Have you ever thought that light might hold a key to life’s mysteries? One hundred years ago, Alexander Gurwitsch dared to propose that living cells emit faint ultraviolet light, invisible to the naked eye, to […]
Entanglement is perhaps one of the most confusing aspects of quantum mechanics. On its surface, entanglement allows particles to communicate over vast distances instantly, apparently violating the speed of light. But while entangled particles are […]
Quantum 8, 1576 (2024). https://doi.org/10.22331/q-2024-12-23-1576 Understanding the influence of measurements on the properties of many-body systems is a fundamental problem in quantum mechanics and for quantum technologies. This paper explores how a finite density of […]
Insider Brief Rigetti Computing launched its flagship 84-qubit Ankaa-3 quantum computer, featuring a major hardware redesign and achieving significant milestones, including a 99.0% median iSWAP gate fidelity and 99.5% median fSim gate fidelity. The Ankaa-3 […]
Quantum 8, 1575 (2024). https://doi.org/10.22331/q-2024-12-23-1575 Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) enables secret key exchange between two remote parties with information-theoretic security rooted in the laws of quantum physics. Encoding key information in continuous variables (CV), such […]
Quantum 8, 1574 (2024). https://doi.org/10.22331/q-2024-12-23-1574 Photon loss represents a major challenge for the implementation of quantum communication protocols with untrusted devices, e.g. in the device-independent (DI) or semi-DI approaches. Determining critical loss thresholds is usually […]
Quantum hype or an aware quantum workforce? Quantum experiment or quantum use case? AI or Quantum AI? Over the past year, the quantum industry has matured, possibly not completely matured, but quantum has moved rapidly […]
MIT physicists and colleagues have for the first time measured the geometry, or shape, of electrons in solids at the quantum level. Scientists have long known how to measure the energies and velocities of electrons […]
Insider Brief Researchers successfully implemented the color code, an alternative quantum error correction method, on superconducting qubits that could one day reduce logical errors and perform efficient operations with fewer resources than the surface code. […]
Insider Brief: The Australian Government’s Critical Technologies Challenge Program offers up to AU$5 million (approximately $3.1 million) in funding to accelerate the commercialization of quantum technologies through two-stage grants for feasibility and demonstrator projects. The […]
