Four decades ago, physicists were theorizing that the mind-bending mechanics of quantum physics could be harnessed to make a new kind of computer that’s exponentially more powerful than conventional machines.

A new federal initiative to build a quantum supercomputer could transform everything from encryption to drug discovery, creating the next wave of winners and losers.

The White House has issued an executive order aiming to unify and accelerate U.S. development of quantum technologies, including space systems that could enable next-generation navigation, sensing and secure communications.

Researchers from the University of Sydney, working with IBM, have identified and quantified important factors limiting the performance of quantum computers and demonstrated ways to overcome their impact.

Quantum science and AI research are big winners just a year after this U.S. funding giant slashed its Graduate Research Fellowship Program awards in half Researchers have developed a way to flip time to move backward in a quantum system. This level of control could lead to bizarre real-world applications

Quantum computers are coming. Or, at least, that’s what current predictions say. These machines harness the power of quantum mechanics, the set of rules governing how physics operates at atomic and sub-atomic scales.

A team of theoretical researchers has found duality can unveil non-invertible symmetry protected topological phases, which can lead to researchers understanding more about the properties of these phases, and uncover new quantum ... An old puzzle in ...

Researchers in Sweden have developed a machine-learning approach that embeds the laws of physics directly into neural networks.

Quantum entanglement is often described as one of nature’s strangest secrets. Now, scientists have found it inside a crystal large enough to see without a microscope. The discovery shows that quantum connections can exist on a much bigger scale than previously thought.
