Google’s Sycamore quantum chip breaks classical computers performing random circuit sampling
Phase transition in linear cross-entropy. Credit: Nature (2024). DOI: 10.1038/s41586-024-07998-6 A team of engineers, physicists, and quantum experts at Google Research found that by reducing noise to a certain level, the company’s Sycamore quantum chip can outperform classical computers that perform random circuit sampling (RCS). discovered. In their study published in the journal Nature, the group fine-tuned the processor’s operating…

Hurricane Helen drone flight breaks data collection and flight time records
S0 Drone Sensors, Components, and Hardware. Credit: Black Swift Technologies As Hurricane Helen formed in the Gulf of Mexico, NOAA researchers collected critical data from the sea and air to better understand tropical cyclones and support forecasters at the National Hurricane Center. This real-time data gives meteorologists a clearer picture of the storm environment and structure, reducing forecast uncertainty. Researchers…
