University of Chicago A team of researchers, including members of the University of Chicago’s Institute for Molecular Engineering, highlight the power of emerging quantum technologies in two recent papers published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. These technologies exploit quantum mechanics, the physics that dominates the atomic world, to perform disparate tasks such as nanoscale temperature measurement and processing quantum information with lasers. The two...
BURNABY, British Columbia and PALO ALTO, Calif., May 22, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- D-Wave Systems Inc., the world's first commercial quantum computing company, today announced the publication of a peer-reviewed paper entitled "Thermally assisted quantum annealing of a 16-qubit problem" in the journal Nature Communications. The paper presents the results of the first experimental exploration of the effect of thermal noise on quantum annealing. Quantum annealing is the process by which...
As mobile security and privacy remains a top priority, Tigerspike is proud to announce the release of Kaicomm, a method of converting mobile devices into secure communication tools, using Tigerspike's leading encryption technology, Karacell. (PRWEB) May 22, 2013 Unsecured information travelling wirelessly is a growing concern for organisations.

University of Innsbruck "When water boils, its molecules are released as vapor. We call this change of the physical state of matter a phase transition," explains Sebastian Diehl from the Institute of Theoretical Physics at the University of Innsbruck. Together with his colleagues from the Institute for Experimental Physics and the theorist Markus Mueller from the Complutense University of Madrid, he studied the transition between two quantum mechanical orders in a way never before...
redOrbit Staff & Wire Reports - Your Universe Online Google and NASA are joining forces to create a new research laboratory that will use a quantum supercomputer to study artificial intelligence and machine learning, according to various media reports. The Mountain View, California-based computing company and the US space agency’s new Quantum Artificial Intelligence Lab will be hosted at the Ames Research Center in California and will include a quantum supercomputer supplied by...
System to be Installed at NASA's Ames Research Center, and Operational in Q3 BURNABY, British Columbia and PALO ALTO, Calif., May 16, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- D-Wave Systems Inc., the world's first commercial quantum computing company, today announced that its new 512-qubit quantum computer, the D-Wave Two, will be installed at the new Quantum Artificial Intelligence Lab, a collaboration among NASA, Google and the Universities Space Research Association (USRA). The purpose...
Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory From brain to heart to stomach, the bodies of humans and animals generate weak magnetic fields that a supersensitive detector could use to pinpoint illnesses, trace drugs – and maybe even read minds. Sensors no bigger than a thumbnail could map gas deposits underground, analyze chemicals, and pinpoint explosives that hide from other probes. Now scientists at the U.S. Department of Energy’s Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (Berkeley Lab) and...
Enid Burns for redOrbit.com – Your Universe Online Quantum computing just took a step from theory to practice with a test that took place at Amherst College in Massachusetts. An experimental quantum computer developed by D-Wave Systems was able to solve a problem 3,600 times faster than a conventional computer, the New York Times reports. Catherine McGeoch, the Beitzel Professor in Technology and Society in the computer science department at Amherst College administered the test. She...
Synthetic Diamond Material Integral to Achieving Quantum Entanglement Between Atom-like Defects in Two Pieces of Diamond, Driving Advancements in Information Technologies and Fundamental Physics SAN FRANCISCO, May 3, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Element Six, the world leader in synthetic diamond supermaterials and member of the De Beers Group of Companies, today announced in collaboration with Delft University of Technology the entanglement of electron spin qubits (quantum bits) in two...
University of California - Santa Barbara By using light, researchers at UC Santa Barbara have manipulated the quantum state of a single atomic-sized defect in diamond –– the nitrogen-vacancy center –– in a method that not only allows for more unified control than conventional processes, but is more versatile, and opens up the possibility of exploring new solid-state quantum systems. Their results are published in the latest edition of the Proceedings of the National Academy of the...
