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 […]
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 […]
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 […]
Algorithms that search for a pattern within a larger data-set appear ubiquitously in text and image processing. Pattern matching algorithms are used ubiquitously used in image processing, the study of DNA sequences, and data compression […]
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 […]
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 […]
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 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 Higgs boson decays yet seen at the LHC.
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.
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 […]
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.
Researchers have found a way to use light and a single electron to communicate with a cloud of quantum bits and sense their behavior, making it possible to detect a single quantum bit in a […]
Fermilab scientists have been conducting experiments to look for quantum fluctuations of space and time at the smallest scale imaginable according to known physics. At this limit, the Planck length, our classical notions of space […]
Recent work has constructed a relation problem that a noisy constant-depth quantum circuit (QNC0) can solve with near certainty (probability 1−o(1)), but that any bounded fan-in constant-depth classical circuit (NC0) fails with some constant probability. It […]
For years, physicists have been looking for materials that emulate a Kitaev honeycomb (solid-state model known to birth Majorana fermions in magnetic fields). Physicists from Chung-Ang University, Korea, unveiled the existence of Majorana fermions in α-RuCl3, […]
A team of researchers at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (Berkeley Lab) used a quantum computer to successfully simulate an aspect of particle collisions that is typically neglected in high-energy physics experiments, such as those that […]
To build a universal quantum computer from fragile quantum components, effective implementation of Quantum Error Correction (QEC) is an essential requirement and a central challenge. Since qubits are intrinsically fragile, the most outstanding challenge of […]
A collaboration between the Universities of Hong-Kong, Grenoble and Vienna, as well as the Austrian Academy of Sciences has revealed novel techniques to reduce noise in quantum communication. The primary approach to overcome these noise […]
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 […]
ParityQC LogoNEC Corporation and ParityQC have announced that they have started collaborating in the field of Quantum Annealing. NEC will be the first company worldwide implementing the ParityQC architecture for quantum annealing devices. The collaboration […]
Researchers from the University of Oxford and the Université libre de Bruxelles have developed a theory of causality in quantum theory, according to which cause-effect relations can sometimes form cycles. This theory offers a novel […]
An international team of scientists has invented the equivalent of body armour for extremely fragile quantum systems, which will make them robust enough to be used as the basis for a new generation of low-energy […]
A group of four friends had decided to take this responsibility and founded Brazil Quantum, with the ultimate goal to make Brazil a global player in quantum computing.
Origin Quantum Computing Technology, a Chinese startup, launched the country’s first homegrown operating system (OS) for quantum computers. The new OS, named Origin Pilot, has been optimized for the resource management and parallel processing capabilities […]
