A framework for performing real-time simulations of QCD on a one-dimensional lattice using quantum computers is presented. By including weak interactions through four-Fermi effective operators the beta-decay of a single baryon on one lattice site is simulated using Quantinuum's H1-1 20-qubit device. Classical computing resources are used to determine the hadronic spectrum, enabling a study of quark entanglement. Structures in the entanglement
are found to correspond with degeneracies in the mass spectrum and a transition between quark-antiquark and baryon-antibaryon excitations.
