All realistic quantum systems interact with their environments and thereby must be considered as open quantum systems. When a quantum system is strongly coupled to its environment, the so-called ...

The Lieb-Schultz-Mattis (LSM) theorem is an important result in condensed matter physics. The LSM theorem states that a spin chain with half-integer spin and translation and rotation symmetry can not ...

A research team has, for the first time in the world, elucidated the microscopic mechanism by which quantum order is lost and collapses in "open quantum environments" existing in nature. Since ...

Scientists at the Institute for Photonic Quantum Systems (PhoQS) and the Paderborn Center for Parallel Computing (PC2) at Paderborn University have developed a powerful open-source software tool that ...

Quantum systems tend to become less “quantum-y” as they interact with their environment. So when developing a mathematical description, it’s usually simpler just to view them as being closed off from ...

Attempts to understand quantum phase transitions in open systems usually rely on real‑time Lindbladian evolution, which tracks how a quantum state changes as it relaxes toward a steady state. This ...

IQM believes this recognition comes as institutions worldwide move quantum computing out of shared cloud access and into ...

For over a century, scientists have thought of time as a fundamental property of the universe. But the more researchers seek ...

Integrating quantum computers into U.S. world-class supercomputers is now a strategic imperative for U.S. technological leadership in the next era of computing. Hybrid systems will synergize classical ...
