Ripples spreading across a calm lake after raindrops fall—and the way ripples from different drops overlap and travel outward—is one image that helps us picture how a quantum computer handles ...

Scientists at the Institute of Science Tokyo have announced a breakthrough in quantum error correction that could bring a large-scale quantum computer closer to ...

Universal fault-tolerant quantum computing relies on the implementation of quantum error correction. An essential milestone is the achievement of error-corrected ...

Flawed scientific articles don't just clutter journals—they misguide policies, waste taxpayer funds, and endanger lives.

To shrink error rates in quantum computers, sometimes more is better. More qubits, that is. The quantum bits, or qubits, that make up a quantum computer are prone to ...

When running a server, especially one with mission-critical applications, it’s common practice to use error-correcting code (ECC) memory. As the name suggests, it uses an error-correcting algorithm to ...

Quantum Circuits Inc., a spinout from Yale University building a novel quantum computing platform, today announced it has raised more than $60 million in an early-stage funding round that will allow ...

If you’ve ever sent a text message, played a CD, or stored a file in the cloud, you’ve benefited from error correction. This revolutionary idea dates back to the ...

Mistakes happen — especially in quantum computers. The fragile quantum bits, or qubits, that make up the machines are notoriously error-prone, but now scientists have shown that they can fix the flubs ...
