Quantum computation and spin physics (invited)

Abstract
A brief review is given of the physical implementation of quantum computation within spin systems or other two-state quantum systems. The importance of the controlled-NOT or quantum XOR gate as the fundamental primitive operation of quantum logic is emphasized. Recent developments in the use of quantum entanglement to built error-robust quantum states, and the simplest protocol for quantum error correction, are discussed.Comment: 21 pages, Latex, 3 eps figures, prepared for the Proceedings of the Annual MMM Meeting, November, 1996, to be published in J.
