Quantum computing headlines increasingly suggest bitcoin is on the verge of collapse, with claims that future machines could crack its cryptography in minutes or overwhelm the network entirely. But ...

Researchers in Ania Bleszynski Jayich’s lab use a mechanical resonator to enable greater entanglement for potentially more powerful sensors. Most people think of diamonds as high-end adornments. Not ...

A better, more reliable definition of temperature could come from a quantum device full of giant atoms. While some countries measure temperatures in Celsius and others use Fahrenheit, physicists ...

Quantum computers, computing systems that process information using quantum mechanical effects, could outperform classical computers on some computational tasks. These computers rely on qubits, the ...

After 30 months of fast-paced innovation in quantum algorithms, six research groups are hoping to hit paydirt. But there can be only one big winner—if there is a winner at all. I’m standing in front ...

Looking ahead: Quantum computing's greatest promise remains its greatest paradox: the same conditions that let qubits perform extraordinary feats of calculation also make them exceptionally fragile.

Data from a new Nature study shows the feasibility of engineering a quantum mechanical process inside biological proteins. The study, which was led by an engineering team at the University of Oxford, ...

When scientists repeatedly drove a strongly interacting quantum system with laser “kicks,” they expected it to heat up and grow chaotic. Instead, the atoms abruptly stopped absorbing energy and locked ...

Quantum information theory is a field of study that examines how quantum technologies store and process information. Over the past decades, researchers have introduced several new quantum information ...

Whether quantum computers can actually solve practical problems is one of the biggest unanswered questions of this growing industry – and one that might be answered by researchers in industrial and ...
