million pixels. This is the reality of modern-day cameras and imaging. The ability of record millions of pixels simultaneously will therefore be expected to be a necessary part of any future imaging technology as a matter of course. And that includes quantum enhanced strategies. Measuring (or estimating) multiple parameters simultaneously, however, is one of the fundamental limitations of quantum mechanics. It is what sets quantum mechanics apart from classical physics. What then is the future of quantum enhanced imaging ?

Congratulations to David Leadley on receiving his 20 years long service award. David’s contribution was recognised at a special awards ceremony held on 11 October 2016.

The LHCb collaboration has searched for signals of a new particle, recently claimed by the D0 collaboration. Finding no signal, limits are set which are apparently at odds with the D0 claim.
