A new theory suggests that the unification between quantum physics and general relativity has eluded scientists for 100 years because huge “fluctuations” in space and time mean that gravity won’t play by quantum rules. Since the early 20th century, two revolutionary theories have defined our fundamental understanding of the physics that governs the universe. Quantum …
Over a century ago, two theories were put forward to explain all of reality: quantum mechanics and general relativity. Both have been refined and improved over decades and extensively tested. They are solid theories. But ultimately, alone, they can’t explain everything – and together they don’t seem to work. For decades, physicists have been looking …

Today, I’m talking with Jerry Chow. He’s the director of quantum systems at IBM, meaning he’s trying to build the future one qubit at a time. IBM made some announcements this week about its plans for the next 10 years of quantum computing: there are new chips, new computers, and new APIs. You’ll hear us …
One of IBM’s latest quantum processor has improved the reliability of its qubits.Credit: Ryan Lavine for IBM IBM has unveiled the first quantum computer with more than 1,000 qubits — the equivalent of the digital bits in an ordinary computer. But the company says it will now shift gears and focus on making its machines …

Quantum computing is starting to fulfil its promise as a crucial scientific research tool, IBM researchers claim, as the US tech group attempts to quell fears that the technology will fail to match high hopes …
Quantum technology manipulates the quirks of quantum physics to perform a huge number of processes simultaneously so that it can tackle tasks a conventional computer could not. Mr Griffith extolled the possibilities of quantum in an exclusive interview with The Sunday Telegraph at the National Physics Laboratory, his first since starting his new role after …
