Riverlane

🌟 Exciting News! 🌟 We're thrilled to be semi-finalists in the #XPRIZEQuantumApplications! 🎉 A huge congratulations to our dedicated team at Riverlane, whose innovative proposal focuses on how quantum computers can improve molecular and materials simulations.  🤔 Why does this matter?  Simulating molecules and materials is highly complex using classical methods. We often reach a computational limit where it takes too long to uncover meaningful results, leaving scientists to resort to long, real-world test-and-development lifecycles.  This is where quantum computers can help. Quantum computers can efficiently perform simulations at the atomic scale, making them perfectly placed to simulate molecules and materials in new ways.   ⚛️ What has the team done? Our work focuses on improving how we understand electron interactions using a quantum method in the so-called ‘first quantisation’ framework. This allows us to study larger, realistic systems more accurately on future quantum computers.  These are important for applications such as methane capture and achieving net-zero aviation, which are difficult to simulate on traditional computers. At Riverlane, we're committed to developing the tools and technologies that will empower the quantum community to reach utility-scale. This research accelerates our understanding of early fault tolerance, informing how we design our technology and build future quantum architectures. 🌐 XPRIZE Quantum Applications is a 3-year, $5M global competition designed to generate quantum computing algorithms that can be put into practice to help solve real-world challenges. We're excited to be part of this journey and contribute to a future where quantum computing can make a substantial impact. 🚀🔬 XPRIZE | #QuantumApplications | #QuantumComputing | GESDA - Geneva Science and Diplomacy Anticipator | Google

🌐 Riverlane makes its QECi Specification open to the quantum community! Quantum error correction is the key to unlocking useful, scalable quantum computing. To achieve this, quantum computers must tightly integrate their control systems with the quantum error correction (QEC) stack, coordinating exactly which data is exchanged, when, and in what format. That’s why Riverlane created QECi (Quantum Error Correction Interface) - an open standard that defines the data format and runtime states to be exchanged between a control system and a QEC system during computation, ensuring they can work together seamlessly. 💡 Why QECi matters: ✅ Independent upgrades – Upgrade your control system or QEC stack without compatibility issues.  ✅ Interoperability – Choose the best solution for your hardware without vendor lock-in.  ✅ Scalability – Handle the data transfer demands of the next big milestone, the MegaQuOp machine, capable of one million error-free quantum operations. Already adopted by Infleqtion, Qblox, Rigetti Computing and Zurich Instruments, QECi helps establish the foundational standards needed for scalable, hybrid classical-quantum computing. 📣 Hear from Zurich Instruments on why QECi matters to them 👇 📥 Download the QECi Specification here: www.riverlane.com/qeci #QuantumComputing | #QEC | #HPC | #ControlSystems
