3 Quantum Stocks to Buy If You Already Have IonQ Marc Guberti, The Motley Fool Fri, September 11, 2026 at 1:20 AM EDT 4 min read IONQ -3.41% NVDA -2.37% Most IonQ (NYSE: IONQ) investors are bullish on the quantum theme and have no regard for standard valuation metrics like the P/E ratio. The leading quantum company reported a $1.87 billion loss in the second quarter but saw its revenue jump 287% year over year to $80.1 million. Investors are more focused on what IonQ will look like over the next 10 years than on how it will look in the next quarter. However, putting all your eggs in one basket may not be a prudent approach for a potential megatrend like quantum computing. Missed Nvidia in 2009? This Rare Signal Is Flashing Again. In 2009, a "Double Down" signal flashed for a little-known chipmaker called Nvidia. For the first time in years, that same "Total Conviction" signal is flashing for a company 1/100th the size of Nvidia.

Rigetti Computing Rigetti Computing (NASDAQ: RGTI) aims to build full-stack quantum computers that can solve the world's most advanced problems, and the U.S. government has come to support them. The company received $100 million in CHIPS Act funding, and the government now has an equity stake in the company. The government has been investing in more companies to provide capital. It also financially incentivizes the government to support Rigetti Computing even as losses pile up in financial results. According to Rigetti Computing's August 2026 investor presentation, the quantum industry can generate up to $850 billion in economic value by 2040, suggesting substantial potential for early entrants. Although the company only earned $5.1 million in Q2 and had a $28.

IBM and Lockheed Martin Partner with ETH Zurich to Deploy Switzerland’s First IBM Quantum System Two

IBM and Lockheed Martin Partner with ETH Zurich to Deploy Switzerland’s First IBM Quantum System Two IBM (NYSE: IBM) and defense technology giant Lockheed Martin (NYSE: LMT) have executed an offset agreement with armasuisse—Switzerland’s Federal Office for Defence Procurement—to establish a national hub for quantum innovation anchored at ETH Zurich . The agreement, tied to Swiss defense procurement obligations, will deliver the country’s first on-premises IBM Quantum System Two, scheduled for installation by late 2026 at the Swiss National Supercomputing Centre (CSCS) in Lugano . Operated on-site by IBM under an initial three-year operational agreement through 2029, the CSCS installation will be powered by the IBM Quantum Nighthawk r2 processor . Featuring 120 programmable qubits and high-speed qubit reset architecture, Nighthawk r2 executes over 100,000 circuits per second—delivering up to 25× the circuit throughput of previous IBM Heron generation QPUs. Co-located alongside CSCS’s Alps AI-enabled supercomputer, the facility establishes a quantum-centric supercomputing environment for high-performance hybrid classical-quantum workflows .

Switzerland to host its first IBM Quantum System Two

Lockheed Martin and IBM are jointly launching a quantum innovation hub at ETH Zurich, an initiative that will soon be anchored by Switzerland’s first IBM Quantum System Two. The advanced system, to be installed at the Swiss National Supercomputing Centre in Lugano, will give Swiss academia, research, and industry on-site access to one of IBM’s most advanced quantum computers, expected to be operational by the end of 2026. This collaboration aims to expand quantum computing access across Swiss institutions and fuel the country’s growing quantum ecosystem, with IBM operating the computer and conducting joint research alongside partners like ETH Zurich and Lockheed Martin, who will explore the improvement of additive manufacturing of metallic alloys. Lockheed Martin & IBM Launch Swiss Quantum Innovation Hub This installation marks the first deployment of IBM’s flagship quantum system within the country, providing a dedicated resource for academic, industrial, and research applications. CSCS will provide the necessary technical infrastructure, including power, cooling, and security, to support the advanced system’s operation for an initial three-year period extending through 2029. The hub’s structure designates ETH Zurich as the coordinating body for access, offering expertise and technologies to Swiss industries, startups, and academic institutions. IBM reports that the Quantum System Two has already demonstrated accurate computations on quantum circuits containing 7,500 gates, a key achievement on its quantum roadmap. This capability builds upon the concept of quantum-centric supercomputing, integrating quantum processors with classical high-performance computing resources. The company highlights that access to this technology enabled recent demonstrations of quantum advantage through trusted computation, suggesting potential benefits for complex problem-solving.

