We study the coherence of two coupled spin qubits in the presence of a bath of nuclear spins simulated using generalized cluster correlation expansion (gCCE) method. In our model, two electron spin qubits coupled with isotropic exchange or magnetic dipolar interactions interact with an environment of random nuclear spins. We study the time-evolution of the two-qubit reduced density matrix (RDM) and resulting decay of the off diagonal elements, corresponding to decoherence, which allows us to calculate gate fidelity in the regime of pure dephasing. We contrast decoherence when the system undergoes free evolution and evolution with dynamical decoupling pulses applied. Moreover, we study the dependence of decoherence on external magnetic field and system parameters which mimic realistic spin qubits, emphasizing magnetic molecules. Lastly, we comment on the application and limitations of gCCE in simulating nuclear-spin induced two-qubit relaxation processes.
