This research demonstrates that quantum algorithms scale to 97 physical qubits using the Steane code for fault-tolerant error ...

A new hybrid quantum-classical algorithm tackles the NP-hard minimum distance problem for quantum error-correcting codes, ...

Every second counts in environmental monitoring, yet the clocks behind the sensors that watch our air are far less reliable than we might like to believe. When an automatic monitoring station records ...

This quantum error correction algorithm is highly sensitive, capable of accurately detecting even minor errors in qubits. It also exhibits strong robustness, enabling it to quickly and precisely ...

In what specific cases do quantum computers surpass their classical counterparts? That’s a hard question to answer, in part because today’s quantum computers are finicky things, plagued with errors ...

Getting your Trinity Audio player ready... The new algorithm was supposed to help distribute lungs more fairly to people who desperately needed life-saving transplants. But a flaw in the process for ...
