Alice & Bob Sets Record Low for Quantum Resources Required to Break Internet Encryption

Alice & Bob, a leader in fault-tolerant quantum computing, sets a record low for the total quantum resources (qubits multiplied by runtime) required to run Shor’s algorithm on today’s encryption. Its cat-qubit architecture needs 40 times fewer physical qubits than Google Quantum AI’s Craig Gidney 2025 estimate to break RSA-2048 (arxiv).

Using Fluorescent Proteins That are Sensitive to Magnetic Fields as Quantum Biosensors

Magnetic fields influence several biological processes, possibly including humans’ circadian rhythms and how birds perceive magnetic fields. This influence occurs through spin quantum effects due to reactions that generate correlated pairs of free radicals (ions, molecules, or atoms with unpaired electrons).
