This time a year ago, Steve Horvath was looking for pangolin DNA. The ancient scaly anteater would be a first for his collection, which was then about 200 mammals strong. “I didn’t have any of […]
Trapped ion computers are quantum computers in which the qubits (quantum units of information) are ions trapped by electric fields and manipulated with lasers. To avoid crosstalk between nearby qubits, physicists and engineers design these […]
Quantum 6, 780 (2022). https://doi.org/10.22331/q-2022-08-17-780 Conventional methods of quantum simulation involve trade-offs that limit their applicability to specific contexts where their use is optimal. In particular, the interaction picture simulation has been found to provide […]
Quantum 6, 779 (2022). https://doi.org/10.22331/q-2022-08-17-779 Recently, table-top experiments involving massive quantum systems have been proposed to test the interface of quantum theory and gravity. In particular, the crucial point of the debate is whether it […]
Faster computers, tap-proof communication, sensors beyond standard quantum limit – quantum technologies have the potential to revolutionize our lives just as once the invention of computers or the internet. Experts worldwide are trying to implement […]
Quantum 6, 778 (2022). https://doi.org/10.22331/q-2022-08-17-778 Mutually unbiased bases correspond to highly useful pairs of measurements in quantum information theory. In the smallest composite dimension, six, it is known that between three and seven mutually unbiased […]
Quantum 6, 777 (2022). https://doi.org/10.22331/q-2022-08-17-777 We propose and assess an alternative quantum generator architecture in the context of generative adversarial learning for Monte Carlo event generation, used to simulate particle physics processes at the Large […]
The Quantum Industry Day in Switzerland (QIDiS) will be back at the Technopark in Zurich on October 4th, 2022. The Quantum Industry Day gathers academic and industrial R&D to foster exchange and accelerate the development of new quantum […]
Recent research proves that under certain conditions, quantum annealing computers can run algorithms—including the well-known Shor’s algorithm—more quickly than classical computers. In most cases, however, quantum annealing does not provide a speed-up compared to classical […]
Insider Brief: IonQ Aria marks the second quantum system from IonQ to join Azure Quantum platform, following the 2019 rollout of IonQ Harmony. At launch, cloud access to IonQ Aria is available exclusively via the […]
