Breakthroughs in Quantum Computing Come With Security Concerns

Researchers from the University of Southern California (USC) have found a way to improve the performance of quantum computers. The discovery might help in efficiently scaling quantum computing technologies to address complex problems. However, scientists also warn that the creation of powerful quantum computers can have devastating consequences on current security practices. Improving quantum computing ...

The Angel Particle and What It Can Do for Quantum Computers

In 2017, an experiment proposed by Stanford theorists found evidence for the Majorana fermion, a particle that is allegedly its own antiparticle. Stanford and University of California researchers found evidence of particles that are their own antiparticles, also known as Majorana particles. The theoretical groundwork was done by Stanford Professor Shoucheng Zhang and his group. ...

What Is Quantum Computing?

Quantum computing, if it ever gets started, might help us solve problems, like modeling complex chemical processes, that our existing computers can’t even scratch the surface of. However, unlike regular computers that can solve multiple problems, a quantum computer, at the moment, is far better at solving one specific problem only. Companies and researchers are using ...
