Accurate mapping of multilevel Rydberg atoms on interacting spin-$1/2$ particles for the quantum simulation of Ising models

Sylvain de Léséleuc, Sebastian Weber, Vincent Lienhard +4

We study a system of atoms that are laser-driven to $n{D}_{3/2}$ Rydberg states and assess how accurately they can be mapped onto spin-$1/2$ particles for the quantum simulation of a…
