State preparation and detection for quantum simulation of particle collisions

Federica Maria Surace, Sary Bseiso, John Preskill

Simulating the real-time dynamics of particle collisions is a promising application of quantum simulators, because classical methods such as tensor networks struggle to capture the…

Quantum simulation of bubble nucleation across a quantum phase transition

De Luo, Federica Maria Surace, Arinjoy De +8

The liquid-vapor transition is a classic example of a discontinuous (first-order) phase transition. Such transitions underlie many phenomena in cosmology, nuclear and particle phys…

String-Breaking Dynamics in Quantum Adiabatic and Diabatic Processes

Federica Maria Surace, Alessio Lerose, Or Katz +10

Confinement prohibits isolation of color charges, e.g., quarks, in nature via a process called string breaking: the separation of two charges results in an increase in the energy o…

Observation of string-breaking dynamics in a quantum simulator

Arinjoy De, Alessio Lerose, De Luo +10

Spontaneous particle-pair formation is a fundamental phenomenon in nature. It can, for example, appear when the potential energy between two particles increases with separation, as…

Simulating Meson Scattering on Spin Quantum Simulators

Elizabeth R. Bennewitz, Brayden Ware, Alexander Schuckert +11

Studying high-energy collisions of composite particles, such as hadrons and nuclei, is an outstanding goal for quantum simulators. However, preparation of hadronic wave packets has…

Trimer states with topological order in Rydberg atom arrays

Giacomo Giudice, Federica Maria Surace, Hannes Pichler +1

Trimers are defined as two adjacent edges on a graph. We study the quantum states obtained as equal-weight superpositions of all trimer coverings of a lattice, with the constraint…

Dissipative Floquet Dynamics: from Steady State to Measurement Induced Criticality in Trapped-ion Chains

Piotr Sierant, Giuliano Chiriacò, Federica M. Surace +5

Quantum systems evolving unitarily and subject to quantum measurements exhibit various types of non-equilibrium phase transitions, arising from the competition between unitary evol…
