Vous voici dans le 66ième épisode de Quantum, le podcast francophone de l’actualité quantique. Nous reprenons le cours des événements depuis notre épisode spécial de mi-décembre sur Google Willow. Je suis toujours avec Fanny Bouton, ci-devant quantum lead chez OVHcloud.
Dans cet épisode, nous revenons sur divers événements comme la Q2B de Santa Clara, le quantique au CES de Las Vegas, le workshop de la Quantum Energy Initiative à Grenoble, la conférence QT4HEP du CERN et le European Quantum Software Workshop.
Côté acteurs, nous avons des news sur Alice&Bob, Quobly, Welinq, Qubit Pharmaceuticals, le CNRS, Xanadu, Google, QuEra, Quantum Brilliance, IBM, et puis quelques distractions du côté du bullshit quantique qui est vraiment mis à toutes les sauces de manière très créative en ce moment.

Here is Understanding Quantum technologies 2024, the 7th edition of this book and the fourth in English. It is always a free to download book, without any questions asked (no email, no profiling). It reaches 1,554 pages, split in five volumes for e-readers and a paperback edition is available since November 10th on many Amazon sites.
The book and these volumes are structured as follow:
Volume 1 “Prologue” (372 pages) starts with describing the motivation and organization of this book, then a quantum physics history highlighting the key contributors of this field, quantum physics 101 (quantization, superposition, entanglement and the likes). It then lays-out the basics to understand quantum computing with describing how gate-based quantum computing operates (qubits, gates, measurement), and then covers quantum computing engineering which includes quantum computer physical paradigms and architecture, error handling, quantum memory, quantum energetics, economics and how to deal with uncertainty.

In the latest 2023 edition of Understanding Quantum Computing 2023, I proposed a framework to analyze the quantum computing case studies that are flourishing nowadays.
It is located in the book just before 57 pages listing various case studies in 16 vertical markets (healthcare, energy, chemistry, transportation, logistics, retail, telecommunications, finance, insurance, …). These pages contain 239 scientific or review papers related to these various market case studies.
When you discover an analyst or IT vendor white paper or an academic review paper showcasing how quantum computing will transform your industry, it is usually written using the present tense, showcasing many practical case studies, sometimes with their scientific references.
