Trinity and IBM: when quantum simulation becomes reality
Scientists have discovered what lies behind superdiffusion
Quantum physicists from Trinity in collaboration with IBM (International Business Machines Corporation) is an American international company, one of the largest providers of information technology and services in the world. It was founded in 1911 and is headquartered in Armonk, New York.
IBM is a diversified company offering a wide range of information technology products and services. It specializes in the development and production of computer hardware, software, cloud technologies, artificial intelligence, data analytics, cybersecurity and other IT solutions.
IBM is also involved in research and development in various fields such as quantum computing, blockchain, robotics and cognitive systems. The company is known for its innovation and active participation in the development of advanced technologies.
” data-html=”true” data-original-title=”IBM”>IBM Dublin have successfully simulated superdiffusion on a quantum computer. This discovery was the first step in carrying out complex calculations of quantum transport on quantum equipment. Over time, such studies will provide new understanding in Condensed Matter and Materials Sciences.
The study was published in a leading journal Nature NPJ Quantum Information and is one of the first outcomes of the TCD-IBM Predoctoral Fellowship Program. The quantum computer used in this research contains 27 superconducting qubits and is located at IBM’s laboratory in New York.
Trinity professor John Gold, who led the study, emphasized the significance of the work, explaining that simulating complex quantum systems on classical computers is an impossible task. He noted that a system of 300 qubits would require more coefficients than there are atoms in the observable universe.
The main achievement of the work is the simulation of the long-term behavior of a system of small connected magnets, which mimic more complex materials and are used to understand magnetism. The scientists described a regime in which overdiffusion occurs due to a governing process called the Kardar-Parisi-Zhang equation.
Nathan Keenan, a scientist at IBM-Trinity, spoke about the difficulties of programming quantum computers, noting that the main problem is noise and interference.
IBM UK and Ireland Research Director, Juan Bernabe-Moreno, emphasized the long-term partnership with Trinity and satisfaction with the results achieved.
Trinity continues to remain at the forefront of the era of quantum simulation, actively collaborating with companies such as IBM, Microsoft and others.
