This Project Grant award of $450,000 from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) supports research to develop a new hybrid digital-analog approach for quantum simulation. The project aims to expand the scientific reach of quantum simulators by enabling new classes of quantum interactions that are currently inaccessible. Specifically, the research will demonstrate programmable many-body quantum Hamiltonians containing higher-order spin interactions, using trapped-ion quantum processors. This hybrid technique seeks to overcome the limitations of purely digital quantum simulations and significantly broaden the range of quantum models that can be implemented experimentally. The award period is from July 15, 2025 to June 30, 2028, and the project will be executed by Cornell University's Office of Sponsored Programs. No sub-awards are planned for this grant.
