Vasilii Vadimov @vvadimov.bsky.social · 02/09/2026I could not even fathom how different might be versions 1.0.0 and 1.0.2 of the same software 000
Vasilii Vadimov @vvadimov.bsky.social · 21/08/2026Til that Ubuntu got two package managers since ages ago. Holy moly 000
Vasilii Vadimov @vvadimov.bsky.social · 18/08/2026Peer review feels totally different if you're not interested where or even whether you paper gets published. You just indirectly force a couple of people to read and discuss your work. 011
Vasilii Vadimov @vvadimov.bsky.social · 13/08/2026Spotted quantum tyres in Amsterdam @quantuminthings.bsky.social 1111
Vasilii Vadimov @vvadimov.bsky.social · 07/08/2026Got this from @scipost.bsky.social editorial. Too bad I made quite a bit of changes. 010
Vasilii Vadimov @vvadimov.bsky.social · 01/07/2026Heh, started to receive invitations to review PRL submissions only after I decided to leave academia. 010
Vasilii Vadimov @vvadimov.bsky.social · 27/04/2026My first single-author paper! I prove spectral convergence of finite-dimensional approximations of HEOM provided a proper truncation scheme is used. arxiv.org/abs/2604.22568arxiv.orgOn truncations of hierarchical equations of motion for finite-dimensional systemsWe study truncations of hierarchical equations of motion (HEOM) for finite-dimensional open quantum systems. We prove that for finite-dimensional approximations constructed with a Schur-complement typ... 140

Vasilii Vadimov @vvadimov.bsky.social · 17/03/2026Time to brag! Last autumn we published a theoretical paper on design of a microwave quantum heat engine. And here comes the experiment arxiv.org/abs/2603.15355arxiv.orgAutonomous quantum heat engineQuantum heat engines provide attractive means in quantum thermodynamics for studying the fundamentals of the flow of heat and work. Previous experimental implementations of heat engines operating at t... 111
Vasilii Vadimov @vvadimov.bsky.social · 05/03/2026My colleague Tuomas gave a talk on experimental study quantum heat engines today at Physics Days 010
Vasilii Vadimov @vvadimov.bsky.social · 24/02/2026Enjoying the last months of illusory academic freedom. So, working on a bit more mathy stuff than usually. 130

Vasilii Vadimov @vvadimov.bsky.social · 15/01/2026Started a blog vanliggubbe.github.io Going to post there some technical problems I have encountered and (not) solved during my researchvanliggubbe.github.ioHomeSeally physicist 020
Vasilii Vadimov @vvadimov.bsky.social · 09/08/2025Presented a poster on the quoted work. The session was quite intense, a lot of people expressed their interest. The best was the question "This has all been done in classical work by Schön, what's new here?" #LT30Bilbao 020
Vasilii Vadimov @vvadimov.bsky.social · 08/08/2025Wanted to catch two guys at #LT30Bilbao to discuss some physics stuff. Was lucky to find them both at once when they were talking to each other 010
Vasilii Vadimov @vvadimov.bsky.social · 12/06/2025And my proposal didn't go through. The only fun thing about it is that one of the reviewers is my mutual subscriber here. 020
Vasilii Vadimov @vvadimov.bsky.social · 10/04/2025Jo[sephson]Jo[nction]'s bizarre adventure: the Cooper pair is unbreakable. Or is it?.. arxiv.org/abs/2504.06877 020
Vasilii Vadimov @vvadimov.bsky.social · 27/03/2025My grad colleague wrote a masterpiece in the draft of his paper 030
Vasilii Vadimov @vvadimov.bsky.social · 07/03/2025Finally, got accepted in PRResearch without any additional review. During the long fight for PRX the paper changed a lot from it's original submission version, hopefully to the best. 140

This new policy aims to make US research better accessible to its current strategic partners. 1373
Vasilii Vadimov @vvadimov.bsky.social · 04/03/2025Ooph, that was a long trip. First a conference in Obergurgl, then a visit to collaborators at the University of Ulm, a seminar talk at the University of Augsburg and finally a seminar talk and a workshop at Paris-Saclay university. A photo of frogs doing quantum jumps for attention! 040
Vasilii Vadimov @vvadimov.bsky.social · 20/02/2025Presenting a poster at #QuSiED on the work which was rejected from PRX just a couple of days ago! 020

Vasilii Vadimov @vvadimov.bsky.social · 18/01/2025Am I wrong or the car should look stretched when it comes, not when it leaves? 010
Vasilii Vadimov @vvadimov.bsky.social · 07/01/2025Finally, I've finished writing the grant proposal and can switch to doing research. 040
Vasilii Vadimov @vvadimov.bsky.social · 04/12/2024Such a pity it's not a quantum result. So let's make a quantum sofa problem and solve it! First, I've formulated the problem this way: prepare a wave package which reflects back from the corner as little as possible. 🧵 1111
Vasilii Vadimov @vvadimov.bsky.social · 30/11/2024Got sick of writing a grant application... So I started solving one of the planned tasks. What's the worst, I think I've solved it. 020
