Insider Brief IBM has released Nighthawk r2, a 120-qubit processor designed to deliver more useful computation through substantially faster qubit resets. The processor can execute more than 100,000 circuits per second, 25 times the throughput […]
Quantum 10, 2202 (2026). https://doi.org/10.22331/q-2026-09-03-2202 Stabiliser codes with large weight measurements can be challenging to implement fault-tolerantly. To overcome this, we propose a Floquetification procedure which, given a stabiliser code, synthesises a novel Floquet code […]
Quantum computing developer Rigetti Computing and researchers from Purdue University have published joint research extending Rigetti’s quantum preconditioning framework to hard-constrained combinatorial optimization problems. By using two-point variable correlations extracted from shallow Quantum Approximate Optimization […]
Neutral-atom quantum hardware vendor Pasqal (Nasdaq: PSQL) and Saudi deep-tech startup True Nexus have announced a technical milestone in applying quantum computing to structural biology. Supported by Saudi Arabia’s Ministry of Communications and Information Technology […]
What happens when a superconductor becomes so thin that electrons can no longer behave as if they were moving through an ordinary three-dimensional piece of metal? This question has been at the center of my […]
Insider Brief Quobly and TNO have signed an MoU to strengthen technical cooperation on the development and industrialization of silicon spin qubit technology. The partnership combines Quobly’s 300 mm FD-SOI platform with TNO’s expertise in […]
Insider Brief Quandela has signed an MoU with CMC Microsystems to join Canada’s Quantum Computing Sandbox as a cloud-based photonic quantum computing provider. The partnership will give participating SMEs, organizations and academic researchers access to […]
An international team including Nobel Prize-winning physicist Professor Sir Roger Penrose has observed a long-predicted effect of gravity on a falling quantum object for the first time. The result shows that a fundamental principle at […]
French silicon quantum computing developer Quobly has signed two strategic cooperation agreements in the Netherlands with the Netherlands Organisation for Applied Scientific Research (TNO) and automated test equipment provider Orange Quantum Systems (OrangeQS). Executed during […]
IBM Quantum has announced the official release of IBM Quantum Nighthawk r2 (deployed as ibm_phoenix), its fastest quantum processing unit (QPU) to date. Built on a square-lattice architecture, the 120-qubit processor introduces a high-speed dissipative […]
