Researchers at ETH Zurich have developed a method to generate what they describe as ...
The randomness in quantum physics is imperfect and needs amplification to be considered truly random, the researchers say.
Randomness is incredibly useful. People often draw straws, throw dice or flip coins to make fair choices. Random numbers can enable auditors to make completely unbiased selections. Randomness is also ...
A team including Scott Aaronson demonstrated what may be the first practical application of quantum computers to a real world problem. Using a 56-qubit quantum computer, researchers have for the first ...
