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 ...

Over the past few years, researchers have developed various quantum technologies, alternatives to classical devices that operate by leveraging the principles of quantum mechanics. These technologies ...

Scientists have redefined gravity to explain the Big Bang and perhaps change our picture of the earliest moments of the cosmos. This new framework of "quantum gravity" may explain aspects of the Big ...

Built with the help of AI agents, Microsoft's Majorana 2 takes a different approach to quantum computing, focusing on hardware-level stability as rivals like Google push scaling and error correction ...

Albert Einstein’s theory of gravity, general relativity, is famously incomplete. As proven by physics Nobel laureate Roger Penrose, when matter collapses under its own gravitational pull, the result ...

Did you know that China has invested over $15 billion in quantum computing research? This staggering figure highlights the intense global competition to lead in this groundbreaking technology. Quantum ...

Quantum computing could change the world. It could transform medicine, break encryption and revolutionise communications and artificial intelligence. Companies like IBM, Microsoft and Google are ...

Microsoft's Majorana 2 in 2026 is 1,000 times more reliable than its predecessor, thanks to AI. Here is why the 2029 goal for quantum computers is now reachable.

Repulsive gravity at the quantum scale would have flattened out inhomogeneities in the early universe First light The cosmic microwave background, as imaged by the European Space Agency’s Planck ...
