For quantum computers to change the game of computation, scientists need to show that the machines’ calculations are correct. Now, there’s hope. Google’s Willow quantum chip has achieved verifiable ...

The quest to find the longest-running simple computer program has identified a new champion. It’s physically impossible to write out the numbers involved using standard mathematical notation.

The simulation of strongly interacting many-body systems is a key objective of quantum physics research, as it can help to test the predictions of physics theories and yield new valuable insight.
