Why it matters: Researchers at Oxford University published a paper in Nature last week describing how they used quantum teleportation to transfer data between two quantum computers placed about two ...

Just a few years ago, many researchers in quantum computing thought it would take several decades to develop machines that could solve complex tasks, such as predicting how chemicals react or cracking ...

Quantum computers have the potential to solve big scientific problems that are beyond the reach of today’s most powerful supercomputers, such as discovering new antibiotics or developing new materials ...
