Quantum Simulator for the Ising model with electrons floating on helium film — •Sarah Mostame and Ralf Schützhold — Institut für Theoretische Physik, Technische Universität Dresden, 01062 Dresden, Germany

We propose a physical setup that can be used to simulate the quantum dynamics of the Ising model. Our scheme consists of electrons floating on liquid helium which interact via Coulomb forces. In the limit of low temperatures (0.1 kelvin) the system will stay near the ground state where its Hamiltonian is equivalent to the Ising model. Furthermore, the proposed design is relevant to study the adiabatic quantum computers.
