computing tetraquarks
Protons and neutrons are not the only particles that are made of quarks. Our research team at York University is combining theory and computation to explore whether a particular category of tetraquarks might exist.

computing with qubits
Would some quantum field theory calculations be done most naturally on a quantum computer? Options are being explored with collaborators at Waterloo's Institute for Quantum Computing and also with students at York.
