Guest Post — The Quantum Inflection Point: Charting a Science-First Roadmap for the Nation
By Dr. Darío Gil, the Under Secretary for Science at the U.S. Department of Energy. His office is the nation’s largest federal sponsor of basic research in the physical sciences, supporting all 17 National Laboratories of the United States, and responsible for programs including advanced computing, fusion, nuclear and high energy particle physics, basic energy […]
Quantum Simulation Explained: Applications, Methods and Challenges
Insider Brief A molecule with fifty interacting particles needs more numbers to describe its full quantum state than a classical supercomputer can store. That’s the wall classical chemistry keeps hitting, and it’s why physicist Richard Feynman proposed the idea that if you want to simulate a quantum system accurately, build a computer that runs on […]
