• Abstract: Current and near term quantum computers (i.e. NISQ devices) are limited in their computational power in part due to qubit decoherence. Here we seek to take advantage of qubit decoherence as a resource in simulating the behavior of real world quantum systems, which are always subject to decoherence, with no additional computational overhead. As a first step toward this goal we simulate the thermal relaxation of quantum beats in radical ion pairs (RPs) on a quantum computer as a proof of concept of the method. We present three methods for implementing the thermal relaxation, one which explicitly applies the relaxation Kraus operators, one which combines results from two separate circuits in a classical post-processing step, and one which relies on leveraging the inherent decoherence of the qubits themselves. We use our methods to simulate two real world systems and find excellent agreement between our results, experimental data, and the theoretical prediction.

  We propose a practical approach to simulate the dynamics of an open quantum system on a noisy computer. Our method leverages gate noises on the IBM-Q real device, enabling us to perform calculations using only two qubits. In the last, to deal with the increasing depth of quantum circuits when doing Trotter expansion, we introduced the transfer tensor method(TTM) to extend our short-term dynamics simulation.
