Insider Brief Microsoft has made progress toward building a more stable quantum computer by successfully measuring a key property of exotic particles called Majorana zero modes. This experiment helps confirm an important step in Microsoft’s […]
By Catherine Bolgar Microsoft today introduced Majorana 1, the world’s first quantum chip powered by a new Topological Core architecture that it expects will realize quantum computers capable of solving meaningful, industrial-scale problems in years, […]
Figure 1 – Microsoft’s Eight Qubit Majorana 1 Device. Credit: Microsoft Introduction After almost 20 years of development, Microsoft has developed a controllable topological qubit module design that they intend on scaling up very quickly […]
In 2003, a German graduate student named Britta Späth encountered the McKay conjecture, one of the biggest open problems in the mathematical realm known as group theory. At first her goals were relatively modest: She […]
Quantum 9, 1639 (2025). https://doi.org/10.22331/q-2025-02-19-1639 One of the most important quantities characterizing the microscopic properties of quantum systems are dynamical correlation functions. These correlations are obtained by time-evolving a perturbation of an eigenstate of the […]
Insider Brief: Researchers at QuTech successfully controlled a four-qubit system using eight germanium quantum dots, advancing semiconductor-based quantum computing. Their study, published in Nature Nanotechnology, highlights improvements in qubit initialization, readout, and control. The team […]
Insider Brief American Binary has launched Ambit Client, the first enterprise VPN fully compliant with the NSA’s CNSA 2.0 standard, addressing the immediate risk of quantum-enabled cyber threats. Unlike traditional VPNs that leave gaps in […]
Quantum 9, 1638 (2025). https://doi.org/10.22331/q-2025-02-19-1638 Quantum computing provides a novel avenue towards simulating dynamical phenomena, and, in particular, scattering processes relevant for exploring the structure of matter. However, preparing and evolving particle wave packets on […]
Insider Brief: The Materiel and IT Command (COMMIT) has selected six companies and research institutions to develop quantum solutions for technical and operational challenges, with final presentations at Purple NECtar/Innovation in Defence in November 2025. […]
