ETH boosts Quantum Research in Switzerland

ETH Zurich in Switzerland intends to further expand its leading position in quantum research, and so it is planning a highly specialised physics laboratory building on the Hönggerberg campus. A generous donation from ETH alumnus […]

QuTech, KPN, SURF and OPNT join forces to build a quantum network

QuTech, KPN, SURF and OPNT join forces to build a quantum network

QuTech, KPN, SURF and OPNT are launching a collaboration designed to make significant progress in building a first ever quantum network connecting the Randstad, i.e. one of the main metropolitan regions in The Netherlands. The project will focus on connecting different quantum processors, a significant distance apart, over a Dutch network. The aim is to build the very first fully functional quantum network using high-speed fibre connections.

Time to start the Global Workshop!

Today, November 23, we are starting our first Global Quantum Programming Workshop | QBronze! This is the final and the largest workshop organized as part of QWorldChallenge2020 Autumn Edition. More than seven hundred participants from […]

Our 6th QWebinar with Dr. Sarah Kaiser

In our upcoming QWebinar, we will host Dr. Sarah Kaiser, who will talk about “Growing the open source quantum software community”. As Dr. Sarah Kaiser says: “I want to share with you my journey from […]

Enhancing battery performance with quantum sensors

A new project aimed at harnessing quantum technology to enhance vehicle battery performance has been awarded Partnership Resource Funding by the University of Birmingham-led UK Quantum Technology Hub Sensors and Timing. The project, led by […]

Quantum Search Grover Algorithm at CERN

Scientists have demonstrated a novel method for applying the quantum Grover Algorithm (GA) – to search for rare events in proton-proton collisions at 13 TeV collision energy using CERN’s Large Hadron Collider. The search is […]

Hybrid quantum-classical scheme for prime factorization

Researchers have reported a quantum-classical hybrid scheme for factorization of bi-prime numbers (which are odd and square-free) using IBM’s quantum processors. The hybrid scheme has involved both classical optimization techniques and adiabatic quantum optimization techniques, […]

A new candidate material for Quantum Spin Liquids

Scientists at EPFL’s School of Basic Sciences have successfully produced and studied a Quantum Spin Liquid (QSL) in a highly original material known as EDT-BCO. The system was designed and synthesized at Université d’Angers, France […]

Optical wiring for large quantum computers

Researchers at ETH have demonstrated a new technique for carrying out sensitive quantum operations on atoms. In this technique, the control laser light is delivered directly inside a chip. This should make it possible to […]

Particles might break the speed of light

Recent experiments show that particles should be able to go faster than light when they quantum mechanically “tunnel” through walls. QuantaMagazine has just published a very amazing article about tunneling effect and its consequences. Some […]

Online workshop in Latvia with QTalks
