A view inside the trapped-ion quantum computer that carried out a first-of-its-kind simulation of molecular chemistry. A single atom has performed the first full quantum simulations of how certain ...

A single atom has performed the first full quantum simulations of how certain molecules react to light. The researchers who carried out the feat say that their minimalistic approach could dramatically ...

Pasqal has been selected by the European High-Performance Computing Joint Undertaking (EuroHPC JU) to provide a neutral atom-based quantum simulator. The contract is valued at €13 million ($14m) and ...

Russia has quietly vaulted into the front rank of quantum powers with a neutral-atom machine that combines a 72-qubit scale ...

French quantum computing company Pasqal has delivered a 100 qubit quantum computer to Germany’s Jülich Supercomputing Centre (JSC) at Forschungszentrum Jülich. As part of the HPCQS (High-Performance ...

Rydberg atoms, characterised by their highly excited electronic states, have emerged as a pivotal resource in exploring quantum simulation. Their exaggerated electromagnetic properties enable strong, ...

Physicists are now using a tightly controlled laser and a cloud of ultracold atoms to imitate the behavior of electrons in solids, effectively building a quantum version of electronics out of light ...

Atoms in the optical lattice, trapped at a distance of 0.5 micron, are excited to the Rydberg state by the ultrafast excitation technique. Interaction between close Rydberg atoms results in the ...

After decades of looking, researchers have seen a string of atoms go through a 1D phase change so elusive that it could only happen inside a quantum simulator. “One motivation [for our experiment] is ...

Researchers created a synthetic magnetic field using a superconducting quantum processor, which could enable them to precisely study complex phenomena in materials, like phase changes. This could shed ...

An analog-digital approach to quantum simulation could lay the foundations for the next generation of supercomputers to finally outpace their classical predecessors. Reading time 3 minutes Quantum ...
