As it was explained in very plain words to me, we can imagine quantum computing as a process where calculations don’t follow each other as in regular computing but take place all at the same time. A quantum computer is able to run all the calculations simultaneously that a regular computer...
But if the challenges of constructing quantum computers are solved, quantum computing might permanently transform technology. What are bits and qubits? A classical computer stores information in a series of bits. A bit is the smallest possible unit of information; its value is either 0 or 1. A...
Entanglement is integral to quantum computing power. Pairs of qubits can be made to become entangled. This means that the two qubits then exist in a single state. In such a state, changing one qubit directly affects the other in a manner that's predictable. Quantum algorithms are designed to...
Engineers are delivering ever-more-powerful superconducting quantum processors at regular intervals, alongside crucial advances in software and quantum-classical orchestration. This work drives toward the quantum computing speed and capacity necessary to change the world. Now that the field has achieved ...

Figure 1. Comparison of Classical Computing vs. Quantum Computing in terms of four key attributes: (1) computing units; (2) computing capacity; (3) suitability; and (4) and error rates. Quantum physical systems, which leverage, for example, the orientation of a photon or spin of an elec...
Now we can get to the heart of why quantum computing is really hard: Noise. We know that when you hear that word you probably think about loud sounds like the noise coming from traffic that makes it hard to concentrate. We mean something a bit different here; noise describes all of the...
Introduction to quantum computing Learn the foundations and discover the principles for how this technology will power a transformative information age. Beginner What is quantum sensing? Learn how the fragility of quantum hardware lets us detect the undetectable and discover the principles and potential ...
Scott Pelley:Can the problems that are in the way of quantum computing be solved? Hartmut Neven: I should confess, my subtitle here is chief optimist. After having said this, I would say at this point, we don't need any more fundamental breakthroughs. We need little improvements here and...
