Quantum walks sound abstract, but they sit at the center of a very concrete race: who will harness quantum mechanics to solve problems that overwhelm today’s most powerful supercomputers. Instead of ...

An international research team has developed a particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm based on quantum computing for real-time maximum power point tracking (MPPT) implementation in PV systems.

What is the Q-Day prize? The Q-Day Prize is a challenge to make the Bitcoin network quantum resistant. On April 16, 2025, quantum computing-focused company Project 11 announced the “Q-Day Prize,” a ...

The reliable engineering of quantum states, particularly those involving several particles, is central to the development of various quantum technologies, including quantum computers, sensors and ...

APSCHE extends registration for the quantum computing certification course until February 23, offering key resources for students.

To do that, I will start with what quantum computers actually are, then look at how they might reshape medicine, longevity science, and our understanding of aging. Only after that is it possible to ...

New research says today’s quantum computers are far too weak to threaten Bitcoin’s cryptography, leaving the network years to prepare.
