Microsoft has unveiled a new quantum processing unit, the first to be built on a topological core. Majorana 1 is named after previously-hypothesized Majorana particle, which Microsoft now believes it ...

WorldQuant Foundry, a venture studio dedicated to building world-changing companies driven by exponential technologies, today ...

Physicists at the University of the Witwatersrand in Johannesburg have identified a hidden geometric structure reaching 48 ...

Scientists at University College Cork (UCC) in Ireland have developed a powerful new tool for finding the next generation of materials needed for large-scale, fault-tolerant quantum computing. The ...

Superconductors (materials that conduct electricity without resistance) have fascinated physicists for more than a century. While conventional superconductors are well understood, a new class of ...

QTSP, which is at the core of ranking algorithms, processes higher-order data. This data is represented as graphs and transformed into other graphs. This is usually taxing for classical computers, but ...

A cluster of recent experiments and theoretical studies has produced the strongest evidence yet that spin-triplet superconductivity can be reliably generated and controlled at material interfaces, a ...

The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) has partnered with three companies for a new quantum computing program aimed at developing utility-scale systems. The US R&D agency also selected ...

(Nanowerk News) Researchers from the RIKEN Center for Quantum Computing and Huazhong University of Science and Technology have conducted a theoretical analysis demonstrating how a “topological quantum ...

There are a seemingly endless number of quantum states that describe quantum matter and the strange phenomena that emerge when large numbers of electrons interact. For decades, many of these states ...
