SUMMARY:Jens Koch: Open-system quantum simulation with photons
CLASS:PUBLIC
DESCRIPTION:JENS KOCH\, NORTHWESTERN UNIVERSITY\n\nQuantum simulators such 
 as systems of ultracold atoms in optical\nlattices enable one to explore e
 xotic quantum phases of matter and\nsystematically study quantum phase tra
 nsitions between them. Recently\ndemonstrated photonic systems based on ci
 rcuit QED (Quantum\nElectroDynamics) arrays feature exciting properties th
 at set them\napart from these conventional quantum simulators. In particul
 ar\, a\ncrucial difference is the intrinsic open-system character of\nphot
 on-based systems.
