Breakthrough ‘physics shortcut’ solves quantum problems on ordinary laptop
A team of physicists from the University at Buffalo has developed a user-friendly method that allows researchers to solve complex quantum problems, once thought to require massive supercomputers, on an ordinary laptop.
Imagine zooming into matter at the quantum scale, where tiny particles can interact in more than a trillion configurations at once.
Right now, quantum computers are small and error-prone compared to where they'll likely be in a few years. Even within those limitations, however, there have been regular claims that the hardware can perform in ways that are impossible to match with ...
Progress in the foundations of physics is moving slowly. And yet it moves. Today I look at the five biggest problems in physics, what their status is, and how long it will ta
New landmark peer-reviewed paper published in Science, “Beyond-Classical Computation in Quantum Simulation,” unequivocally validates D-Wave’s achievement of the world’s first and only demonstration of quantum computational supremacy on a useful ...
