Quantum computers, which perform calculations using superposition in quantum mechanics, are expected to be able to perform calculations at a level that cannot be achieved by conventional classical ...

A new academic paper reveals a worrisome tendency for cosmic rays to disrupt quantum computer processors in a way that may be nearly impossible for current error ...

Recently, when researchers were testing error correction on Google’s quantum processor, they noted an odd phenomenon where the whole error-correction scheme would ...

High-energy cosmic rays errors possibly created a soft error, known as a "bit flip," in the onboard avionics of the Airbus ...

Back when I worked I quantum computing as a grad student and postdoc, I was always frustrated that people never seemed to question whether we ought to assume ...
