ISTA physicists have confirmed a theory proposed 20 years ago that could advance quantum technology. A future quantum computer may need separate modules to behave as one machine, even when they are physically apart. That requires distributed entanglement, a quantum connection between distant components that has typically depended on active control and repeated measurements. Physicists [...]

Towards the end of the first lecture for the Qiskit Global Summer School 2025, Foundations of Quantum Mechanics, Olivia Lanes (Global Lead, Content and Education IBM) stated: Before we end, let’s now briefly talk about the birth of quantum information science, a pivotal shift that began in the 1990s. This is the era when researchers...
