A team of researchers at Universität Stuttgart, Germany, has developed an ion-optics-based quantum microscope that is capable of creating images of individual atoms. The microscope built by the team began with the use of an […]
Lack of symmetry in qubits might explain matter/antimatter
While probing how quantum annealers perform when operated faster than desired, a team of scientists at Los Alamos National Laboratory unexpectedly discovered a new effect that may account for the imbalanced distribution of matter and […]
Upcoming publication – Multi-node quantum network
The post Upcoming publication – Multi-node quantum network appeared first on QuTech.
A speed limit also applies in the quantum world
Physicists at the University of Bonn have shown what the speed limit is for complex quantum operations. The fact that there is a speed limit in the microcosm was already theoretically demonstrated by two Soviet […]
Resource-efficient quantum algorithm for protein folding
A team of researchers at IBM Research – Zurich, Switzerland, has presented a resource-efficient quantum algorithm for protein folding. Predicting the three-dimensional structure of a protein from its primary sequence of amino acids is known […]
CERN’s ATLAS: Evidence of a rare Higgs boson decay
CERN’s ATLAS has found first evidence of the Higgs Boson decaying to two leptons (either an electron or a muon pair with opposite charge) and a photon. Known as “Dalitz decay”, this is one of the rarest […]
Performance advantage in quantum simulation
D-Wave Systems has published a milestone study in collaboration with scientists at Google, demonstrating a computational performance advantage, increasing with both simulation size and problem hardness, to over 3 million times that of corresponding classical […]
IBM’s Quantum computer links two quantum revolutions
Using the IBM Q computer, physicists at EPFL have verified for the first time the tight relationship between quantum entanglement and wave-particle duality, showing that the former controls the latter in a quantum system. EPFL […]
Quantum Internet in Austria
Austria is getting a Quantum Internet. With the “Austrian Quantum Fiber Network” (AQUnet), an Austria-wide network of fiber optic cables is to be built that is suitable for the exchange of quantum information and precision […]
Quantum or Classical Gravity?
An international team led by the University of Nottingham, has demonstrated that only quantum and not classical gravity could be used to create a certain informatic ingredient that is needed for quantum computation. This new […]
