Quantum computing is rapidly emerging and, as it progresses forward, promises to cross fields of industry—from health sciences to finance and many other fields. Its advent is transforming the face of ...

Predicting the behavior of many interacting quantum particles is a complicated process but is key to harness quantum computing for real-world applications. Researchers have developed a method for ...

In the life sciences and healthcare industries, the speed of innovation impacts how soon new products, medications and ...

Right now, quantum computers are small and error-prone compared to where they’ll likely be in a few years. Even within those limitations, however, there have been regular claims that the hardware can ...

Magnetic materials are used to make MRI machines, hard drives, wireless chargers, and phone speakers. It takes a lot of expensive research and development to create new materials. “And there’s no ...

The original version of this story appeared in Quanta Magazine. For computer scientists, solving problems is a bit like mountaineering. First they must choose a problem to solve—akin to identifying a ...

Just like any machine, quantum computers are prone to make errors. These errors can cause the qubits to lose their quantum states, leading to inaccurate computations. To address this problem, quantum ...

From subatomic particles to complex molecules, quantum systems hold the key to understanding how the universe works. But there's a catch: when you try to model these systems, that complexity quickly ...
