Scientists have finally figured out how to read ultra-secure Majorana qubits—bringing robust quantum computing a big step closer. “This is a crucial advance,” says Ramón Aguado, a CSIC researcher at ...

Quantum computer research is advancing at a rapid pace. Today's devices, however, still have significant limitations: For example, the length of a quantum computation is severely limited—that is, the ...

Just a few years ago, many researchers in quantum computing thought it would take several decades to develop machines that could solve complex tasks, such as predicting how chemicals react or cracking ...

Quantum hardware has finally crossed a psychological threshold: it is no longer a science project in search of a purpose, it is a working tool that large companies and governments are starting to use.

Even as quantum computing advances steadily, it will not replace classical computers in the near future. Most current systems ...

Quantum is advancing rapidly, sparking discussions about how the powerful computers will integrate with industries like the already booming data center sector.

By using controlled microwave noise, researchers created a quantum refrigerator capable of operating as a cooler, heat engine, or amplifier. This approach offers a new way to manage heat directly ...

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.

Governments and technology companies are fueling an urgent, high-stakes race to develop quantum power, which promises to revolutionize- and potentially compromise - global security Quantum computing ...
