The Bloch Sphere is a fascinating geometric tool used in quantum mechanics to represent the state of a qubit—the basic unit of quantum information. While classical bits are either 0 or 1, qubits can exist in a superposition, blending these states in unique ways. The Bloch Sphere captures this duality by mapping every possible qubit state to a point on its surface. The north and south poles of the sphere correspond to the classical states of 0 and 1. Any other point on the surface represents a qu

Quantum computing could revolutionize information technology by harnessing the strange principles of quantum mechanics. While there is growing hype surrounding its potential, the reality is a mix of groundbreaking progress and persistent technical challenges.

Quantum field theory tells us that there are ever present fluctuations of energy in the fields that permeate space even in a seeming vacuum, which are called quantum vacuum fluctuations. When the quantum vacuum fluctuations are in a coherent phase they add constructively together and the collective energy of all modes in even a tiny volume of space is tremendously large. This vacuum energy expectation value comes from quantum mechanics, yet, something interesting happens when one considers the e
