Recently\ndemonstrated photonic systems based on circuit QED (Quantum\nElectroDynamics) arrays feature exciting p roperties that set them\napart from these conventional quantum simulators. In particular\, a\ncrucial difference is the intrinsic open-system charac ter of\nphoton-based systems.\n DTSTAMP:20250519T022546Z END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
