Q-CTRL launches Dynamics Simulator on IBM Quantum, up to 3,000x faster than classical tools
MJBiercuk · x · 2026-11-11
Q-CTRL released its third Qiskit Function, the Dynamics Simulator, putting its Practical Quantum Advantage tech into a single function call on IBM Quantum. Benchmarks show materials-science simulations up to 3,000x faster than industry-standard classical software at equal accuracy, and the same workflow now runs another 12x faster on IBM's Nighthawk processor vs Heron r3. With roughly a third of global supercomputer time already spent on chemistry/materials simulation, users define the physics while circuit design, hardware mapping and error suppression run automatically. To be presented at IBM QDC on Nov 12.
