Quantum computing promises to transform our world in rapid, radical and revolutionary ways: solving in seconds problems that ...

One of the biggest headaches in quantum computing is errors. Qubits are super fragile, and any little disturbance from the ...

Microsoft has unveiled a new quantum processing unit, the first to be built on a topological core. Majorana 1 is named after previously-hypothesized Majorana particle, which Microsoft now believes it ...

Scientists at University College Cork (UCC) in Ireland have developed a powerful new tool for finding the next generation of materials needed for large-scale, fault-tolerant quantum computing. The ...

Superconductors (materials that conduct electricity without resistance) have fascinated physicists for more than a century. While conventional superconductors are well understood, a new class of ...

As AI compute costs rise, Microsoft is seeking to reduce reliance on third-party chips, extending its push from custom ...

Physicists at the University of the Witwatersrand in Johannesburg have identified a hidden geometric structure reaching 48 ...

The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) has partnered with three companies for a new quantum computing program aimed at developing utility-scale systems. The US R&D agency also selected ...

QTSP, which is at the core of ranking algorithms, processes higher-order data. This data is represented as graphs and transformed into other graphs. This is usually taxing for classical computers, but ...

There are a seemingly endless number of quantum states that describe quantum matter and the strange phenomena that emerge when large numbers of electrons interact. For decades, many of these states ...
