One of the deepest ambitions in modern physics is understanding how the fabric of space and time could emerge from ...

Researchers have demonstrated that the theoretically optimal scaling for magic state distillation—a critical bottleneck in fault-tolerant quantum computing—is achievable for qubits, improving on the ...

Luke Coffman, a senior double majoring in physics and math, has been recognized for his outstanding research with a Stephen Halley White Undergraduate Research Award. The award is one of the top ...

In the context of quantum mechanics and information, "magic" is a key property of quantum states that describes the extent to which they deviate from so-called stabilizer states. Stabilizer states are ...

Making quantum computers fault-tolerant (and scaling effective error correction to enable this) is a key barrier to a new era of quantum supremacy. A new study ...

Queen Mary University of London physicist Professor Chris White, along with his twin brother Professor Martin White from the University of Adelaide, have discovered a surprising connection between the ...

For all its promise, quantum computing suffers from its own fragility. Even the slightest disturbance can scramble the information encoded in a quantum bit. UC Santa Barbara physics professor Andrea ...

The development of quantum computers will make everything "happen better", a researcher at a top university has said. A team from Oxford University’s department of physics are among researchers from ...

Here’s what you’ll learn when you read this story: Making quantum computers fault-tolerant (and scaling effective error correction to enable this) is a key ...
