IBM and Advance Present Three Demonstrations of Verifiable Quantum Advantage

Three new papers suggest ways to establish trust in quantum computer results even when classical simulation fails. One of the studies involved the Israeli company Kedma, but the papers have not yet been peer-reviewed and compared to computational

IBM quantum computer helped calculate how tritium binds to molten salt in fusion reactors

Researchers combined a Heron quantum processor with supercomputers to calculate the electronic structure of FLiBe clusters, a material being considered for tritium production in fusion reactors. The results show that the quantum calculation of parts of the problem was
