Possible application of Quantum Information
Summarize this article with:
Recently, I was thinking where Quantum Computing might have a real world impact after recent advancements in Quantum Computing. The use cases include many, but I was searching for something related to fundamental sciences. In this quest, I came across a lecture given by Prof. David Tong at The Royal Institution about Quantum Field 9 years back. It explains the Standard Model with 12 fundamental particles, 4 fields and Dirac equation that explains all the experiments that we can carry out ourselves. However, it can't explain a lot of things happening in the universe, things influenced by dark matter, dark energy and an event that marks the initial period of the universe termed as inflation. He further talked about the importance of Large Hadron Collider in finding the Higgs Boson particle and field; which explains the gravitational force and field. The conclusion of the video was about what comes next and he discussed 3 possible ways. That's the part where I seem to find my answer. He believes that, the answer to the unexplainable observations might be hidden in Dirac equation itself, it's just that we have to look through a different perspective. However, LHC operations are too cost and resource heavy for a government to sponsor these experiments and one of the possible ways was Quantum Information. This video was posted 9 years back when Quantum Computing was really in it's infant phase but with recent advancements, we've hardwares and algorithms that are much better at Quantum Simulation . Maybe we can use these tools to understand and explain the unexplainable? What are your thoughts?
