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 […]
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 […]
Fault-tolerant quantum computers offer the promise of dramatically improving machine learning through speed-ups in computation or improved model scalability. In the near-term, however, the benefits of Quantum Machine Learning (QML) are not so clear. Understanding […]
Researchers at the University of Basel and Ruhr University Bochum have developed a source of single photons that can produce billions of these quantum particles per second. Each photon is created by exciting a single […]
Austrian AQT startup has just announced their compact ion-trap quantum computer prototype, demonstrating 24 qubit GHZ entanglement in a room-temperature setup housed in two 19-inch racks. This research work in cooperation with the University of Innsbruck, […]
Cambridge Quantum Computing (CQC) has just announced their collaboration with Roche, to design and implement noisy-intermediate-scale-quantum (NISQ) algorithms for early-stage drug discovery and development. The multi-year collaboration will combine the expertise of both CQC and […]
Solid-state quantum computers require classical electronics to control and readout individual qubits and to enable fast classical data processing. Integrating both subsystems at deep cryogenic temperatures, where solid- state quantum processors operate best, may solve […]
Researchers from the University of Basel and TU Eindhoven have produced a new type of qubit that can be switched from a stable idle mode to a fast calculation mode. The challenge for quantum computing […]
Light-based processors, called photonic processors, enable computers to complete complex calculations at incredible speeds. A team of researchers has examined the potential of photonic processors for artificial intelligence applications. The results demonstrated for the first […]
Powerful quantum computers could be built by linking together multiple superconducting quantum processors. Promising schemes involve exchanging visible or infrared photons through optical fibers and converting such photons into microwave photons that can couple to […]
