DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Jack Y. Araz (City University of London)\n\nAbstract
 : Recent advances in quantum hardware and quantum information science are 
 opening new avenues for tackling longstanding challenges in fundamental ph
 ysics. Quantum technologies are expected to assist in various areas of par
 ticle physics\, from discovering new particles to enabling first-principle
 s calculations in QCD. In this talk\, I will discuss how emerging quantum 
 platforms can be utilised to simulate aspects of the Standard Model. A par
 ticular focus will be on trapped ion quantum computers\, which offer a uni
 que capability: they can naturally represent both fermionic and bosonic de
 grees of freedom within the same device\, using ion spins as qubits and co
 llective vibrational modes as continuous variables. This hybrid simulation
  approach can go beyond the reach of current superconducting quantum techn
 ologies. Furthermore\, we will explore how quantum optimal control and qua
 ntum hardware architecture design can be employed to enhance our ability t
 o simulate lattice field theories.  \n\nhttps://indico.stfc.ac.uk/event/
