Israel is seeking to build its first quantum computer, joining a global race for one of the world’s most important emerging technologies. The Ministry of Defense and Innovation Authority are taking bids from multinational companies, […]
Adaptive bandwidth management for entanglement distribution in quantum networks
Purdue University engineers have addressed an issue barring the development of quantum networks. The team deployed a programmable switch to adjust how much data goes to each user by selecting and redirecting wavelengths of light carrying the different data […]
GlaxoSmithKline in Quantum Computing
Drug maker GlaxoSmithKline (GSK) is evaluating Quantum Computing for specific workloads that hit scalability and complexity walls with traditional architectures and approaches, specifically genetic algorithms. Specifically, the company wanted to understand how quantum computing might […]
Largest ever Natural Language Processing implementation on a Quantum Computer
Cambridge Quantum Computing (CQC) announces the publication of a research paper on the online pre-print repository arxiv (available here) that provides details of the largest ever experimental implementation of Natural Language Processing (NLP) tasks on a […]
The hunt for the Quantum collapse
Leiden University physicists simulated an experiment to catch this mysterious moment of superposition collapsing for the Schrödinger’s cat. The Leiden physicists decided to open the hunt for the collapse from the perspective of an amplifier […]
Benchmarking quantum computers
Scientist at Atos Quantum Laboratory, France, has written an interesting paper about quantum benchmarking. Existing protocols for benchmarking current quantum co-processors fail to meet the usual standards for assessing the performance of High-Performance-Computing platforms. This […]
Powerful spintronic magnet paired with Graphene
An international research team led by the University at Buffalo has described how they paired a magnet with graphene, and induced what they describe as “artificial magnetic texture” in the nonmagnetic wonder material. For their experiments, researchers […]
Machine learning blazes path to reliable Quantum Computers
Scientists at Los Alamos National Laboratory has proposed using machine learning to develop algorithms that compensate for the crippling noise endemic on today’s quantum computers offers a way to maximize their power for reliably performing […]
Entangled qubit states sent through a communication channel
Researchers at University of Chicago have sent entangled qubit states through a communication cable linking one quantum network node to a second node for the very first time. They have also amplified an entangled state […]
Beams of entangled atoms
A new method has been developed at TU Wien, Austria, to produce entangled atom pairs and not just atoms which are emitted in all directions, but well-defined beams. This was achieved with the help of […]
