The Quantum Computing industry stands at a fascinating crossroads. With major tech companies and ambitious startups racing to achieve quantum supremacy, the demand for quantum computing talent has never been higher. Yet, this rapidly evolving […]
Heat and computers do not mix well. If computers overheat, they do not work well or may even crash. But what about the quantum computers of the future? These high-performance devices are even more sensitive to heat. This is because their basic computational units — quantum bits or “qubits” — are based on highly-sensitive units, some of them individual atoms, and heat can be a crucial interference factor.
Two seemingly different areas of physics are related in subtle ways: Quantum theory and thermodynamics. How can the laws of thermodynamics arise from the laws of quantum physics? This question has now been pursued with computer simulations, which showed that chaos plays a crucial role: Only where chaos prevails do the well-known rules of thermodynamics follow from quantum physics.
A new study describes how machine learning tools, run on classical computers, can be used to make predictions about quantum systems and thus help researchers solve some of the trickiest physics and chemistry problems.
The ARQ19 patent’s claim of achieving long-range quantum key distribution without trusted nodes is unfounded because it relies on an unexplained confidential classical channel between end users that cannot be quantum-based due to distance limitations, making the system’s security ultimately dependent on this non-quantum channel rather than achieving true quantum security.
A physicist at University of Michigan is using quantum computing and machine learning to better understand the idea that everything around us could be just a hologram, the famous so-called holographic duality. Holographic duality is a mathematical […]
