The Sun is much more than just a source of light for Earth – it’s a dynamic and complex star, with storms, flares, and movement causing it to change constantly. Magnetic fields govern most of the solar activity we can observe but how they do this is still poorly understood. New results based on simulations […]

Quantum computers promise significantly shorter computing times for complex problems. But there are still only a few quantum computers worldwide with a limited number of so-called qubits. However, quantum computer algorithms can already run on conventional servers that simulate a quantum computer. A team at Helmholtz-Zentrum Berlin (HZB) has succeeded to calculate the electron orbitals […]

Whether developing new technologies for landing on other planets, improving air travel here at home, or more realistically simulating global weather and climate, supercomputing is key to the success of NASA missions. These advances and more were on display in the agency’s hybrid exhibit during SC22, the International Conference for High Performance Computing, Networking, Storage […]

For the first time, scientists have entangled atoms for use as networked quantum sensors, specifically, atomic clocks and accelerometers. The research team’s experimental setup yielded ultraprecise measurements of time and acceleration. Compared to a similar setup that does not draw on quantum entanglement, their time measurements were 3.5 times more precise, and acceleration measurements exhibited […]

Quantum memory devices can store data as quantum states instead of binary states, as classical computer memories do. While some existing quantum memory technologies have achieved highly promising results, several challenges will need to be overcome before they can be implemented on a large scale. The post A Scalable Quantum Memory with a Lifetime over […]

With atomic precision, scientists built a testbed to manipulate electrons in entirely new ways with potential applications in quantum computing. Electrons are tiny objects that can carry electricity and information across materials and between devices. They are often visualized as discrete spheres, either moving through a circuit or connected to an atom. While this classical […]

Nanoengineers at the University of California San Diego’s Jacobs School of Engineering have developed an AI algorithm that predicts the structure and dynamic properties of any material—whether existing or new—almost instantaneously. Known as M3GNet, the algorithm was used to develop matterverse.ai, a database of more than 31 million yet-to-be-synthesized materials with properties predicted by machine […]

There are close to five to six quantum computing technologies being developed, and they all require different levels of expertise or optimization on the top of the system, Jim Clarke, director of quantum hardware at Intel Labs, told HPCwire. The post Quantum Riches and Hardware Diversity Are Discouraging Collaboration appeared first on HPCwire.

Hundreds of millions of tons of polymer materials are produced globally for use in a vast and ever-growing application space with new material demands such as green chemistry polymers, consumer packaging, adhesives, automotive components, fabrics and solar cells. The post ML Model Instantly Predicts Polymer Properties appeared first on HPCwire.

A universal quantum computer with a million qubits will solve a wide range of problems, but even then, offloading entire problems to a quantum circuit may not be the best use of resources. With that in mind, companies and researchers are paying more attention to the concept of quantum-circuit cutting, which breaks down large quantum […]
