Researchers from the Fermilab-led SQMS Center identified material and fabrication features associated with variations in superconducting qubit performance. It is one of the most comprehensive studies ever conducted, linking materials and their structures to variations in quantum device performance.

Two new awards will expand Fermilab’s critical role in the Genesis Mission by developing custom microelectronics and advancing quantum information science.

Fermilab is joining Microsoft Quantum as an initial partner in a new quantum hardware makerspace at Microsoft’s quantum research center in the University of Maryland’s Discovery District. As part of its broader collaboration with Microsoft, the QICK kit will have expanded tools to broaden access to quantum-control technologies across hardware platforms.

A profile on Brendan Casey, a senior scientist at Fermilab and member of the Muon g-2 collaboration, by his alma mater University of Mary Washington.

Researchers from all over the world gathered recently at Unicamp for the Dune Collaboration Meeting to to discuss progress of the Dune Project led by Fermilab.

Crews at the Sanford Underground Research Facility have moved about 39% of the I-beam steel needed to construct the cryotat for the Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment. That represents nearly 2 million pounds of steel that completely fills the south cavern that is 500 feet long, 65 feet wide, and about 7 stories tall.

Bosonic quantum error-correction devices at Fermilab’s SQMS Center use multiple quantum states within harmonic oscillators, a departure from traditional two-level qubit systems and a potential pathway to increased fault tolerance.

The Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment led by Fermilab is included in the line up of most ambitious international science projects that demonstrates how modern science transcends borders and inspires new technologies.

NVIDIA announced an expansion of the NVIDIA CUDA-Q open source platform with CUDA-Q Logical, a verifiable approach to developing useful applications for fault-tolerant quantum computers. Fermilab researchers used the platform accelerating fault-tolerant algorithm development from five months to three weeks, a 7x speedup.

Rice University’s DUNE-TECH program introduces undergraduates to the science behind DUNE, one of the nation’s most ambitious physics experiments.
