New Frontiers in Quantum Simulation: QED and QCD with Cold Atoms and Ions
PETER ZOLLER
Institute for Theoretical Physics, University of Innsbruck
Recently, the condensed matter and atomic physics communities have
mutually
benefited from synergies emerging from the quantum simulation of strongly
correlated systems using atomic setups. While there is presently
significant interest in artificial gauge fields mimicking magnetic fields
in (neutral) atom setups to observe phenomena like fractional quantum
Hall
physics, we will discuss prospects of realizing simple models of
dynamical
gauge fields (lattice gauge theories) as a next generation of possible
cold
atom experiments, where the (very) long term goal is to develop atomic
quantum simulators for QED and QCD.

From Einstein's intuition to quantum bits: a new quantum age
ALAIN ASPECT
Laboratoire Charles Fabry, Institute d'Optique, CNRS, France
In 1935, with co-authors Podolsky and Rosen, Einstein discovered an
amazing
quantum situation, where particles in a pair are so strongly correlated
that Schrödinger called them "entangled". By analysing that situation,
Einstein concluded that the quantum formalism was incomplete. Niels Bohr
immediately opposed that conclusion, and the debate lasted until the
death
of these two giants of physics, in the 1950's.
In 1964, John Bell produced his famous inequalities, which allowed
experimentalists to settle the debate, and to show that the revolutionary
concept of entanglement is indeed a reality.
Based on that concept, a new field of research has emerged, quantum
information, where one uses quantum bits, the so-called "qubits". In
contrast to classical bits which are either in state 0 or state 1, qubits
can be simultaneously in state 0 and state 1, as a Schrödinger cat could
be
simultaneously dead and alive.
Entanglement between qubits enables conceptually new methods for
processing
and transmitting information. Large scale practical implementation of
such
concepts might revolutionize our society, as did the laser, the
transistor
and integrated circuits, some of the most striking fruits of the first
quantum revolution, which began with the 20th century.
