About
Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL) is a United States national laboratory founded in 1943 during the Manhattan Project. It is located in Los Alamos, New Mexico, and operated by Triad National Security LLC for the Department of Energy and the National Nuclear Security Administration. LANL conducts quantum computing research across quantum algorithms, quantum simulation, quantum cryptography, quantum networking, and quantum sensors for national security applications. Its work develops quantum technologies for nuclear weapons stewardship, materials science, secure communications, and sensing. The laboratory operates quantum computing testbeds exploring superconducting qubits, trapped ions, and quantum annealing for optimization and simulation problems. LANL collaborates with the DOE National Quantum Information Science Research Centers and industry partners. It serves the Department of Defense, the Department of Energy, and the intelligence community, supporting weapons physics, cryptanalysis, materials discovery, and quantum-safe cryptography that protects national security information against quantum threats.
