Collaborate Disseminate
Physics is mostly divided into two areas – classical physics describes how large objects and systems work on a scale that we see every day, while quantum physics describes the “spooky” subatomic world. Now, scientists have observed a rare crossover, wh… Continue reading Tiny quantum fluctuations observed moving 40-kg mirror
Researchers have managed to demonstrate quantum entanglement on a small satellite orbiting Earth. The team developed a miniaturized device that can produce pairs of photons that are inextricably linked, which could help launch a fast and secure quantum… Continue reading Quantum entanglement demonstrated on tiny CubeSat in orbit
Researchers at Empa and EPFL have created one of the smallest motors ever made. It’s composed of just 16 atoms, and at that tiny size it seems to function right on the boundary between classical physics and the spooky quantum realm.Continue ReadingCate… Continue reading Nano-motor of just 16 atoms runs at the boundary of quantum physics
Quantum entanglement is a phenomenon that’s as bizarre as it is fragile. Entangled particles are thought to lose this inexplicable link when exposed to outside factors. But now, physicists have managed to produce hot clouds of trillions of entangled at… Continue reading 15 trillion quantum entangled atoms make a record-breaking hot mess
The weird world of quantum physics is being harnessed for some fascinating use cases. In the latest example, physicists have developed and demonstrated a “quantum radar” prototype that uses the quantum entanglement phenomenon to detect objects, a syste… Continue reading “Quantum radar” uses entangled photons to detect objects
Several fields of quantum research have made their transition from research labs into commercial products, accompanied by grandiose claims. Are they as good as they say? We need people like Dr. Sarah Kaiser to independently test those claims, looking for flaws in implementation. At the 2019 Hackaday Superconference she shared …read more

Microsoft will soon begin a private preview of quantum solutions running in Azure which the company sees as the next big step for its cloud computing platform.
The post Microsoft’s Next Big Leap for Azure is Quantum appeared first on Petri.

It’s still early days for quantum computing, but we’re nonetheless seeing an interesting group of startups emerging that are helping the world take advantage of the new technology now. Aliro Technologies, a Harvard startup that has built a platform for developers to code more easily for quantum environments — “write once, run anywhere” is one […] Continue reading Aliro comes out of stealth with $2.7M to ‘democratize’ quantum computing with developer tools
Radar was a great invention that made air travel much safer and weather prediction more accurate, indeed it is even credited with winning the Battle of Britain. However, it carries a little problem with it during times of war. Painting a target with radar (or even sonar) is equivalent to …read more
Researchers from the Centre for Quantum Technologies in Singapore are helping advance a technique involving pairs of entangled light particles to enable stronger cyber security. The project, driven by the NUS-Singtel Cyber Security Research & Devel… Continue reading Scientists advance quantum key distribution tech to strengthen cyber security
