Performing the same simulation with a traditional quantum computer (without using bosonic modes) would require 11 qubits, and to carry out roughly 300,000 “entangling” operations without errors.

How does a quantum computer work? A quantum computer uses qubits, which can exist in a state of superposition, unlike classical bits. This allows for performing multiple calculations simultaneously.

Technology Another quantum computer reached quantum advantage – does it matter? A quantum computer that uses particles of light took about two dozen microseconds to complete a calculation that ...

Single particle acts as a quantum computer to simulate molecules A trapped ytterbium ion can be used to model complex changes in the energy levels of organic molecules interacting with light.

On Aug. 1, Bob Ledoux took the helm as the Quantum New Mexico Institute's director. He comes to the state from the Washington, D.C., area, where he most recently served as program director for the ...

This optimization could significantly increase system performance. QNodeOS represents a cornerstone for the development of distributed quantum computing. It could also play a central role in creating ...

Jumping into quantum computing early, especially in 2025, means you’re likely paying a premium. Think of it like being one of ...

Quantum computing’s potential has reached a new milestone with the simulation of a black hole. This achievement not only marks a significant advancement in computational physics but also ...

The powerhouse computers can be sensitive and error-prone. Now, IBM is offering some details on how it will overcome those problems and build a first-of-its-kind quantum computer.
