On February 29, 2024, the National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology (AIST) and Keysight Technologies signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) to collaborate on quantum research and to drive the industrialization of quantum technologies.

Mphasis, an Information Technology (IT) solutions provider specializing in cloud and cognitive services, today announced its strategic partnership with Classiq, a leading quantum software company to demonstrate and commercialize industry solutions powered by Quantum.

Researchers from Cleveland Clinic and IBM recently published findings in the Journal of Chemical Theory and Computation that could lay the groundwork for applying quantum computing methods to protein structure prediction. This publication is the first peer-reviewed quantum computing paper from the Cleveland Clinic-IBM Discovery Accelerator partnership.

As part of the Center for Quantum Leaps, a signature initiative of the Arts & Sciences strategic plan, physicist Kater Murch and his research group use nano-fabrication techniques to construct superconducting quantum circuits that allow them to probe fundamental questions in quantum mechanics. Qubits are promising systems for realizing quantum schemes for computation, simulation and data encryption.

Strongly interacting systems play an important role in quantum physics and quantum chemistry. Stochastic methods such as Monte Carlo simulations are a proven method for investigating such systems. However, these methods reach their limits when so-called sign oscillations occur. This problem has now been solved by an international team of researchers from Germany, Turkey, the USA, China, South Korea and France using the new method of wavefunction matching. As an example, the masses and radii of all nuclei up to mass number 50 were calculated using this method. The results agree with the measurements, the researchers now report in the journal “Nature”.

Terra Quantum was recognized by Handelsblatt as Europe's highest-valued quantum technology company, showcasing its strong position in the rapidly evolving quantum technology landscape and dedication to delivering cutting-edge solutions.

We are surrounded by optimization problems – for example, what’s the most efficient route for getting all your chores done on a Sunday? What’s the best way to pack a suitcase? Modern businesses can’t escape the importance of optimization problems, they’re critical in everything from charting shipping routes to setting prices.

The advance offers a way to characterize a fundamental resource needed for quantum computing.
