Particle Production, Equilibration, and Quantum Recurrences from Classical Fields

Iván Cuntín, Wenyang Qian, Bin Wu

We investigate particle production from classical fields, a phenomenon central to the pre-equilibrium dynamics of relativistic heavy-ion collisions and the reheating epoch of the e…

Quantum simulating multi-particle processes in high energy nuclear physics: dijet production and color (de)coherence

João Barata, Meijian Li, Wenyang Qian +2

Hard scattering events in high-energy collisions produce highly virtual partons that subsequently fragment into collimated hadronic cascades. When such partonic showers evolve in a…

Quantum simulation of baryon scattering in SU(2) lattice gauge theory

João Barata, Juan Hormaza, Zhong-Bo Kang +1

We present a first real-time study of hadronic scattering in a -dimensional SU(2) lattice gauge theory with fundamental fermions using tensor-network techniques. Working in…

Quantum simulation of real-time current correlators and DIS-inspired observables in the Schwinger model

Kazuki Ikeda, Zhong-Bo Kang, Dmitri E. Kharzeev +1

Hadronic tensors encode the nonperturbative structure of hadrons probed in deep inelastic scattering (DIS), yet their direct evaluation requires real-time evolution that presents a…
