FREMONT, Calif., Sept. 16, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Rigetti Computing, Inc. (“Rigetti” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq: RGTI), a pioneer in hybrid quantum-classical computing, will share business developments, together with updates concerning its partnerships, Fab-1 facility, and standing of its know-how roadmap, forward of its beforehand introduced inaugural investor day.
“As a trailblazer in quantum, Rigetti is focused on delivering performance at scale with the goal of becoming the industry standard,” stated Chad Rigetti, founder and CEO of the Company. “We are making strategic investments in quantum hardware, software, and partnerships that we believe will enable us to progress toward Quantum Advantage.”
“In addition, we’re excited to announce several key partnerships,” Rigetti continued. “These include a partnership with Bluefors to develop new modular dilution fridges to support our planned 336Q, 1,000+ qubit, and 4,000+ qubit quantum processing units. Earlier this week, we announced the public preview of our current 80Q Aspen-M-2 and 40Q Aspen-11 systems on Microsoft’s Azure Quantum. Rigetti quantum computers are now available on the world’s two largest public cloud platforms.”
Keysight True-Q Error Mitigation Tools on Rigetti Quantum Cloud Services (QCS™)
Rigetti anticipates the upcoming launch of Keysight’s True-Q error mitigation software program built-in into Rigetti QCS within the coming months. For Rigetti, this would be the first third occasion software program software to be built-in immediately into the QCS platform, anticipated to advance the Company’s partnership technique to speed up towards quantum benefit.
“Keysight’s True-Q software brings a broad suite of capabilities that is expected to help Rigetti’s user base achieve higher performance quantum computing,” stated Joseph Emerson, Director of Advanced Research, QES at Keysight Technologies. “We have worked together to streamline access for Rigetti customers to Keysight’s advanced quantum compiler technologies. I am excited to see the results of the integration of Keysight software tools with the Rigetti platform.”
Collaboration with NVIDIA to Develop Hybrid GPU-QPU Workflow for Climate Modeling
Rigetti is embarking on a brand new collaboration with NVIDIA to develop a hybrid GPU-QPU workflow for local weather modeling purposes. The mission goals to guage the potential for slender quantum benefit on this analysis area by making use of quantum machine studying methods in a high-performance hybrid workflow. The work builds on current climate modeling software analysis by Rigetti.
“Addressing the challenges of an evolving climate is one of society’s most important tasks, and improving our ability to model the climate is essential to making data-driven decisions,” stated Tim Costa, Director of HPC and Quantum Product at NVIDIA. “Working with Rigetti, we’ll explore how combining the best of quantum and GPU-accelerated computing can help address this challenge.”
Public Preview of Rigetti Quantum Processors on Microsoft Azure Quantum
Earlier this week, Rigetti introduced the discharge of its Aspen-M-2 80-qubit and Aspen-11 40-qubit in public preview on Azure Quantum. Rigetti’s integration with Azure helps Quil, Rigetti’s native quantum programming language, and Quil-T for pulse stage programming. With the Azure announcement, Rigetti is now out there on the world’s two largest public cloud platforms.
Performance at Scale: Aiming to Deliver Next-Generation Hardware in 2023
- Rigetti stays on monitor to ship in opposition to its beforehand disclosed {hardware} roadmap in 2023 with a deal with delivering efficiency at scale. The upcoming 84-qubit Ankaa™ system is deliberate for launch in 2023, adopted by the 336-qubit Lyra™ system anticipated later in 2023. Ankaa and Lyra are anticipated to leverage Rigetti’s fourth era circuit structure, introducing larger connectivity and tunable coupling, designed to finally ship fidelities exceeding 99%. Notably, the Lyra system is predicted to carry collectively Rigetti developments in scale and efficiency by combining Rigetti’s current multi-chip scaling know-how with the fourth era structure.
- Rigetti is increasing its Fab-1 facility, which it expects to be accomplished late within the fourth quarter of 2022. The build-out contains a further 5,000 sq. toes of unpolluted room area for wafer manufacturing—practically doubling its authentic capability—in addition to further capabilities for performing tightly built-in cryo-microwave testing on Rigetti quantum chips.
- Rigetti has entered right into a partnership with Bluefors, a number one supplier of cryogenic methods, to develop next-generation cryogenic platforms anticipated for use for Rigetti’s anticipated 336-qubit, 1,000+ qubit, and 4,000+ qubit quantum processing items. These new KIDE cryogenic platforms are anticipated to offer the bigger measurement, elevated cooling energy, and modular design wanted to assist Rigetti’s built-in product roadmap. Rigetti plans to take supply of its first KIDE in early 2023, with subsequent deliveries deliberate for late 2023 and past.
