Abstract
We discuss recent advances in applying Quantum Information Science to problems in high-energy nuclear physics. After outlining key developments, open challenges, and emerging connections between these disciplines, we highlight recent results on the study of matter states, hard probes, and spin correlations using novel quantum technologies. This work summarizes the corresponding presentation delivered at the Quark Matter 2025 conference in Frankfurt, Germany.
