The gap between conventional and quantum computers is closing when it comes to simulating scrambling of quantum information Figure 1: A close-up of the trapped-ion ...

D-Wave Two and regular PC were used for the performance test, and the comparison optimization algorithm was run for both comparisons. As a result, the D - Wave Two system could not make use of the ...

Overview: Quantum computing promises exponential speedups for complex healthcare problems like molecular simulation, genomics, and precision medicine, but real- ...

Researchers created scalable quantum circuits capable of simulating fundamental nuclear physics on more than 100 qubits. These circuits efficiently prepare complex initial states that classical ...

Quantum computing is one of those technologies where real-world applications always seem to lie just over the horizon. The next big thing is announced before quickly becoming a forgotten article from ...

Horizon Quantum, a Singapore-based quantum software company, has unveiled its own quantum computer to accelerate ...

Subatomic particles such as quarks can pair up when linked by ‘strings’ of force fields — and release energy when the strings are pulled to the point of breaking. Two teams of physicists have now used ...

TOKYO -- Japanese plastics maker Sekisui Chemical will use Hitachi's so-called quasi-quantum computer to accelerate research on new materials by sifting a wide range of compounds to select the best ...
