Developed the most powerful quantum-engineering device

Physicists in the United States have announced the development of a simulator that will allow them to observe the behavior of subatomic particles that current computers can not.

Understanding quantum mechanics is a major challenge for scientists seeking to explain natural phenomena at the sub-atomic level where natural laws differ from what the world can do. Observed.

Speaking to AFP on the design of the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), project partner Joe Britton said: 'The potential computing power of our imaging equipment is greater than just what people can perceive. It is certainly the most powerful imaging device ever created. "

A NIST statement stressed that no other scientist could make a simulator capable of handling more than 30 quantum particles.

NIST's simulators have the ability to effectively control hundreds of qubits, more than 10 times more than previous devices.

It has passed a series of important standards tests and scientists are preparing to embark on research into issues in the field of materials science that can not be simulated on conventional computers.
