Description

Over the last several years proposals have been developing for employing quantum computational techniques both to perform calculations of high-energy processes, and to perform tests of the foundations of quantum mechanics at colliders.

This workshop will bring together a small group of academics to explore the application of state-of-the-art quantum techniques to problems in particle physics.

The workshop will run from mid-morning on Tuesday 19th September to mid-afternoon on Wednesday 20th September.
