  1. 1 Intro
  2. 2 We need reliable theory to accurately evaluate S-factors at stellar energies
  3. 3 We combine nuclear forces derived within chiral effective field theory and ab initio methods
  4. 4 Structure, scattering and reactions obtained with unified treatment of bound and unbound states
  5. 5 combine it with experimental data to arrive at an improved evaluation of S..(0)
  6. 6 The ab initio structure and reactions team
  7. 7 Quantum computers perform calculations by manipulating quantum states
  8. 8 A physical realization of a qubit is a transmon
  9. 9 One can also work with registers of d-level quantum systems or qudits
  10. 10 Physically, quantum gates are realized by irradiation with resonant microwave pulses (found by optimization)
  11. 11 Quantum computing offers a natural framework for simulating time-dependent scattering theory
  12. 12 A challenge is to realize useful quantum simulations in this early vacuum tube era' of quanturn computing
  13. 13 In the near term, this is a self-inflicted problem! Can build custom gates for the problem of interest
  14. 14 We can extract the energy spectrum from the signal because we are able to run the simulation a long time
  15. 15 Custom gates enable major performance improvements for state preparation, broader class of problems
  16. 16 The APS Topical Group On Few-Body Systems
  17. 17 With minimal number of custom gates, we demonstrated 99% fidelity, 10-fold increase in quantum simulation time
