Superconducting

The superconducting module provides convenient methods to simulate and optimize superconducting systems.

To run a simulation or optimization, begin by describing the system using the classes below representing the components and interactions in the system. For example to create a superconducting transmon use boulderopal.superconducting.Transmon. If any Hamiltonian term is optimizable, use a boulderopal.superconducting.OptimizableCoefficient class to describe it. Then pass the classes to either boulderopal.superconducting.simulate or boulderopal.superconducting.optimize depending on whether you want to run a simulation or an optimization.

For a quick introduction, see the Simulate and optimize dynamics with the superconducting systems module tutorial.
