Prof Paul D Stevenson Academic Website

I am a Professor in the School of Maths and Physics of the University of Surrey, member of the Nuclear Physics Group and the Quantum Foundations and Technology group, and an AWE William Penney Fellow.

My research is mainly in theoretical nuclear physics and quantum computing, with some occasional projects in quantum biology and chemsitry, and in computational methods. Further details can be found in the Research tabs, with a full list of outputs in the Publications tab.

I write a blog about nuclear physics (loosely) called blog of the isotopes and contribute occassionally to blogs about plotting, and the Physics Department’s blog.

Congratulations to Lance Li, my PhD student on the publication of his first paper. It shows how the quantum imaginary time evolution operator can be used to solve nuclear density functional theory on a quantum computer. Physical Review C published the paper today at Phys. Rev. C. 109, 044322 (2024). It’s open access so viewable by all.
