    Quantum error mitigation for Fourier moment computation

    Oriel Kiss🇨🇭 · Michele Grossi🇨🇭 · Alessandro Roggero🇮🇹

    Hamiltonian moments in Fourier space - expectation values of the unitary evolution operator under a Hamiltonian at different times - provide a convenient framework to understand quantum systems. They offer insights into the energy distribution, higher-order dynamics, response functions, correlation information and physical properties. This paper focuses on the computation of Fourier moments within the context of a nuclear effective field theory on superconducting quantum hardware. The study integrates echo verification and noise renormalization into Hadamard tests using control reversal gates. These techniques, combined with purification and error suppression methods, effectively address quantum hardware decoherence. The analysis, conducted using noise models, reveals a significant reduction in noise strength by two orders of magnitude. Moreover, quantum circuits involving up to 266 CNOT gates over five qubits demonstrate high accuracy under these methodologies when run on IBM superconducting quantum devices.

    Can we measure Double DVCS at JLab and the EIC?

    K. Deja🇵🇱 · V. Martinez-Fernandez🇵🇱 · B. Pire🇫🇷 · P. Sznajder🇵🇱 · J. Wagner🇵🇱

    Double deeply virtual Compton scattering (DDVCS) is a very precise tool for the nucleon tomography. Its measurement requires high luminosity electron beams and precise dedicated detectors, since its amplitude is quite small in the interesting kinematical domain where collinear QCD factorization allows the extraction of quark and gluon generalized parton distributions (GPDs). We analyze the prospects for its study in the JLab energy domain as well as in higher energy electron-ion colliders. Our results are very encouraging for various observables both with an unpolarized and polarized lepton beam. Using various realistic models for GPDs, we demonstrate that DDVCS measurements are indeed very sensitive to their behaviour. Implementing our lowest order cross-section formulae in the EpIC Monte Carlo generator, we estimate the expected number of interesting events.

    Collectivity inside high-multiplicity jets in high-energy proton-proton collisions

    Wenbin Zhao🇺🇸 · Zi-Wei Lin🇺🇸 · Xin-Nian Wang🇺🇸

    We present the first study of collectivity inside jets with high charged multiplicity in proton-proton collisions at the Large Hadron Collider. By incorporating final-state partonic and hadronic interactions through cascade models among jet shower partons and final hadrons, we investigate and compare to the CMS experimental data on multiplicity distribution, pseudorapidity distribution, and elliptic anisotropy coefficient of two-particle correlations within the jet. We show that final-state partonic interactions are essential for producing the flow-like long-range correlation, which leads to the enhanced tail in the dependence of above the non-flow correlation from jet parton showering at high multiplicities () as observed in the CMS experimental data. In addition, we provide predictions for the pseudorapidity-gap dependence of that can be tested in future experimental measurements.

    Extracting transition generalized parton distributions from hard exclusive pion-nucleon scattering

    Jian-Wei Qiu🇺🇸 · Zhite Yu🇺🇸

    We study the extraction of transition generalized parton distributions (GPDs) from production of two back-to-back high transverse momentum photons () and a massive pair of leptons () in hard exclusive pion-nucleon scattering. We argue that the exclusive scattering amplitude of both processes could be factorized into nonperturbative pion distribution amplitude and nucleon transition GPDs that are convoluted with perturbatively calculable short-distance matching coefficients. We demonstrate that the exclusive diphoton production not only is complementary to the Drell-Yan-type dilepton production for extracting the GPDs, but also provides enhanced sensitivities for extracting the parton momentum fraction dependence of the GPDs. We show that both exclusive observables are physically measurable at the J-PARC and AMBER experiment energies. If the target nucleon can be polarized, corresponding spin asymmetries can offer additional sensitivities for extracting transition GPDs.

    Theoretical aspects of relativistic spin hydrodynamics coupled with electromagnetic fields

    Rajeev Singh🇺🇸 · Masoud Shokri🇩🇪 · S. M. A. Tabatabaee🇮🇷

    We expand the classical phase-space distribution function to incorporate couplings between spin and electromagnetic fields. This extension has led to the derivation of modified constitutive relations for the charge current, energy-momentum tensor, and spin tensor. Due to these couplings, the new tensors are revised from their perfect fluid analogues, creating an interplay between the background and spin fluid equations of motion. The corrections introduced in our framework have the potential to shed light on the experimentally observed discrepancies in the spin polarization measurements of Lambda hyperons.
