IHEP seeks quantum opportunities to fast-track fundamental science

 



China’s Institute of High Energy Physics (IHEP) in Beijing is pioneering innovative approaches in quantum computing and quantum machine learning to open up new research pathways within its particle physics programme, as Hideki Okawa, Weidong Li and Jun Cao explain


The Institute of High Energy Physics (IHEP), part of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, is the largest basic science laboratory in China. It hosts a multidisciplinary research programme spanning elementary particle physics, astrophysics as well as the planning, design and construction of large-scale accelerator projects – including the China Spallation Neutron Source, which launched in 2018, and the High Energy Photon Source, due to come online in 2025. While investment in IHEP’s experimental infrastructure has ramped dramatically over the past 20 years, the development and application of quantum machine-learning and quantum-computing technologies is now poised to yield similarly far-reaching outcomes within the IHEP research programme. Big science, quantum solutions High-energy physics is where “big science” meets “big data”. Discovering new particles and probing the fundamental laws of nature are endeavours that produce incredible volumes of data. The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN generates petabytes (1015 bytes) of data during its experimental runs – all of which must be processed and analysed with the help of grid computing, a distributed infrastructure that networks computing resources worldwide.



Back to quantum basics Quantum computers, as the name implies, exploit the fundamental principles of quantum mechanics. Similar to classical computers, which rely on the binary bits that take the value of either 0 or 1, quantum computers exploit quantum binary bits, but as a superposition of 0 and 1 states. This superposition, coupled with quantum entanglement (correlations among quantum bits), in principle enables quantum computers to perform some types of calculation significantly faster than classical machines – for example, quantum simulations applied in various areas of quantum chemistry and molecular reaction kinetics. While the opportunities for science and the wider economy appear compelling, one of the big engineering headaches associated with early-stage quantum computers is their vulnerability to environmental noise. Qubits are all-too-easily disturbed, for example, by their interactions with Earth’s magnetic field or stray electromagnetic fields from mobile phones and WiFi networks. Interactions with cosmic rays can also be problematic, as can interference between neighbouring qubits.

Physicists observe a new form of magnetism for the first time

MIT physicists have demonstrated a new form of magnetism that could one day be harnessed to build faster, denser, and less power-hungry " spintronic " memory chips. The new magnetic state is a mash-up of two main forms of magnetism: the ferromagnetism of everyday fridge magnets and compass needles, and antiferromagnetism, in which materials have magnetic properties at the microscale yet are not macroscopically magnetized. Now, the MIT team has demonstrated a new form of magnetism , termed "p-wave magnetism." Physicists have long observed that electrons of atoms in regular ferromagnets share the same orientation of "spin," like so many tiny compasses pointing in the same direction. This spin alignment generates a magnetic field, which gives a ferromagnet its inherent magnetism. Electrons belonging to magnetic atoms in an antiferromagnet also have spin, although these spins alternate, with electrons orbiting neighboring atoms aligning their spins antiparalle...

Physicists Catch Light in 'Imaginary Time' in Scientific First

For the first time, researchers have seen how light behaves during a mysterious phenomenon called 'imaginary time '. When you shine light through almost any transparent material, the gridlock of electromagnetic fields that make up the atomic alleys and side streets will add a significant amount of time to each photon's commute. This delay can tell physicists a lot about how light scatters, revealing details about the matrix of material the photons must navigate. Yet until now, one trick up the theorist's sleeve for measuring light's journey invoking imaginary time has not been fully understood in practical terms. An experiment conducted by University of Maryland physicists Isabella Giovannelli and Steven Anlage has now revealed precisely what pulses of microwave radiation (a type of light that exists outside the visible spectrum) do while experiencing imaginary time inside a roundabout of cables. Their work also demonstrates how imaginary numbers can describe a ver...
