New York University and IBM have initiated a postdoctoral program to conduct quantum computer research in the areas of chemistry, computer science, engineering, materials science, physics, and ...

Researchers at Yale, Google, and the University of California-Santa Barbara have created a device that simulates the quantum "tunneling" behavior of protons that occurs in chemistry, a process so ...

A 135-year-old chemistry law is getting a quantum makeover. An experiment with a single quantum bit, or a qubit, has uncovered that the Arrhenius equation, which describes how reaction rates relate to ...

A joint research team between the Center for Quantum Information and Quantum Biology (QIQB) at The University of Osaka and Fixstars Corporation has demonstrated one of the world's largest classical ...

Computing hasn’t changed fundamentally since the advent of the abacus 4,500 years ago. But that could change imminently as the world ushers in the quantum computer, a radically new type of computing ...

On a winter day in Wisconsin, you can watch chemistry at work. Road salt and moisture roughen a car’s frame. Steel structures ...
