Abstract

RAND, in partnership with Japan's Consulate General in Los Angeles and the JAPAN HOUSE Los Angeles, hosted a conference to enable scholars in the United States and Japan to share expertise in the realms of applied quantum technology. Specific questions addressed included: How might quantum science technologies change our everyday lives? Which applications are American and Japanese researchers focusing on? And are there potential areas of cooperation?

Quantum technology is relatively new but could eventually affect many aspects of life. These conference proceedings summarize U.S. and Japanese speakers' remarks from a hybrid conference in January 2024 that explored practical applications and issues regarding quantum technology for the United States and Japan, including commentary from the keynote speaker.

Where There Is Will, There Is a Way. Researchers, Be Long-term Optimists

Shiro Saito

Quantum information technology is attracting attention as a source of technological innovation that will bring about major changes in the future economy and society.Countries around the world, including Japan, the United States, Europe, and China, are positioning research and development of quantum information technology as one of their national strategies.We interviewed Shiro Saito, a senior distinguished researcher at NTT Basic Research Laboratories and who is making a significant contribution to the development of quantum information technology, about the progress of his research and his attitude as a researcher.

This report presents an assessment of the quantum technology industrial bases of several U.S.-allied nations that are major players in the development of quantum technology, beginning with a global look and then focusing on the quantum industrial bases of Australia, the UK, Germany, and Japan. It gives recommendations for how the United States can promote strong ties with its allies in quantum technology research and development.

Quantum Physics and Nuclear Engineering

related areas, ordered algebraic, category-theoretic structures +1 more

The conference brings together researchers working on mathematical foundations of quantum physics, quantum computing, and related areas, with a focus on structural perspectives and the use of logical tools, ordered algebraic and category-theoretic structures, formal languages, semantically methods, and other computer science techniques applied to the study of physical behaviour in general. Work that applies structures and methods inspired by quantum theory to other fields (including computer science) is also welcome. With members from around the world focused on Quantum physics and Nuclear Engineering this is your best opportunity to reach the largest assemblage of participants from the universities, colleges, research centres, societies, institutions, labs, associations, communities and companies etc. We want to make a worldwide meet in which data between researchers from the different controls can be effectively traded. The explanation behind bringing the general population at the meetings together is to catalyse empowering trades and connections between experts in different fields, from physical science to engineering. It will make new interdisciplinary systems and permit members to trade know-how and data to accomplish speedier and better results.

The future of quantum technology as seen from the EU, USA and Japan: experts’ vision over the next two decades

Dana Z. Anderson, Ph. Chomaz, Shigeki Takeuchi +29 more

Abstract The development of quantum technology is facing substantial scientific and technological challenges. More importantly, there are as-yet-unknown aspects and applications of quantum technology to be uncovered. There is thus global acknowledgement by stakeholder communities and governments alike that the ongoing advancement of quantum science and technology ought to be an international pursuit in which the strain between competition and cooperation is balanced through collaboration. It is in this spirit of ‘coopetition’ that this article seeks to give a cross-sectional view of the state of Quantum 2.0 technology in the USA, Europe and Japan, by providing the predictions of a large number of experts concerning progress in quantum technology over the next two decades.
