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…
Scientists provide direct evidence of breakdown of spin statistics in ion-atom charge exchange collisions
