When combined with Qiskit software tools, the 156-qubit R2 Heron quantum processor can perform 5,000 two-qubit gate ...

Exotic quantum rifts have been created with charged atoms, and they exist in a superposition of being in two places at once. This is a first step towards better understanding the behaviour of such ...

Nov. 4, 2024 — Nanoscale 3D transistors made from ultrathin semiconductor materials can operate more efficiently than silicon-based devices, leveraging quantum mechanical properties to ...

Measuring disorder in the quantum realm is creating a bit of a mess. A mathematical study found that three different definitions of entropy that were previously thought to be equivalent don’t ...

From subatomic particles to complex molecules, quantum systems hold the key to understanding how the universe works. But there's a catch: when you try to model these systems, that complexity ...

A team of Chinese researchers, led by Wang Chao from Shanghai University, has demonstrated that D-Wave’s quantum annealing ...

HOLYOKE – The Massachusetts Green High Performance Computing Center and its Boston-based partner, QuEra Computing, plan to build a $16 million quantum computing complex in Holyoke over the next ...

Researchers in China say they've used a quantum computer to break RSA encryption. But that doesn't necessarily mean your emails or WhatsApp messages will be intercepted anytime soon. Encryption is ...

The principles of quantum mechanics represent the fundamental nature of reality—but a reality that is different from what we see in our everyday experience. We are accustomed to objects that ...

Quantum research breakthrough uses synthetic dimensions to efficiently process quantum information Discovery of a synthetic photonic lattice capable of generating and manipulating quantum states ...

Recent headlines have proclaimed that Chinese scientists have hacked "military-grade encryption" using quantum computers, sparking concern and speculation about the future of cybersecurity.

Quantum physics is the study of matter and energy at its most fundamental level. A central tenet of quantum physics is that energy comes in indivisible packets called quanta. Quanta behave very ...