Differential and Common Decoherence Modes in Witnessing the Quantum Gravity-Induced Entanglement of Matter

--> Quantum Physics arXiv:2609.10697 (quant-ph) [Submitted on 9 Sep 2026] Title:Differential and Common Decoherence Modes in Witnessing the Quantum Gravity-Induced Entanglement of Matter Authors:Ryan Rizaldy, Helen M Sheehy, Tian Zhou, Anupam Mazumdar View a PDF of the paper titled Differential and Common Decoherence Modes in Witnessing the Quantum Gravity-Induced Entanglement of Matter, by Ryan Rizaldy and 2 other authors View PDF HTML (experimental) Abstract:In the context of the QGEM (Quantum Gravity-induced Entanglement of Masses) experiment, we consider two adjacent matter-wave interferometers in linear and parallel configurations that interact solely via gravity. If gravity were quantum, then the two matter-wave interferometers would become entangled via the virtual excitation of the massless graviton. In this paper, we consider witnessing this entanglement by considering a generic experimental scenario where the two interferometers are subject to different global phases and different decoherence rates. In this context, we show that the individual global phases do not affect the witness, discuss common and differential decoherence modes, and perform the parameter search optimal for different masses. We provide a mathematical framework for these asymmetric decoherence rates and then search for parameters that determine the entanglement witness. We have kept the inter-separation distance between the two closest superpositions of the interferometers' masses fixed while varying the experimental time from $\tau=0.1$ s to $\tau=1$ s. Finishing the experiment at $ \tau=0.1$ s has many advantages from the point of view of protecting the experiment from random acceleration noise. However, witnessing the entanglement also suffers from $\langle W\rangle \sim -{\cal O}(10^{-2})$ for $m=10^{-14}$~kg, for decoherence rate in the ranges of ${\cal O}(10^{-1}-1)$~Hz for $\tau=0.1$ s experiment. However, as we show, increasing the mass of the matter-wave interferometer may impr

Demonstration of a logical Bell-state measurement beyond the linear-optical limit

--> Quantum Physics arXiv:2609.10698 (quant-ph) [Submitted on 9 Sep 2026] Title:Demonstration of a logical Bell-state measurement beyond the linear-optical limit Authors:Shreya Kumar, Simon D. Reiß, Peter van Loock, Stefanie Barz View a PDF of the paper titled Demonstration of a logical Bell-state measurement beyond the linear-optical limit, by Shreya Kumar and 3 other authors View PDF HTML (experimental) Abstract:Fault tolerance is essential for scalable quantum technologies and is enabled by quantum error-correction codes. Bell-state measurements (BSMs) are a fundamental building block for modern quantum technologies such as measurement-based quantum computation and fusion-based quantum computation, as well as quantum networks. Therefore, performing BSMs on error-corrected qubits is a necessary step for achieving fault tolerance in these applications. In this work, we realise a logical BSM using linear optics, based on a two-qubit repetition code, an instance of a quantum parity code that allows detection of bit-flip errors, and experimentally achieve a mean success probability of (70.8 +/- 0.4)%. While standard linear-optical BSMs are fundamentally limited to a maximum success probability of 50%, this increased success probability enables higher secure key rates in quantum communication and facilitates the generation of large graph states for quantum computation. Since fault-tolerant schemes require error-correction codes regardless, this improvement comes at no additional resource overhead. Our results demonstrate that error-correction codes can be used to surpass the linear-optics limit of BSMs, which is an important step towards practical, fault-tolerant, and scalable photonic quantum technologies.
