Obiettivo "Scientists are beginning to achieve a level of control over quantum systems in the laboratory required to use them to predict the behaviour of other quantum systems i.e. to perform quantum simulations. This has the potential to solve problems of fundamental importance in many fields of research and technology. In this document I present a research proposal in the field of experimental quantum simulation, to be carried out in a trapped-ion system at the Institute for Quantum Optics and Quantum Information in Innsbruck, Austria. The central objective is to develop and apply the first universal quantum simulator, building on the world leading ion-trap expertise in Innsbruck. This will be achieved in three steps: completing the set of operations and techniques required for a universal simulation toolbox; building a new ion trap that will enable coherent control over more than 10 ions; applying this technology to perform the most advanced quantum simulations to date. These all represent important next steps in the young, multi-disciplinary field of quantum simulation. Through my research in Australia I have become an expert in quantum simulation and performed a recent benchmark quantum simulation experiment using a photonic approach. I am therefore in a unique position to help the group in Innsbruck achieve these goals and establish itself as a world leader in quantum simulation."
