Request access to Xanadu Cloud (X8)

Dear Xanadu Team,

I’m a graduate student from Peking University currently conducting research in continuous-variable (CV) quantum metrology. As part of my current work, I’m investigating phase estimation protocols using coherent or vacuum states and designing Gaussian quantum circuits involving displacement and rotation gates to measure an unknown phase shift (θ) with high precision.

I am very interested in running these CV circuits on Xanadu’s X8 photonic hardware to benchmark my simulation results with real experimental data. Although I understand the X8 device is limited in scale, it would still be valuable for validating low-photon-number protocols and gaining hands-on experience with CV hardware.

I would greatly appreciate the opportunity to access the X8 device through the Xanadu Cloud. Please let me know if there are any additional steps or information required.

Thank you very much for your support!

Best regards,
