Environmental decoherence processes are reasonably well understood at the atomic scale 9 (although some poorly understood noisy sources remain 10). However both quantum information processing, and the ...

The physics of low-energy quantum systems is usually studied without explicit consideration of the background spacetime. Phenomena inherent to quantum theory in curved spacetime, such as Hawking ...

Quantum computers, which operate leveraging quantum mechanics effects, could soon outperform traditional computers in some ...

Your support goes further this holiday season. When you buy an annual membership or give a one-time contribution, we’ll give a membership to someone who can’t afford access. It’s a simple way for you ...

This study demonstrates how integrating decoherence-free subspaces with dynamical decoupling enhances quantum state fidelity, offering a practical route to more noise-resilient quantum computing ...

Quantum computing faces many technology challenges, but some researchers say they’ll be solved soon to usher in the Quantum Decade. There’s no point in having a quantum computer if it’s not smokin’ ...

I have suggested before that the one thing “everyone knows” about quantum mechanics is that the quantum world is fuzzy and uncertain. Actually, there’s another thing, too. “Everyone” has heard of ...

Devices like lasers and other semiconductor-based technologies operate on the principles of quantum mechanics, but they only scratch the surface. To fully exploit quantum phenomena, scientists are ...
