One notable example is the $34 million secured by British quantum algorithms specialist Phasecraft from a group of investors, ...

Quantum effects can play an important role in chemical reactions. Physicists have now observed a quantum mechanical tunneling reaction in experiments. The observation can also be described exactly in ...

STOCKHOLM (CBS Chicago/CBS Boston/AP) -- University of Chicago alum Moungi Bawendi was one of three scientists who won the 2023 Nobel Prize in Chemistry Wednesday for their work on minuscule particles ...

In this essay I consider whether the theory of organic chemistry is reducible to the theory of quantum chemistry. Using philosophical machinery developed by James Woodward, I characterize the ...

Quantum chemistry calculations offer the best combination of efficiency and accuracy for predicting molecular properties. But the complexity of density functional theory and other methods makes them ...

Quantum chemistry is very hard. The best quantum computing chemistry seems to be at the level of 12 qubits / 12 atoms. Supercomputer simulations can handle 20 qubits and 20 atoms simulation. There are ...
