Quantum simulation of high-energy physics (HEP) was one of the original motivations for the development of quantum computers and remains a source of ongoing proposals for achieving quantum advantage. As experimental platforms grow in size and fidelity and classical algorithms near their limits, novel quantum‑information tools are poised to revolutionize how we simulate fundamental interactions and dynamical processes in quantum field theories.
In this workshop, we aim to bring together experts in different aspects of Quantum Information Science (QIS) to explore novel applications of cutting-edge methods, such as tensor networks and quantum simulation, in the context of HEP and nuclear physics. The main goals are:
-
Advance real‑time QFT dynamics.
-
Explore out‑of‑equilibrium physics.
-
Tackle strongly interacting many‑body systems.
-
Enhance experimental measurements.
By fostering interdisciplinary dialogue through invited talks and discussions, our QIS‑HENP workshop will highlight new research directions at the interface of QIS and high‑energy/nuclear physics. We anticipate that conversations among participants with diverse backgrounds will spark collaborative initiatives and lay a solid foundation for future applications of QIS techniques to fundamental problems in our field.
This event belongs to the workshop series organized by the Central China Center for Nuclear Theory (C3NT, c3nt.ccnu.edu.cn).
Additional workshop information, including the agenda, will be published soon.
