Is Qi the same as Energy?
... and attention, but energy is not a common reading. So why do we translate it as such? The character for Qi, pictured above, represents ‘the steam given off by cooking rice’. It connotes something (the ‘riceness’) that is retained when a substance is transformed from material to non-material form. As ...

Open-System Quantum Simulation with Atoms and Ions
... Quantum simulation of many-particle physics is usually discussed for Hamiltonian systems, i.e. closed systems with unitary time evolution. Quantum simulation is of interest both for equilibrium systems, e.g. to determine the phase diagram of an interacting many-particle system, and for non-equilibri ...
