Popis: The quantum simulation of dynamical gauge field theories offers the opportunity to study complex high-energy physics with controllable low-energy devices. For quantum computation, bosonic codes promise robust error correction that exploits multi-particle redundancy in bosons. Here, we demonstrate how bosonic codes can be used to simulate dynamical gauge fields. We encode both matter and dynamical gauge fields in a network of resonators that are coupled via three-wave-mixing. The mapping to a $\mathbb{Z}_2$ dynamical lattice gauge theory is established when the gauge resonators operate as Schr\"odinger cat states. We explore the optimal conditions under which the system preserves the required gauge symmetries. Our findings promote realising high-energy models using bosonic codes.
