An international team led by the University of Nottingham, has demonstrated that only quantum and not classical gravity could be used to create a certain informatic ingredient that is needed for quantum computation. This new
Researchers have found a way to use light and a single electron to communicate with a cloud of quantum bits and sense their behavior, making it possible to detect a single quantum bit in a
Fermilab scientists have been conducting experiments to look for quantum fluctuations of space and time at the smallest scale imaginable according to known physics. At this limit, the Planck length, our classical notions of space
Recent work has constructed a relation problem that a noisy constant-depth quantum circuit (QNC0) can solve with near certainty (probability 1−o(1)), but that any bounded fan-in constant-depth classical circuit (NC0) fails with some constant probability. It
For years, physicists have been looking for materials that emulate a Kitaev honeycomb (solid-state model known to birth Majorana fermions in magnetic fields). Physicists from Chung-Ang University, Korea, unveiled the existence of Majorana fermions in α-RuCl3,
A team of researchers at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (Berkeley Lab) used a quantum computer to successfully simulate an aspect of particle collisions that is typically neglected in high-energy physics experiments, such as those that
To build a universal quantum computer from fragile quantum components, effective implementation of Quantum Error Correction (QEC) is an essential requirement and a central challenge. Since qubits are intrinsically fragile, the most outstanding challenge of
A collaboration between the Universities of Hong-Kong, Grenoble and Vienna, as well as the Austrian Academy of Sciences has revealed novel techniques to reduce noise in quantum communication. The primary approach to overcome these noise
Fault-tolerant quantum computers offer the promise of dramatically improving machine learning through speed-ups in computation or improved model scalability. In the near-term, however, the benefits of Quantum Machine Learning (QML) are not so clear. Understanding
NEC Corporation and ParityQC have announced that they have started collaborating in the field of Quantum Annealing. NEC will be the first company worldwide implementing the ParityQC architecture for quantum annealing devices. The collaboration entails
