A preliminary analysis suggests that industrially useful quantum computers designs come with a broad spectrum of energy ...
Researchers created scalable quantum circuits capable of simulating fundamental nuclear physics on more than 100 qubits. These circuits efficiently prepare complex initial states that classical ...
Google announced a major quantum breakthrough using its Willow chip and the Quantum Echoes algorithm. The new method performed a complex physics task 13,000 times faster than the world’s fastest ...
Google unveiled its Willow quantum chip more than a year ago. With just 105 qubits onboard, the chip claimed its spot as the ...
Google's Willow quantum computer processor was able to map out the features of a molecule 13,000 times faster than a modern supercomputer. Researchers at tech giant Google said they mapped out the ...
The big picture: In 2019, Google's Sycamore chip achieved quantum supremacy by solving a random number problem that would have taken the fastest supercomputer 10,000 years to complete. Although that ...
Governments and tech companies continue to pour money into quantum technology in the hopes of building a supercomputer that can work at speeds we can't yet fathom to solve big problems.
Supercomputers are unsung heroes—unless you're a nerd like we are, in which case they're probably at least a little bit sung. Share on Facebook (opens in a new window) Share on X (opens in a new ...
