Quantum computers are good at simulating physical and chemical processes, but not well
The work uses a 27-qubit quantum computer Q System One, which was developed by IBM together with the University of Tokyo, as well as other Japanese scientific organizations.
One of the participants in the project , QunaSys, has experience in the field of quantum computing, as well as in conducting simulations to find a material with certain properties.
In this search, they use the density functional theory, in which a solid body is viewed as a system of a large number of electrons interacting in the same way, held together by a lattice of atomic nuclei.In other words, it is the electron density distribution that is described in the quantum Schrödinger equations.
A quantum computer works well with such formulas, unlikesupercomputers, the authors of the work note.
