Quantum technologies have evolved rapidly over the past years producing numerous substantial scientific breakthroughs. One of the most promising fields is the simulation of many-body quantum systems, such as quantum materials, molecules for drug research and the fundamental constituents of matter in extreme conditions. These problems can be addressed by dedicated quantum computers, known as quantum simulators.
During the School + Conference, quantum entanglement, which lies at the core of quantum simulators, will be discussed, together with specific criteria for assessing its usefulness. In addition, several contributions will focus on the emerging topic of simulating quantum gravity with atomic platforms.
