Each fermion has an antiparticle of opposite electric charge with which it annihilates. But this is not the case for Majorana fermions, which have no charge and are their own antiparticle. Topological quantum computing is […]
In physics, things exist in “phases”, such as solid, liquid, gas. When something crosses from one phase to another, we talk about a “phase transition” – think about water boiling into steam, turning from liquid […]
Cambridge Quantum Computing (CQC) and CERN have posted an article on Arxiv proposing the dual-Parameterized Quantum Circuit (PQC) Generative Adversarial Network (GAN) for generative modelling applications in High-Energy Physics (specifically for generating typical calorimeter images). […]
The SHFSG Signal Generator is an instrument designed to control superconducting and spin qubits and reach higher fidelities with less overhead time. As the first solution of its kind on the market, the SHFSG operates […]
Trapped-ions is considered as one of the most promising mean to create most usable quibits, because it requires only a single ion crystal in a single trapping region. Unfortunately, it appears that this approach is unlikely […]
IBM Quantum and Qiskit team announced the IBM Quantum Developer Certification — the world’s first ever developer certification for programming a quantum computer. The purpose of this test, a 60-questions exam, is to certify that the members […]
Except for Value at Risk and option pricing, quantum algorithm are not often used to solve problems in finance. Indeed, such analysis are computationally too expensive to perform on classical computers. In this study, authors […]
A team of researchers at IBM Quantum and ETH, Switzerland, has introduced a variant of Quantum Amplitude Estimation (QAE), called Iterative QAE (IQAE), which does not rely on Quantum Phase Estimation (QPE) but is only based on Grover’s Algorithm, which reduces […]
Dr Julien Levallois becomes the new President of Swiss Quantum Hub association. He replaces Franck Franchin who acted as Founding President for the last 2 years. Franck will be still involved in the Quantum Community […]
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 […]
