Researchers show that wave-particle duality and quantum uncertainty are the same thing, reducing two mysteries to one.
IQC researcher wins COU Polanyi Prize for his work in Relativistic Quantum Information
Quantum technologies currently under development will eventually hit a limit, just as today’s computing devices are about to reach their classical limits. Eduardo Martin-Martinez is one of a handful of researchers already investigating what’s beyond non-relativistic quantum science and technologies.
The Institute for Quantum Computing (IQC) Advisory Board reconvened this week with a new chair and two new directors.
Mike Lazaridis takes on the chair role from founding chair, Tom Brzustowski. Lazaridis was instrumental in establishing IQC and has been a member of the IQC Advisory Board since its inception in 2005.
Institute for Quantum Computing (IQC) student Tomas Jochym-O’Connor (Department of Physics) earned a Vanier Canada Graduate Scholarship. The prestigious Vanier Canada Graduate Scholarship awards $50,000 per year over the next three years.
IQC hires former postdoctoral fellow Eduardo Martin-Martinez as a Research Assistant Professor.
Experts from around the world will gather in Ottawa this week to discuss cybersecurity in a quantum world.
New work asserts that a key technique used to probe quantum systems may not be so quantum after all, according to postdoctoral researcher Joshua Combes and his colleague Christopher Ferrie.
Over the past 20 years, a strange idea called a “weak value” has taken root in quantum information science.
Today the Institute for Quantum Computing signed a new agreement with the Korea Institute of Science and Technology (KIST) to expand research partnerships in the field of quantum information science.
