The National Science Foundation Division of Physics awarded a $350,098 three-year Project Grant to the Colorado School of Mines under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) to support research titled "Non-equilibrium steady states and dynamics in a tapped-ion quantum simulator with engineered dissipation." The grant aims to advance understanding of major problems in physics by using a trapped-ion quantum simulator to study non-equilibrium phenomena and dynamics not achievable through traditional equilibrium methods. A $50,000 sub-award was provided to Michigan State University to support related research on "non-equilibrium steady states and dynamics" using the quantum simulator platform. The grant period runs from September 2021 to August 2024 and will provide approximately $350K in funding to increase knowledge of non-equilibrium physics through innovative quantum simulation techniques with applications across the physical sciences.
