Institute For Robust Quantum Simulation Rqs

The National Science Foundation (NSF) Quantum Leap Challenge Institute for Robust Quantum Simulation (RQS) is developing quantum simulation devices to understand and exploit the unique behavior of complex quantum systems while speeding up the introduction of general-use quantum computers. RQS researchers are pioneering new ways to build, use, and validate quantum simulations for chemistry, nuclear and high energy physics, materials science, optimization, quantum heat engines, and computer science. Supported by a $25 million NSF award, RQS brings together researchers from the University of Maryland, Duke University, North Carolina State University, Princeton University, Yale University and the National Institute of Standards and Technology.
