Quantum computing for high-energy physics: ground-state preparation of (2+1)D SU(2) lattice gauge theory
Poster presentation at Kent State Graduate Research Symposium (April 9, 2025).
Academic Profile
I am a Physics PhD candidate at Kent State University (expected 2026), working in theoretical and phenomenological high-energy nuclear physics.
My current research focuses on heavy-flavor physics, especially quarkonium transport, suppression, and regeneration in QGP across RHIC and LHC collision systems. Methodologically, I work with semi-classical transport models and open-quantum-system approaches, including Lindblad evolution.
I also explore quantum computing for HEP, with emphasis on lattice gauge theory workflows and real-time dynamics directions.
