Study shows neutrons can bind to nanoscale atomic clusters known as quantum dots. The finding may provide insights into material properties and quantum effects.

Four University of Waterloo researchers, including Dr. Michael Reimer, a faculty member at the Institute for Quantum Computing and a professor in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, were awarded funding earlier this month from the Ontario government for innovative research that ranges from cleaning up arsenic-laden mine waste, treating potential virus outbreaks, and using artificial intelligence to protect valuable financial data.

The unique properties of quantum physics could help solve a longstanding problem that prevents microscopes from producing sharper images at the smallest scales, researchers say. The breakthrough, which uses entangled photons to create a new method of correcting for image distortion in microscopes, could lead to improved classical microscope imaging of tissue samples to help advance medical research.

The European Innovation Council (EIC) has selected 27 projects for follow on funding to scale up key quantum, health and measurement technologies.

University of Nottingham spin-out company Cerca Magnetics has been awarded £2m as part of £45 million government investment in the UK's quantum sector for wearable brain imaging research to help detect early signs of dementia.

Accenture (NYSE:ACN) and SandboxAQ are partnering to deliver artificial intelligence (AI) and quantum computing solutions to help organizations identify and remediate cybersecurity vulnerabilities.

The Ontario government is investing up to $14.9 million to support a project by Quantum Valley Ideas Lab (QVIL), an independent research laboratory in Waterloo, that will accelerate the development and adoption of quantum science technologies by Ontario companies.

Infleqtion, the world’s leading quantum information company, today announced the addition of six industry luminaries to its Board of Directors, Advisory Board, and leadership team.
