Quantum Computing at CERN: a Brief Guide through Hype and Reality
This post by Alberto Di Meglio was originally published on the CERN Computing Blog (accessible to everyone with a CERN computing account). The CERN Main Auditorium is packed, everybody is looking at the speaker waiting for a big announcement, the event starts. No, we are not talking about the Higgs Boson discovery announcement, but the

CERN openlab workshop kicks off discussion of quantum computing for high-energy physics
This article was originally published on the CERN openlab website. Over 400 people followed the workshop, which provided an overview of the current state of quantum-computing technologies. The event also served as a forum to kick-off discussion of which activities within the high-energy physics (HEP) community may be amenable to the application of quantum-computing technologies.On

Viewpoint: Quantum thinking required
Particle physicists need to start thinking about tomorrow’s computing technology today. This article was originally published in the CERN Courier. The High-Luminosity Large Hadron Collider (HL-LHC), due to operate in around 2026, will require a computing capacity 50–100 times greater than currently exists. The big uncertainty in this number is largely due to the difficulty
