Simulating One-Dimensional Quantum Chromodynamics on a Quantum Computer

Join a Qiskit Seminar Series presentation where Associate Professor Christine Muschik explores the groundbreaking simulation of one-dimensional quantum chromodynamics on quantum computers, focusing on real-time evolutions of tetraquarks and pentaquarks. Discover how quantum computing tackles previously unsolvable problems in quantum chromodynamics (QCD), particularly in cases where traditional methods fall short. Learn about the first-ever quantum computation involving quarks with three colour degrees of freedom using SU(3) gauge theory on superconducting quantum computers. Gain insights from Muschik's extensive background in quantum optics and information processing, developed through her work at prestigious institutions including the Max Planck Institute, ICFO, and the University of Waterloo's Institute for Quantum Computing. Explore the intersection of quantum computing and particle physics in this comprehensive 73-minute seminar that pushes the boundaries of our understanding of the standard model.
