2021 Quantum Predictions and 2020 Predictions Analysis!
It’s always amazing in January to sit back and check our previous year predictions with easy criticism and to predict new year facts with a fair dose of optimism. And a bit of humor too.
A new scalable approach towards the quantum computer
Researchers at QuTech, a collaboration between TU Delft and TNO, have invented a new readout method that is an important step forward on the road towards such a large-scale quantum computer. The approach of the
Breaking through the resolution barrier with quantum-limited precision
Researchers at Paderborn University have developed a new method of distance measurement for systems such as GPS, which achieves more precise results than ever before. Using quantum physics, the team has successfully overcome the so-called
Ultracold atom interferometry in space
A team of German researchers have employed light-pulse interferometry to investigate and exploit the spatial coherence of multi-component Bose-Einstein Condensates (BECs) on a sounding rocket. BECs in free fall constitute a promising source for space-borne
Quantum computed moments correction to variational estimates
The variational principle of quantum mechanics is the backbone of hybrid quantum computing for a range of applications. However, as the problem size grows, quantum logic errors and the effect of barren plateaus overwhelm the
