SPEAKER for Main Meeting:Chapman Student Kevin Le on Quantum computing Feb 15, 2026
Overview of Presentation:Quantum computing is a revolutionary paradigm that leverag-es the counterintuitive principles of quantum mechanics to process information. Unlike classical computers that use bi-nary bits (0 or 1), quantum systems utilize qubits. These units can exist in a superposition, representing multiple states sim-ultaneously, which allows for massive parallel processing. Through entanglement, qubits become intrinsically linked, enabling them to work in perfect synchronization. This capa-bility allows quantum computers to solve complex problems in materials science, cryptography, and drug discovery that would take classical supercomputers millennia to complete.
