When Nobel laureate Richard Feynman first suggested the idea of quantum computers, he proposed they might perform the kind of complex quantum simulations that might yield insights into next-generation ...

Physicists have built a new type of digital-analogue quantum simulator in Google’s laboratory, which can be used to study physical processes with unprecedented precision and flexibility. Two ...

Creating a quantum computer powerful enough to tackle problems we cannot solve with current computers remains a big challenge for quantum physicists. A well-functioning quantum simulator -- a specific ...

An unprecedently large quantum simulator could shed light on how exotic, potentially useful quantum materials work and help us optimise them in the future. Quantum computers may eventually harness ...

Researchers used 1,024 GPUs to run one of the world's largest quantum chemistry circuit simulations, surpassing the 40-qubit ...

An analog-digital approach to quantum simulation could lay the foundations for the next generation of supercomputers to finally outpace their classical predecessors. Reading time 3 minutes Quantum ...

Faithful simulations of the world are impossible to create using ordinary computers. Simulating physical reality is, however, the original, express purpose of quantum computers. In 1981, long before ...

Simulations of quantum many-body systems are an important goal for nuclear and high-energy physics. Many-body problems involve systems that consist of many microscopic particles interacting at the ...
