Quickstart

pyPalace workflows are script- or notebook-based. A typical workflow consists of:

  1. Building a Palace configuration using pyPalace objects

  2. Running the simulation locally, or on an HPC.

  3. Extracting results and performing quantum analysis (e.g., LOM, EPR)

Minimal Electrostatic + LOM Workflow

A complete working example is provided here:

Examples/example_02_electrostatics_LOM/example02_notebook_TransmonCross.ipynb

This example demonstrates:

  • building an electrostatic Palace configuration

  • running a simulation locally

  • extracting the capacitance matrix

  • performing Lumped Oscillator Modeling (LOM) analysis

This workflow produces a capacitance matrix and corresponding LOM-derived qubit Hamiltonian parameters.

The required mesh file is included in the repository.

Before running the example, update:

  • path_to_palace to your local Palace executable

To run the notebook:

cd Examples/example_02_electrostatics_LOM
jupyter notebook

Alternatively, run the script version:

cd Examples/example_02_electrostatics_LOM
python example_02_TransmonCross.py
