JUPITER supercomputer breaks world record with 50-qubit quantum simulation

ScienceDailyMay 11, 20264 min read

Scientists in Germany have pulled off a staggering computing feat by fully simulating a 50-qubit quantum computer for the first time ever using Europe’s new exascale supercomputer, JUPITER. The breakthrough shatters the previous 48-qubit record and highlights just how powerful next-generation supercomputers have become.

Researchers at the Jülich Supercomputing Centre and NVIDIA have achieved a major milestone in quantum computing by fully simulating a universal quantum computer with 50 qubits for the first time. The accomplishment was made possible using JUPITER, Europe's first exascale supercomputer, which was officially launched at Forschungszentrum Jülich last September. The achievement surpasses the previous record of 48 qubits, which was also set by Jülich scientists in…
