Using a device known as a trapped-ion quantum simulator, the researchers were able to simulate a system comprised of 23 ytterbium ions (i.e., charged atoms) arranged into a 1D chain. This device ...

“Our work has shown that the Hubbard model is inadequate to fully account for cuprate physics, even in a simple 1D system. If the model has already failed at the 1D level, we wouldn’t expect ...

After decades of looking, researchers have seen a string of atoms go through a 1D ... their simulator makes such exotic states of matter possible, it could be used to study theoretical systems ...

In tests, as published in Nature Communications today, THRIFT improved the simulation estimates and circuit complexities of one of the most widely used benchmarks in quantum physics (1D transverse ...
