In May, quantum computing was in the news as Google helped fund NASA's Quantum Artificial Intelligence Laboratory to house a D-Wave 2 quantum computer, by paying for the device. In a blog that I wrote ...

SEEQC, which traces its lineage back to IBM, is building the world’s quantum computers. They might prove critical in the ...

Quantum computing has long lived in the realm of lab demos and bold PowerPoint slides, but two of the industry’s biggest ...

This device is known as a Josephson junction. It’s the foundational building block of quantum computers and advances of it ...

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.

For decades, quantum computing has been heralded as a technology of the future, promising to solve problems far beyond the reach of supercomputers. But its practical use has remained elusive. That’s ...

For all the hype surrounding quantum computers, the technology can sometimes appear to be a solution in search of a problem. Scientifically impressive, but not yet obviously useful in the real world.

Recent progress in both analog and digital quantum simulations heralds a future in which quantum computers could simulate — and thereby illuminate — physical phenomena that are far too complex for ...

A new breakthrough by Australian and international scientists shows that errors inside quantum machines are not just fleeting ...

Quantum computing promises a new generation of computers capable of solving problems hundreds of millions of times more quickly than today’s fastest supercomputers. This is done by harnessing spooky ...

Scientists have developed a new approach to correcting common quantum computing errors, which could pave the way for more ...

In the discussion following Brian Bailey's blog, Operations per Joule, the subject of quantum computing came up. I posted a couple of links, one regarding a potential type of optical quantum computer ...
