Insider Brief IonQ has appointed Jordan Shapiro as President and General Manager of its Quantum Networking division, marking a move to strengthen its position in quantum-secure communications. Shapiro, a longtime IonQ executive and former venture […]
Insider Brief A new study from Hebrew University shows that proton transfer in biological systems is influenced by electron spin, revealing a quantum component to a fundamental life process. Researchers found that injecting electrons with […]
Researchers have developed a new quantum theory of gravity which describes gravity in a way that’s compatible with the Standard Model of particle physics, opening the door to an improved understanding of how the universe […]
IBM has introduced the Quantum Flex Plan, a new access and pricing model aimed at supporting project-based quantum computing research with greater flexibility, simplicity, and lower cost. The Flex Plan is designed for researchers and […]
At long last, a unified theory combining gravity with the other fundamental forces—electromagnetism and the strong and weak nuclear forces—is within reach. Bringing gravity into the fold has been the goal of generations of physicists, […]
MIT physicists have captured the first images of individual atoms freely interacting in space. The pictures reveal correlations among the “free-range” particles that until now were predicted but never directly observed. Their findings, published today […]
It can be tempting to assume that your intuitions about three-dimensional space carry over to higher-dimensional realms. After all, adding another dimension simply creates a new direction to move around in. It doesn’t change the […]
Insider Brief Google Quantum AI researchers say building a fault-tolerant quantum computer is possible with superconducting qubits, but it will require major advances in materials science, manufacturing, system design, and error mitigation. The study identifies […]
Quantum 9, 1732 (2025). https://doi.org/10.22331/q-2025-05-05-1732 We present an error mitigation strategy composed of Echo Verification (EV) and Clifford Data Regression (CDR), the combination of which allows one to learn the effect of the quantum noise […]
Laser-cooled atomic gases, gases of atoms chilled to temperatures around absolute zero using laser technologies, have proved to be versatile physical platforms to study and control quantum phenomena. When these atomic gases interact with light […]
