Classical computer solves chemistry problem without quantum hardware (opens in new tab)

Scientists reported solving a quantum-dynamics problem relevant to chemistry on a classical computer rather than a quantum computer, according to ScienceAlert and Quanta Magazine. Quanta described the result as an answer to a key chemistry question that did not require quantum hardware, while ScienceAlert said the computation solved an "impossible" quantum puzzle on a personal computer. The reporting centers on Garnet Chan, a chemist who studies biochemical processes and has taken part in deb...
