The Quantum Interactions Theory Group is a theoretical research group that develops novel tools for investigating and engineering light-matter interactions with applications in the field of quantum information science.
Their work involves close collaborations with experimental groups and focuses particularly on finding new protocols for realizing:
- quantum networks
- quantum simulations of models from high energy physics
- quantum sensors
- hybrid quantum-classical computing
