Understanding the chemical properties of a molecule is an inherently quantum problem, making quantum computers a good tool ...

After the applied mathematician Peter Shor, then at Bell Labs in New Jersey, showed that a quantum algorithm could, in theory ...

A quantum computer and conventional supercomputer that work together could become an invaluable tool for understanding chemicals. A collaboration between IBM and the Japanese scientific institute ...

Researchers from the Faculty of Engineering at The University of Hong Kong (HKU) have made a significant discovery regarding ...

Can quantum computers already do more than their fragile hardware seems to allow? PhD student Marten Folkertsma (CWI, QuSoft) ...

In a new paper published in The Journal of Chemical Theory and Computation, researchers from IBM Quantum and Lockheed Martin demonstrate how a quantum computer can help accurately model the electronic ...

A gold superconducting quantum computer hangs against a black background. Quantum computers, like the one shown here, could someday allow chemists to solve problems that classical computers can’t.

Quantum chemistry calculations offer the best combination of efficiency and accuracy for predicting molecular properties. But the complexity of density functional theory and other methods makes them ...

On May 7, 1981, influential physicist Richard Feynman gave a keynote speech at Caltech. Feynman opened his talk by politely rejecting the very notion of a keynote speech, instead saying that he had ...
