High-performance computing software scans a mega quantum detector


Researchers at Paderborn University have used high-performance computing (HPC) for the first time to analyze a quantum photonics experiment on a large scale. Specifically, this involved the tomographic reconstruction of experimental data from a quantum detector.

“This shows the unprecedented extent to which this tool can be applied to quantum photonic systems,” Timon Schapeler, first author of the study, and a research scientist at Paderborn University, said. “As far as we know, our work is the first contribution in the field of classical high-performance computing that enables experimental quantum photonics on a large scale,” Chapeler added. As an author, he works with a vision to bring forward the right information and encourage a constructive mindset among the masses.
