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...

Freezing light? Italian scientists froze fastest thing in universe, here’s how

In a rare occurrence, physics made it possible to control the fastest travelling element - light. Italian scientists have managed to freeze the light, as per reports. A recent study published in a British weekly journal reportedly revealed that light can exhibit ‘ supersolid behavior ’ a unique state of matter that flows without friction while retaining a solid-like structure. The research, led by Antonio Gianfate from CNR Nanotec and Davide Nigro from the University of Pavia, marks a significant step in understanding supersolidity in light. The scientists described their findings as “just the beginning” of this exploration, as per reports. In what can be termed as ‘manipulating photons under controlled quantum conditions ’, the scientists demonstrated that light, too, can exhibit this behaviour. (A photon is a bundle of electromagnetic energy which is massless, and travel at the speed of light) How did scientists freeze light? As we know, freezing involves lowering a liquid’s tempera...
