Emanuel (Manny) Knill, a mathematician in the NIST Mathematical and
Computational Sciences Division in Boulder, has been elected
a fellow of the American Physical Society (APS) "for
fundamental contributions to our understanding of the
control and manipulation of quantum systems, including
quantum error correction, determination of tolerable error
rates, and linear optics quantum computing."
