Comments on Quantum Computing in Nuclear Physics

We review recent research on quantum computing applications for cal-culations and simulation of nuclear physics. As systems of interacting fermions, nuclei and their quantum simulation bear much similarity to the quantum computation of chemical systems, whose studies are rel-atively more advanced. Hence techniques from the quantum chemistry literature may be readily adopted. Some ways in which nuclei differ from other many-body systems, such as the strong non-perturbative interaction, are highlighted, and a selection of existing results are dis-cussed, covering nuclear structure and reactions.
