P02 – Quantum simulation and computing in dual-species atom arrays
PI: Hannes Bernien, University of Innsbruck.
Dual-species Rydberg arrays for multi-qubit gates, new quantum simulation regimes, and measurement-controlled dynamics (mid-circuit measurements).
P03 – Magnetism and superradiance with dipolar atoms in lattices
PI: Francesca Ferlaino, University of Innsbruck.
