India, Oct. 21 -- NVIDIA announced a record-breaking quantum computing simulation on JUPITER, Europe's first exascale supercomputer, allowing researchers to fully explore and validate magic state cultivation - a leading approach to fault-tolerant quantum computing that requires 90% fewer qubits than previous methods.

Running on a system of NVIDIA GH200 superchips at Julich Supercomputing Centre, the 104-qubit simulation is the largest comprehensive simulation of a fault-tolerant quantum processor to date, modeling how a realistic quantum processor performs fault-tolerant computation at record scale.

That level of fidelity gives researchers the data and tools needed to predict the performance of future designs before they are built - red...
