Quantum Shorts Contest

The Harvard Quantum Initiative Blog is running a contest for students who are interested in quantum science! See below for more information and potentially win a trip to tour Harvard’s research facilities. HQI Blog: HQI Blog is a website run by graduate students in the Harvard Quantum Initiative (HQI). We are passionate about sharing our interest and knowledge in quantum science to the broader public … Continue reading Quantum Shorts Contest

Performing a 51 qubit computation

Qubits, the quantum analog of a digital bit, are envisioned as the building blocks of the future of computation. The quantum bit is special because of its ability to be in simultaneous values of 0 and 1, while digital bits can only be a 0 or a 1, not both. The calculations of quantum problem become exponentially more difficult as larger qubit computations are required: … Continue reading Performing a 51 qubit computation
