Chicago hopes to become a world center for quantum research
From The Economist: Q-NEXT Director David Awschalom weights in on how Chicago is moving to the forefront of the quantum industry. Chicago’s strength in quantum research in part goes back to its days at the center of research into the nuclear industry. Argonne National Laboratory opened in 1946 as a hub for research into nuclear power. Today, Illinois generates more electricity from nuclear power than any other state. And it was the visionary thinking by Robert Zimmer, a former president of the University of Chicago, that was responsible the city’s more recent quantum leap. Read More
