Classical and Quantum Simulations of Nuclear Dynamics - Sofia Quaglioni
Explore nuclear dynamics through 'classical' and quantum simulations in this 43-minute conference talk by Sofia Quaglioni from LLNL. Delve into the challenges of evaluating S-factors at stellar energies, combining nuclear forces derived from chiral effective field theory with ab initio methods. Discover how quantum computers offer a natural framework for simulating time-dependent scattering theory, and learn about the potential of custom gates to improve performance in quantum simulations. Gain insights into the unified treatment of bound and unbound states in structure, scattering, and reactions, as well as the extraction of energy spectra from quantum simulation signals. Understand the current state and future possibilities of quantum computing in nuclear physics research, presented as part of the Opportunities and Challenges in Few-Body Physics conference at the Kavli Institute for Theoretical Physics.
