When quantum computers become commonplace, current cryptographic systems will become obsolete. Scientists are racing to get ...

For years quantum technology seemed exciting in theory but not much good in practice. Now the ability to combine qubits—bits ...

IBM has released two new complex quantum processors alongside a new framework that would allow us to track the first ...

A study led by the University of Oxford has identified a surprising source of entropy in quantum timekeeping—the act of measurement itself. In a study published in Physical Review Letters, scientists ...

A new fault-tolerant architecture using 448 atomic qubits suppresses errors past the critical point needed for scaling.

Quantum computers have the potential to solve certain calculations exponentially faster than a classic computer could, but more research is desperately needed to make their practical use a reality.

Though still in its early stages, quantum computing is predicted to have the ability to solve problems that are currently too complex or energy-intensive to tackle.

Continuing with unencrypted or classically encrypted systems leaves critical infrastructure, military communications and ...

Physics has a reputation for being dominated by men, especially a century ago, as quantum physics was just being invented – ...
