why would someone try to simulate vacuum decay? Would that possibly not provoke it? 
just confusing to my why they are playing around this even with the risks 

What makes you think simulating something would make it actually happen?

That’s what my question is towards would that not possibly cause it. I am having trouble understanding the article and am just curious about what they actually found and how they are attempting to simulate it without possibly causing anything real

A quick Google search turns up Quantum Simulator a (more restricted type?) quantum computer, or software that simulates Q# on classical computers..

The article discussed using types of atoms. Also mentions something about finding vacuum decay in the early universe or did I mess read that?

A simulation is a simulation, its not an active experiment, so no danger.
