DESCRIPTION:The main goal of this PhD project is to determine if and where
  Quantum Computing (QC) can offer an advantage over traditional (classical
 ) methods when solving problems in Extreme Plasma Physics. This is a new a
 nd exciting research frontier\, where open problems are abundant and well-
 defined directions are lacking. Quantum Computing\, together with classica
 l Machine Learning (ML)\, promise new insights into numerical modeling of 
 physical systems\, and will potentially work as &quot\;accelerators&quot\;
 \, that is\, special-purpose software or devices to run part of a computat
 ion that would otherwise be unfeasible (both in memory and time) on ordina
 ry algorithms and CPUs. Early results on current quantum computers and qu
 antum simulators are still limited to toy-models or problems that can be e
 asily run on classical HPC\, but nevertheless they do show proof-of-concep
 t and clear research directions. One of the goals of this PhD is to demons
 trate &quot\;experimentally&quot\; on current quantum hardware simulations
  of simple plasms systems\, with focus on Strong Field QED regime of inter
 action.
