In an article published in the journal Science, D-Wave said its quantum computer “outperformed one of the world’s most powerful classical supercomputers” at solving complex simulation problems.

D-Wave shares were up 10% in recent trading, while shares of fellow quantum computing firms Rigetti Computing (RGTI) and Quantum Computing (QUBT) also gained.

Quantum computing developments have been in the spotlight in recent months, with Google parent Alphabet (GOOGL) unveiling a quantum chip known as Willow in December. Microsoft (MSFT) followed suit last month with its own quantum chip, 澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果体彩网:Majorana 1.
