New Stable Quantum Batteries Can Reliably Store Energy in Electromagnetic Fields
Quantum technologies, i.e. technological devices obtained by building and manipulating quantum mechanical systems, are becoming a reality. The most prominent example is given by quantum computers, where the unit of information, the bit, is replaced by its quantum...
Researchers Demonstrate Error Correction in a Silicon Qubit System
Researchers from RIKEN in Japan have achieved a major step toward large-scale quantum computing by demonstrating error correction in a three-qubit silicon-based quantum computing system. This work, published in Nature, could pave the way toward the achievement of...
Energy Savings with Quantum Computing – Fact or Fiction?
Quantum computing promises to redefine the boundaries of computation and has also been touted as a potential game-changer in energy savings. The technology’s potential to enable new material discovery, improve EV batteries and solar cells, optimize logistic routes,...
National Quantum Information Science Research Centers Harness the Quantum Revolution
Five National Quantum Information Science Research Centers are leveraging the behavior of nature at the smallest scales to develop technologies for science’s most complex problems. Funded by the Department of Energy’s Office of Science, the NQISRCs have been...
AWS Takes the Short and Long View of Quantum Computing
It is perhaps not surprising that the big cloud providers – a poor term really – have jumped into quantum computing. Amazon, Microsoft Azure, Google, and their like have steadily transformed into major technology developers, no doubt in service of their large cloud...
Why AI Alone Won’t Solve Drug Discovery
Verseon is an AI-powered drug company – in theory, anyway. The Bay Area startup does use machine learning to help predict which combination of molecules will yield novel compound to test in the lab. With over a dozen drug candidates at different stages of development,...
Why NASA is testing its Valkyrie humanoid in Australia
NASA’s humanoid robot, Valkyrie, is starting a new mission in Australia. The robot will put its skills to the test as part of a reimbursable Space Act Agreement with Woodside Energy in Perth, Western Australia. The NASA dexterous robotics team from the Johnson Space...
Cross-Institutional Collaboration Leads to New Control over Quantum Dot Qubits
Qubits are the building blocks of quantum computers, which have the potential to revolutionize many fields of research by solving problems that classical computers can’t. But creating qubits that have the perfect quality necessary for quantum computing can be...
Researchers Report Counterintuitive Friction Effect
When two metal surfaces slide against each other, a variety of complicated phenomena occur that lead to friction and wear: Small crystalline regions, of which metals are typically composed, can be deformed, twisted or broken, or even fuse together. It is important for...
Leveraging Exascale Era Technology for Advanced Computer-Aided Engineering
How can manufacturers apply lessons learned from the dawn of the “Exascale Era” to Computer-Aided Engineering to achieve results like never before? Join Addison Snell, CEO, Intersect360 Research, Bill Mannel, VP, High Performance Computing, HPE and Kumaran Siva,...
Overcoming Challenges to Big Data Analytics Workloads with Well-Designed Infrastructure
Using big data analytics and predictive analytics through deep learning (DL) are essential strategies to make smarter, more informed decisions and provide competitive advantages for your organization. But these tactics are not simple to execute, and they require a...
