We propose a novel quantum algorithm for solving nuclear resonances, which is based on the iterative Harrow-Hassidim-Lloyd algorithm and eigenvector continuation with complex scaling. To validate this approach, we compute the resonant states of α−α system and achieve results in good agreement with traditional methods. Our study offers a new perspective on calculating eigenvalues of non-Hermitian operators and lays some groundwork for further exploration of nuclear resonances using quantum computing.
