On May 7, 1981, influential physicist Richard Feynman gave a keynote speech at Caltech. Feynman opened his talk by politely rejecting the very notion of a keynote speech, instead saying that he had ...

Computing hasn’t changed fundamentally since the advent of the abacus 4,500 years ago. But that could change imminently as the world ushers in the quantum computer, a radically new type of computing ...

A quantum computer and conventional supercomputer that work together could become an invaluable tool for understanding chemicals. A collaboration between IBM and the Japanese scientific institute ...

A new computational approach developed at the University of Chicago promises to shed light on some of the world's most puzzling materials—from high-temperature superconductors to solar cell ...

In a new paper published in The Journal of Chemical Theory and Computation, researchers from IBM Quantum and Lockheed Martin demonstrate how a quantum computer can help accurately model the electronic ...

The real test of any new quantum chemistry method is whether it can explain or predict behavior in materials that matter for technology. In this case, the LAS‑based approach has already been applied ...

Researchers have achieved a major milestone in quantum computing after successfully generating “truly random” numbers using the next-generation machines. Quantum computers hold the potential to be ...
