DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Alessandro Roggero\, Ryan LaRose\, Dean Lee (Michiga
 n State University)\, Zohreh Davoudi (Department of Physics\, University o
 f Maryland)\, Alexei Bazavov (Michigan State University\, United States)\,
  Morten Hjorth-Jensen (Michigan State University (USA))\n\nFor nuclear the
 orists\, the overarching challenge is to develop a comprehensive descripti
 on of nuclei and their reactions\, grounded in the fundamental interaction
 s between the constituent nucleons with quantifiable uncertainties to maxi
 mize predictive power. As experimental frontiers have shifted to the study
  of rare isotopes\, the predictive power of successful phenomenological ap
 proaches like the shell model and density functional theory is challenged 
 by the scarcity of nearby experimental data to constrain model parameters.
  Therefore\, it is expected that few-body and many-body methods will play 
 an increasingly prominent role to help improve the predictive power of suc
 h “data driven” methods as experiment moves deeper into largely unexpl
 ored regions of the nuclear chart. \n\nTo understand why nuclear matter i
 s stable\, and thereby shed light on the limits of nuclear stability\, is 
 one of the overarching aims and intellectual challenges of basic research 
 in nuclear physics. To relate the stability of matter to the underlying fu
 ndamental forces and particles of nature as manifested in nuclear matter\,
  is central to present and planned rare isotope facilities. From a theoret
 ical standpoint\, this involves understanding how the basic building block
 s of Nature interact and conspire to build up atomic nuclei as we know the
 m\, with the aim to understand what makes visible matter stable. The theor
 etical efforts span from methods like lattice quantum chromodynamics\, via
  effective field theories to many-body theories applied to atomic nuclei a
 nd infinite nuclear matter. All these methods rely on theoretical approxim
 ations whose applicabilities are often limited by the dimensionality of th
 e specific problem being studied. In recent years\, there has been conside
 rable progress in developing quantum-computing algorithms applied to quant
 um many-body systems\, with the hope to circumvent many of the classically
  intractable problems. \nThis Nuclear Talent school aims at bringing toge
 ther the efforts of nuclear many-body theorists\, quantum information theo
 rists\, and mathematicians in order to present and discuss algorithms for 
 studying nuclear systems using recent progress in quantum information theo
 ry.\n \nSupporting Institutions\n\n\n\nhttps://indico.ectstar.eu/event/25
