Physicist Peter P. Orth (left) and computer scientist Markus Bläser are collaborating on the QIAPO project with industry partners Infineon and BMW, as well as the quantum startup planqc, to explore ...

What use is a quantum computer? Perhaps both more and less than you think, according to quantum computing expert Shayan Majidy ...

A vital ingredient for making quantum computers truly useful just might be conventional computers. That was the message from a gathering of researchers this month, which explained that classical ...

The promise of quantum computers appears to be that they will upend modern computing as we know it. With exceptional computational power, they’ll be performing feats unimaginable for any classical ...

A gold superconducting quantum computer hangs against a black background. Quantum computers, like the one shown here, could someday allow chemists to solve problems that classical computers can’t.

A quantum computer has demonstrated that it can solve a problem more efficiently than a conventional computer. This achievement comes from being able to unlock a vast memory resource that classical ...

On May 7, 1981, influential physicist Richard Feynman gave a keynote speech at Caltech. Feynman opened his talk by politely rejecting the very notion of a keynote speech, instead saying that he had ...

Quantum computers have long promised to surpass their classical counterparts, but concretely demonstrating this advantage remains a major challenge. A team of researchers has just taken a significant ...
