Programmable quantum computers have the potential to efficiently simulate increasingly complex molecular structures, electronic structures, chemical reactions, and quantum mechanical states in ...

In this episode of C&EN Uncovered, host Craig Bettenhausen speaks with C&EN assistant editor Ananya Palivela about recent advances in quantum computing. Ananya and Craig talk about the results of ...

Researchers at the quantum computing firm Quantinuum used a new Helios-1 quantum computer to simulate a mathematical model that has long been used to study superconductivity. These simulations are not ...

Studying and designing novel materials is a central application of quantum mechanics. Chemists, materials scientists, and physicists focus on subtle interactions in quantum materials and to uncover ...

Researchers at the Helmholtz-Zentrum Dresden-Rossendorf (HZDR) have developed a new procedure, enabling them to speed up elaborate computer simulations that analyze matter under extreme conditions. In ...

Physicists have spent decades arguing over whether our universe is a fundamental reality or a kind of cosmic software, and the debate has just taken a sharp turn. A group of researchers now say they ...
