Oxford's Hybrid Quantum Computer Observes Foundational Effect in New Setting
Physicists at Oxford have developed a novel hybrid quantum computer that successfully simulated the foundational Aharonov-Bohm effect. This achievement demonstrates a powerful new tool for modeling complex quantum interactions beyond classical computing limits.
Oxford Scientists Stop Quantum Particle With a Field It Never Touched
Physicists at Oxford University have demonstrated the Aharonov-Bohm effect by using a magnetic field it never physically entered to stop a quantum particle from tunneling. This breakthrough, achieved with a hybrid quantum computer, showcases the power of quantum simulation for understanding fundamental physics.
Oxford physicists create new quantum states for computing
Researchers at the University of Oxford have engineered a new class of 'Schrödinger-cat' quantum states that can be precisely programmed in 2026, a crucial step toward building computers that defy cla
