Three electrons are enough to trigger strong interactions between particles. That is what was demonstrated by scientists from the CNRS and l’Université de Grenoble Alpes, in collaboration with teams from Germany and Latvia, in a study published in the journal Nature.Quantum Physics NewsRead More
Quantum computers can solve extraordinarily complex problems, unlocking new possibilities in fields such as drug development, encryption, AI, and logistics. Now, researchers at Chalmers University of Technology in Sweden have developed a highly efficient amplifier that activates only when reading information from qubits. The study was published in the journal IEEE Transactions on Microwave Theory
For over a decade, researchers have considered boson sampling—a quantum computing protocol involving light particles—as a key milestone toward demonstrating the advantages of quantum methods over classical computing. But while previous experiments showed that boson sampling is hard to simulate with classical computers, practical uses have remained out of reach.Quantum Physics NewsRead More
Landauer’s principle is a thermodynamics concept also relevant in information theory, which states that erasing one bit of information from an information system results in the dissipation of at least a specific amount (i.e., kBTln2) of energy. This principle has so far been primarily considered in the context of classical computers and information processing systems.Quantum
