Quantum computing is shifting from laboratory experiments into enterprise pipelines, and the software stack developers pick now will shape their careers for years. The quantum programming language ...

A quantum problem once described as impossible for classical computers has now been solved using relatively modest hardware.

Researchers from the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) Brookhaven National Laboratory, Northeastern University, Google ...

A newly published study from researchers at the University of Southern California (USC) and Los Angeles–based startup Quantum Elements could mark an important step toward practical quantum computing.

The company has drawn governments, a major chipmaker, and the Pentagon into an effort to control fragile photons and build a ...

Hadronization occurs when two or more quarks—the subatomic building blocks of matter—bind together through the strong nuclear force to form composite particles called hadrons. The most familiar ...

Many modern technologies, from optical communications and artificial intelligence (AI) hardware to advanced sensors and medical imaging, depend on photonic and semiconductor devices that precisely ...

A machine smaller than a grain of sand has turned heat into useful work near absolute zero, opening a new path to far more ...

Just as AI has its dreams of “AGI” and “superintelligence,” quantum computing has its own north star: broad, practical quantum advantage over traditional supercomputers. The quantum industry’s goal is ...

The US government wants to get hold of a quantum computer good enough to contribute to scientific breakthroughs in just two years. It will use it to try to accelerate the research and development of ...

To this day, we have yet to see a quantum computer conclusively perform a single useful task. Existing machines are simply too small and error-ridden to solve commercially relevant problems. That hasn ...
