Insider Brief
Researchers developed a generalized quantum computational spectroscopy method that uses quantum computers to study complex systems that are difficult to model with conventional machines.
The method uses an ancilla-assisted Hadamard test to examine static, time-changing and environmentally affected systems, including parity-time symmetry breaking and topological holonomy.
The approach could support research in physics, chemistry and materials science, with potential applications in molecular engineering, drug design and advanced materials.
PRESS RELEASE — Scientists could have a new way to explore the hidden behaviour of matter, thanks to research involving Queen Mary University of London that uses a quantum computer to carry out a new form of computational spectroscopy.
