Researchers kept more than 6,000 qubits coherent while operating with 99.98% accuracy. Here's why that matters for quantum ...

While William Rowan Hamilton isn’t a household name like, say, Einstein or Hawking, he might have been. It turns out the ...

Astrophysicist Paul Sutter explains Quantum Mechanics - the body of scientific laws that describe the wacky behavior of photons, electrons and the other particles that make up the universe.

Dan Blumenthal & collaborators work to translate various functions of current cold-atom quantum experiments to a more portable and deployable form From The UCSB Current article "Chip-scale cold atom ...

Amid high expectations for quantum technology, a new paper in Science reports a proven quantum advantage. In an experiment, ...

The London-based bank said it used a combination of classical computing and quantum computing to deliver a 34% improvement in algorithmic bond trade predictions.

Researchers from Delft University of Technology in the Netherlands have been able to see the magnetic nucleus of an atom switch back and forth in real time. They read out the nuclear "spin" via the ...

We’re celebrating 180 years of Scientific American. Explore our legacy of discovery and look ahead to the future. This year is the International Year of Quantum Science and Technology, according to ...

A research team has created a quantum logic gate that uses fewer qubits by encoding them with the powerful GKP error-correction code. By entangling quantum vibrations inside a single atom, they ...

A US military spaceplane, the X-37B orbital test vehicle embarked on its eighth flight into space on Thursday. Much of what the X-37B does in space is secret. But it serves partly as a platform for ...

We’ve long marveled at how efficiently plants convert sunlight into energy—but no one guessed they were using quantum mechanics to do it. In this episode, we speak with Greg Engel, a pioneering ...
