In the everyday world, governed by classical physics, the concept of equilibrium reigns. If you put a drop of ink into water, it will eventually evenly mix. If you put a glass of ice water on the ...

Scientists have developed a new way to read the hidden states of Majorana qubits, which store information in paired quantum ...

But quantum computing uses “quantum bits,” also known as “qubits.” Instead of being either zero or one, qubits can behave like zero or one simultaneously and exist in states between zero and one, ...

Quantum computing technology is complex, getting off the ground and maturing. There is promise of things to come. potentially changing the computing paradigm.

Scientists have taken another major step toward creating stable quantum computers. Using a specialized quantum computer chip (an essential component of a quantum computer) as a kind of tiny laboratory ...
