The main event this week has been the release of the CNSA Suite 2.0. Basically the guidelines and roadmap from the NSA and NIST for post-quantum cryptography. The whole release can be read here and will affect any federal agency or contractor in the US in the short term. In the meantime, the person who “caused” this, Peter Shor has released a paper recounting the early days of Quantum Computing and how we got where we are now. Another paper discusses error correction in Rydberg atoms, while AWS keeps working on the same direction. QEC is one of the most relevant challenges today in Q. computing. If you want a very clear idea of how are the insides of a quantum computer and how it is build, a great article below gives as a tour to the guts of one (superconducting). And IBM showcases their latest great fridge (ok. dillution refrigerator). (Why we call it a fridge if it is more like a freezer?)
