D-Wave Quantum Inc., (“D-Wave” or the “Company”) a leader in quantum computing systems, software, and services, today announced financial results for its fourth fiscal quarter and year ended December 31, 2024.

Nuclear physicists at the University of Washington developed a new framework to systematically analyze the interplay of these approximations. They showed that the impact of such approximations can be minimized by tuning simulation parameters. Such optimizations are demonstrated in the context of spin models sharing key features with nuclear interactions.

SEEQC is installing the UK’s first-of-its-kind Cross-Qubit Scaling Platform at the National Quantum Computing Centre (NQCC) in Oxfordshire.

Lockheed Martin has been awarded a contract by the U.S. Department of Defense's Innovation Unit (DIU) to prototype quantum-enabled Inertial Navigation System (INS). This innovative technology has the potential to revolutionize navigation capabilities for warfighters, providing precise location measurements even in environments without access to GPS.

Oxford Ionics, a world leader in trapped-ion quantum computing, today announced that it has been selected by the UK’s DSIT and Innovate UK for the Quantum Missions pilot to unlock scalable and commercially-useful quantum computing.

BTQ Technologies Corp. (the "Company"), a global quantum technology company focused on securing mission-critical networks, is pleased to announce the appointment of Dr. Gavin Brennen as Chief Quantum Officer (CQO). Dr. Brennen, who has already been serving as Quantum Information Advisor and Director of BTQ Australia, will now also drive the company's global technological roadmap and strategy.

QuamCore, a deep tech startup redefining quantum computing scalability, announced today its emergence from stealth with $9 million in seed funding. Founded in 2022, QuamCore has spent the past two years developing its breakthrough superconducting quantum processor architecture, working in stealth mode to solve the critical scalability challenges that have long prevented practical quantum computing. The company has now emerged with a patented architecture that enables the integration of 1 million qubits into a single cryostat - a milestone previously thought impossible. This breakthrough dramatically reduces the size, energy consumption, and cost of quantum computers, unlocking practical applications across pharmaceuticals, AI, materials science, and energy.

Osaka Metropolitan University physicists have developed new, simpler formulas to quantify quantum entanglement in strongly correlated electron systems and applied them to study several nanoscale materials. Their results offer fresh perspectives into quantum behaviors in materials with different physical characteristics, contributing to advances in quantum technologies.

Led by Professor Pasquale Scarlino at EPFL, they developed a superconducting Kerr resonator, a device with controllable quantum properties, and engineered it to experience a two-photon drive, which sends pairs of photons into the system to carefully control its quantum state and study how it transitions between different phases.

Newly achieved precise control over light emitted from incredibly tiny sources, a few nanometers in size, embedded in two-dimensional (2D) materials could lead to remarkably high-resolution monitors and advances in ultra-fast quantum computing, according to an international team led by researchers at Penn State and Université Paris-Saclay.
