Physicists at Heidelberg University have developed a new theory that finally unites two long-standing and seemingly incompatible views of how exotic particles behave inside quantum matter. In some cases, an impurity moves through a sea […]
Acronym: QCIC@UCNC 2026 Dates: Sunday, February 8, 2026 Web page: Workshop on Quantum Computing and Quantum Information at UCNC 2026 Submission deadline: Sunday, April 26, 2026 Call for Papers: Workshop on Quantum Computing and Quantum […]
Researchers from the Paul Scherrer Institute (PSI) and ETH Zurich have demonstrated the execution of a logical quantum operation using lattice surgery on a 17-qubit superconducting processor. The experiment, published in Nature Physics, illustrates a […]
Astronomers propose that an ultra-dense clump of exotic dark matter could be masquerading as the powerful object thought to anchor our galaxy, explaining both the blistering speeds of stars near the center and the slower, […]
Joe Ghalbouni is interviewed by Yuval Boger and describes his journey from quantum communication research and teaching in Lebanon to leading quantum and AI initiatives at Point72 and founding Ghalbouni Consulting. They discuss how to […]
Insider Brief Researchers demonstrated that two particles levitated by a steady sound wave can enter a self-sustaining, repeating motion known as a classical time crystal without external timing or quantum effects. The system relies on […]
Friend-of-the-blog Salil Vadhan has asked me to share the following. The Trevisan Award for Expository Work is a new SIGACT award created in memory of Luca Trevisan (1971-2024), with a nomination deadline of April 10, 2026. The award is intended […]
Insider Brief Google is urging governments and industry to accelerate adoption of post-quantum cryptography, warning that advances in quantum computing could soon undermine the encryption that secures today’s digital systems. The company says it has […]
