Researchers from the University of Innsbruck and the University of Waterloo have achieved a breakthrough in quantum computing by using qudits (quantum units with multiple values) instead of traditional qubits to efficiently simulate quantum electrodynamics in two dimensions, demonstrating magnetic field interactions between particles and opening new possibilities for solving previously intractable problems in particle physics.
Researchers at Penn Engineering have created a chip that outstrips the security and robustness of existing quantum communications hardware. Their technology communicates in “qudits,” doubling the quantum information space of any previous on-chip laser.
A research team has developed an efficient method to measure high-dimensional qudits (advanced versions of qubits that can hold more information and are more noise-resistant) encoded in quantum frequency combs on a single optical chip, marking a significant advancement for quantum networks and communication systems.
