Quantum information science

Quantum information science is an area of study based on the idea that information science depends on quantum effects in physics.

In physics and computer science, quantum information is information that is held in the state of a quantum system.

AQUA@home was a distributed computing project operated by D-Wave Systems and running on the Berkeley Open Infrastructure for Network Computing (BOINC) software platform.

A density matrix is a matrix that describes a quantum system in a mixed state, a statistical ensemble of several quantum states.

Quantum cryptography is the science of exploiting quantum mechanicalproperties to perform cryptographic tasks.

Quantum Experiments at Space Scale (QUESS; Chinese: 量子科学实验卫星; pinyin: Liàngzǐ kēxué shíyàn wèixīng; literally: "Quantum Science Experiment Satellite"), is an international research project in the field of quantum physics.

The Georgia Tech Quantum Institute is a multi-disciplinary research center within the Georgia Tech Research Institute and the Georgia Institute of Technology that focuses on research within quantum computing and related fields.

The Institute for Quantum Computing, or IQC, located in Waterloo, Ontario, is an affiliate scientific research institute of the University of Waterloo with a multidisciplinary approach to the field of quantum information processing.

M-Labs (formerly known as the Milkymist project) is a company and community who develop, manufacture and sell advanced open hardware devices and solutions.

Quantum teleportation is a process by which quantum information (e.g. the exact state of an atom or photon) can be transmitted (exactly, in principle) from one location to another, with the help of classical communication and previously shared quantum entanglement between the sending and receiving location.

Physical Review A (also known as PRA) is a monthly peer-reviewed scientific journal published by the American Physical Society covering atomic, molecular, and optical physics and quantum information.

The Centre for Quantum Technologies (CQT) in Singapore is a Research Centre of Excellence hosted by the National University of Singapore.

In quantum mechanics, bra–ket notation is a standard notation for describing quantum states.
