Mitsui Works With Quantinuum and QSimulate to Launch Quantum-Integrated Chemistry Platform
Mitsui & Co. has formally launched a new quantum-enabled chemistry platform, QIDO, in collaboration with U.S.-based Quantinuum and QSimulate. The system, designed to accelerate the discovery of new materials and pharmaceuticals, blends classical and quantum computing resources to streamline complex chemical calculation, according to a story in Nikkei and a Quantinuum blog post.
Quantum computers hold promise for modeling chemical reactions beyond the reach of traditional supercomputers. But fully fault-tolerant systems remain years away, leaving companies searching for ways to extract value from today’s noisy, early-stage machines. QIDO, short for Quantum-Integrated Discovery Orchestrator, attempts to bridge that gap.
The platform runs most computations on powerful classical hardware while sending only the most computationally expensive steps — such as the modeling of strongly correlated electrons — to a quantum computer. This hybrid workflow allows companies to perform higher-precision chemical simulations today, without waiting for fully mature quantum systems, Nikkei reports.

Carbon-fiber smart plastic: Self-healing, shape-shifting and stronger than steel
Aerospace engineering and materials science researchers at Texas A&M University have uncovered new properties of an ultra-durable, recyclable, smart plastic—paving the way for transformative applications in the defense, aerospace and automotive industries.
The research, published in Macromolecules and the Journal of Composite Materials, was led by Dr. Mohammad Naraghi, director of the Nanostructured Materials Lab and professor of aerospace engineering at Texas A&M, in close collaboration with Dr. Andreas Polycarpou at The University of Tulsa.
Their work explored the mechanical integrity, shape-recovery and self-healing properties of an advanced carbon-fiber plastic composite called Aromatic Thermosetting Copolyester (ATSP).
Singularities are Inevitable, Physicist Claims

According to Einstein’s theories, the universe started with a Big Bang singularity and is slowly expanding until it disperses into nothingness. But physicists have also come up with theories claiming that the Big Bang was non-singular and can repeat, restarting the cycle over again. These are called “cyclic models,” and they’ve re-emerged into the spotlight now that there’s mounting evidence that dark energy is weakening over time. However, a physicist from UC Berkeley recently published a paper which he claims “categorically rules out” cyclic models. Let’s take a look.
