	abstract = {  Entanglement is typically created via systematic intervention in the time
evolution of an initially unentangled state, which can be achieved by coherent
control, carefully tailored non-demolition measurements, or dissipation in the
presence of properly engineered reservoirs. In this paper we show that
two-component Fermi gases at ~\mu K temperatures naturally evolve, in the
presence of reactive two-body collisions, into states with highly entangled
(Dicke-type) spin wavefunctions. The entanglement is a steady-state property
that emerges---without any intervention---from uncorrelated initial states, and
could be used to improve the accuracy of spectroscopy in experiments with
fermionic alkaline earth atoms or fermionic groundstate molecules.

	abstract = {  We propose and analyze a novel approach to quantum information processing, in
which multiple qubits can be encoded and manipulated using electronic and
nuclear degrees of freedom associated with individual alkaline-earth atoms
trapped in an optical lattice. Specifically, we describe how the qubits within
each register can be individually manipulated and measured with sub-wavelength
optical resolution. We also show how such few-qubit registers can be coupled to
each other in optical superlattices via conditional tunneling to form a
scalable quantum network. Finally, potential applications to quantum
computation and precision measurements are discussed.
