Description
Quantum simulations are expected to be able to provide predictions of the dynamics of quantum many-body systems of importance to Standard Model physics research from dense non-equilibrium matter to systems of neutrinos that lie beyond the capabilities of classical computation. After an introduction, I will discuss recent work we have performed in simulating 1+1D quantum field theories, including the evolution of two-flavor QCD and beta-decay of a single baryon using quantum computers, then move to flavor oscillations in dense neutrino systems, then to recent results within the Lipkin model as a demonstrator for potentially interesting directions in nuclear many-body systems. Finally, we then discuss challenges and make some observations about possible paths forward.
