Subject: Quantum QID Newsletter Invitation
Hello!
I am starting a newsletter for those who, like me, may be interested in the new
quantum technologies. The first issue is below.
This is a one-time-only message. If you'd like to keep receiving the
newsletter, please let me know and I'll add you to the new list. Otherwise,
thank you for your time.
Best wishes.

Quantum Investment and Development
_,.~*^`�*~.,_,.~*^`�*~.,_,.~*^`�*~.,_,.~*^`�*~.,_,.~*^`�*~.,_
Purpose:
To promote the new quantum technologies, including computing, cryptography,
sensors, storage, and teleportation.

What�s Going On:
Quantum Simulations With Continuous Variables: Furthering efforts to answer
hard-to-test questions about the quantum world, a NIST ion-trap computer can
now simulate how the unique rules of quantum mechanics can affect a microscopic
particle's "continuous variables," quantities such as position and momentum
which can have a smooth continuum of values�

Energy Requirements May Stall Quantum Computers: The energy required to create
an accurate quantum computer may limit the ability of scientists to make such
devices small, fast, inexpensive and efficient, according to a University of
Arkansas researcher�

Structures: � At these small dimensions the memory cells demonstrate true
quantum mechanical behavior, providing erase speeds several orders of magnitude
faster than conventional Flash memory cells, while exhibiting excellent data
retention�

Web Sites to Visit:
The Centre for Quantum Computation, part of the Universities of Oxford and
Cambridge, conducts theoretical and experimental research into all aspects of
quantum information processing, and into the implications of the quantum theory
of computation for physics itself.
