IBM’s 156-qubit processor joins GPUs to calculate electrostatic energy in an enzyme
SMRTR summary
QC Ware combined IBM's 156-qubit quantum processor with GPU-based computing to calculate the electrostatic energy of a complex enzyme called nitric oxide reductase. Rather than replacing conventional computing, the quantum processor handled specific measurements while GPUs managed the rest. The demonstration shows how quantum hardware can fit into existing chemistry workflows, with potential uses in drug discovery, catalysis, and materials science.
