Quantum cryptography

Scientists will work to channel the huge emerging power of quantum computers for the common good at a new institute that opened in Geneva on Tuesday, its founders said.

The Open Quantum Institute is calling on researchers from around the world to pinpoint the most promising future applications for the fast-emerging technology — and ensure they are open and accessible to all.

Ljubljana – A group of researchers led by Dragan Mihailović from the Jožef Stefan Institute (IJS) has made a breakthrough in the research of quantum technologies that could lead to miniaturisation of microchips and use of new materials in computers.

At a time when we are becoming increasingly aware of the crucial importance of science for the protection of human health and for the global development, we would like to remind you of some of the meetings radio Bulgaria has had during the year with young Bulgarian scholars who a significant contribution to science.

Google has developed an unprecedented quantum computer that is capable of performing calculations far beyond the capabilities of current supercomputers. This was written by The Financial Times, citing a scientific report from the corporation.

While the theoretical possibility of multidimensional quantum teleportation has been known to scientists for nearly three decades, a research team has developed a new experimental method and the necessary technology to finally achieve it.

Google believes it is on the verge of "quantum superiority" with a new 72-cubic quantum processor it develops, reports The Registry online. The term "quantum superiority" means the moment when a quantum computer will perform better than a traditional computer without getting any data processing errors.

The Chinese quantum satellite was orbited two years ago. Since then, a number of experiments have been carried out with it, and in the summer of last year the satellite has been able to transmit information to three ground stations a thousand kilometers apart.

Researchers from Australia say they have designed a new type of qubit - or quantum bit, a piece of information - which they think is close to creating a real, full-size quantum computer, ScienceAlert reported.

IBM has made it possible for the public to access a functioning quantum processor over the Internet, as BBC reports.
