IonQ and Rigetti Computing took divergent paths to building quantum computers, but one is achieving greater success.

"God does not play dice." This famous remark by Albert Einstein critiqued the probabilistic nature of quantum mechanics. Paradoxically, his theory of relativity has become an essential tool for ...

Scientists tackle one of the most challenging problems in physics--the interplay between quantum theory and gravity—from a different angle.

Many of these firsts make up what Nokia Bell Labs refers to as Quantum 1.0 technologies, those that originated from the field of quantum mechanics.

Black hole and Big Bang singularities break our best theory of gravity. A trilogy of theorems hints that physicists must go to the ends of space and time to find a fix.

Newly emerging quantum networking technologies could help scientists unlock the secrets of curved spacetime.

A Bitcoin Improvement Proposal aims to phase out vulnerable legacy signatures and introduce quantum-resistant alternatives to protect Bitcoin from emerging quantum computing risks.

Development of different quantum technologies is progressing at different speeds. Closely monitoring technological advancements in five key areas will be key to implementing quantum policy effectively ...

A Revolution in Next-Gen Computing Quantum computing, poised to revolutionize industries from cryptography to drug discovery, leverages quantum mechanics to solve complex problems exponentially ...

By using complicated quantum mechanics, quantum computers can (theoretically) instantly solve hypercomplex problems that would take years for traditional supercomputers to calculate.
