Using a powerful machine made up of 56 trapped-ion quantum bits, or qubits, researchers have achieved something once thought impossible. They have proven, for the first time, that a quantum computer ...

Project Eleven, a quantum security research company, awarded a prize to researcher Giancarlo Lelli for using a quantum computer to break a 15-bit elliptic-curve key — a small-scale version of the same ...

With around 26,000 qubits, the encryption could be broken in a day, the researchers report in a paper submitted March 30 to arXiv.org. Another prevalent form of encryption, RSA–2048, would require 100 ...

Machine learning is the hottest topic in computing today, but what may become the most consequential development is being ...

A new "geometry‑based" quantum swap gate makes neutral‑atom computers far less sensitive to laser noise.

Just this past month, both Google’s Quantum AI team and a Cal Tech startup named Oratomic both produced papers that stated ...

A quantum tech firm that has collaborated with—and received investment from—Amgen is now planning to go public. | A quantum ...

It’s a challenge that’s long been one of the holy grails of quantum computing: how to create the key building blocks known as quantum bits, or qubits, that exist in a solid-state system at room ...

Two Wall Street giants walk different paths when it comes to quantum research.

Researchers and tech companies are in a global race to develop quantum computers that can solve hard scientific problems that conventional computers can’t, and that they hope can eventually support ...
