25 km quantum network link between Dutch cities represents a key advance
Artist impression of the connection (entanglement) between the demonstrated quantum network connection. The two authors, Kian van de Ende & Arian Stolk, represent the quantum computers at either end of…
How a classical computer beat a quantum computer at its own game
An illustration of a quantum system that was simulated by both classical and quantum computers. The highlighted sections show how the influence of the system’s components is confined to nearby…

Researchers use high-performance computing to analyze a quantum photonics experiment
Scientists at Paderborn University have for the first time used high-performance computing (on the right in the picture the Paderborn supercomputer Noctua) to analyze a quantum photonics experiment on a…
Room-temperature nonreciprocal Hall effect could heat up future technology development
The researchers deposited textured platinum nanoparticles, represented by red triangles, on a silicon semiconductor, represented by the blue rectangle. Electrons, represented by the white circles and arrows, asymmetrically scatter from…
