Quantum Simulation
In 1981, physicist Richard Feynman pointed out a fundamental mismatch in computer science.

Quantum Speedup
Quantum computing is not a faster version of classical computing.

Quantum Sensing
The same fragility that makes quantum computing so difficult to build makes quantum systems extraordinarily useful as sensors.

Surface Codes
The surface code is the most widely studied quantum error correction scheme, and for good reason: it has a high error threshold (approximately 1% for standard noise models), meaning it can tolerate relatively noisy physical qubits compared to other codes.
