First-principle predictions of fragmentation functions via quantum computing
We report on an algorithm to compute fragmentation functions from the first principles Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) Hamiltonian quantized in Light-Front Gauge, opening a path for digital quantum computers to calculate these longitudinal jet-structure observables. Simulating the behaviour of such computers on a classica...
