Creating analogs of thermal distributions from diabatic excitations in ion-trap-based quantum simulation

One broad goal of quantum simulation is to start a simple quantum system in its ground state and slowly evolve the Hamiltonian to a complex one, maintaining the ground state throughout the evolution (called adiabatic state preparation). This provides a natural setting to create a highly entangled an...
