Workshop on Quantitative Quantum Simulation
We are pleased to announce a 3-day workshop on Quantitative Quantum Simulation, which will take place at Keble College, Oxford from 10am on Wednesday 7th January, finishing with lunch at 1pm on Friday 9th January 2026.
This workshop will be held as the annual meeting of the EPSRC Programme Grant on Quantum Advantage in Quantitative Quantum Simulation, and will centre around the applications of neutral atoms in optical lattices and optical tweezers to the study of many-body physics, with ultimate applications ranging from materials science to quantum metrology.
We will present research currently underway in the programme grant, and will have separate invited talks, poster sessions, and contributed talks.
We will include topics around:
– Neutral atoms in tweezer arrays
– Confined gases in box traps
– Dipolar quantum gases
– Atoms in optical lattices
– Requirements for quantum advantage in quantum simulation
– Dynamics in topological systems, quasicrystals and disordered systems
– Generation of entangled states for metrology and sensing
Confirmed speakers include:
Nigel Cooper (Cambridge)
Andrew Daley (Oxford)
Tilman Esslinger (ETH Zurich)
Stefan Kuhr (Strathclyde)
Zoran Hadzibabic (Cambridge)
Elmar Haller (Strathclyde)
