QuEra Computing, maker of the world’s first and only publicly accessible neutral-atom quantum computer – Aquila, today announced a new partnership with the National Energy Research Scientific Computing Center (NERSC). The partnership will give NERSC access to QuEra’s neutral-atom technology, advancing the center’s efforts to help develop and evaluate quantum computers with the goal of allowing its users to solve problems in quantum dynamics, chemistry, high-energy physics, and other fields.
“It is a privilege to provide NERSC with access to QuEra’s quantum computing resources and to contribute to its ongoing efforts to increase its users’ computing capability. We believe the vast pool of scientists who turn to NERSC for computing resources stand to benefit greatly from our technology. It is our hope that through this partnership, we can help accelerate scientific breakthroughs in an array of disciplines,” said Alexander Keesling, CEO at QuEra Computing.
