By Andre Saraiva, UNSW The Google Quantum AI team published a paper in Nature called “Exponential suppression of bit or phase errors with cyclic error correction”. This title is very well crafted, as it contains […]
The European Commission’s Horizon Europe and Canada’s Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada (NSERC) are partnering to issue a call for joint EU-CAN proposals for research on quantum technologies. Each one will provide funding […]
IBM had announced in late 2019 a new capability called OpenPulse that would allow programmers to program their quantum computers at the pulse level in addition to the gate level. Among other things, this would […]
Maris Ozols (https://homepages.cwi.nl/~maris/) is hiring a post-doc to work at QuSoft / University of Amsterdam on the topic of quantum algorithms for algebraic problems and for symmetric problems with quantum input and quantum output. The […]
Quantum Physics in commercial media has a challenge. While science fiction writers may have a difficult task to convey aspects of quantum physics to their readers, this problem becomes even more difficult in the world […]
We reported in May on an initiative from Dutch-based Quantum Delta NL called Lightspeed to support Dutch based quantum startup with raising capital from potential investors in Europe and the United States. They have now […]
QuantWare was founded in 2020 as a spinoff of QuTech, a quantum technology research institute at TU Delft in the Netherlands, with a goal of providing quantum processing unit (QPUs) chips to other organizations that […]
LOS ALAMOS, N.M., July 15, 2021— Using a D-Wave quantum-annealing computer as a testbed, scientists at Los Alamos National Laboratory have shown that it is possible to isolate so-called emergent magnetic monopoles, a class of […]
The laws of quantum physics rule the microcosm. They determine, for example, how easily electrons move through a crystal and thus whether the material is a metal, a semiconductor or an insulator. Quantum physics may […]
