Quantum Simulation of Turbulence with Cold Atoms
Abstract
The flexibility of cold atom experiments allows them to be used as analogue quantum computers for modelling other physical systems. In this talk I will discuss how cold atoms can be used to simulate quantum turbulence, solving the dynamical quantum many-body problem in cases that exceed the capability of classical computation. The results of these simulations can thus be used to tune the density functional theories and hydrodynamic models, and I will discuss how these inform us about dynamics in nuclear systems, specially in neutron stars.
