== Summary ==

Our team of quantum computing analysts provides expertise, support and training on quantum computing and hybrid classical-quantum computing. As of the fall of 2024, Calcul Québec will offer access to a 24 qubit superconducting quantum computer called [[MonarQ/en|MonarQ]], coupled with the [[Narval/en|Narval]] cluster.

<b>What is quantum computing?</b> A quantum computer takes advantage of the characteristics of quantum particles (<i>qubits</i>), including superposition of states, constructive and destructive interference, and entanglement. With these properties, a new computational paradigm promises greater parallelization to solve complex problems that cannot be managed by classical computing systems.

== Applications ==

There are several specialized software libraries for performing quantum computing and developing quantum algorithms. You can use these libraries to build circuits that are run on simulators mimicking the performance and results obtained on a quantum computer. These libraries can be used on all of our clusters.   

* [[PennyLane/en|PennyLane]], for Python commands

* [[Snowflurry/en|Snowflurry]], for Julia commands

* [[Qiskit/fr|Qiskit]], for Python commands
