(Fig.1) ↓ Fake "future" target = quantum ? ;
Quantum mechanics invented 100 years ago is unrealistic and useless, relying on fictitious quasiparticles to explain all physical phenomena.
Quasiparticle is unreal, having fake (= effective ) mass and charge, which are freely-adjustable to deal with different phenomena, so meaningless in predicting new reactions.
For useless quantum physics to get research funds, physicists needed to create fake target = fictional quantum computer which is supposed to exploit fantasy parallel worlds for faster (← ? ) parallel computing ? ← still Not reality.
To hide the inconvenient fact that the current quantum physics is useless with No progress, academia spreads fake news to deceive people into falsely believing their researches are worth taxpayers' money.
If you carefully read each quantum technology news, you will notice they make No progress, just using misleading phrases to get your hopes up.
This week solid-physics is still full of unreal quasiparticle such as magnon ( this, this ), phonon ( this, this, this ), polaron ( this, this ), polariton ( this, this ).
Other unreal quasiparticles are exciton ( this, this ), spinon ( this ), skyrmion ( this, this ), dark photon, Majorana ( this, this ), Dirac ( this, this ), Weyl ( this ).
The last of this news just vaguely says "The new methods, could help to make environmental sensors like this much cheaper in the future ?" ← just about "imaginary future". Still useless. Unreal phonon quasiparticle is used ( this p.1 right-lower )
The last of this news using unreal phonon quasiparticle just vaguely says "The next stage is to clarify the difference and similarity between the nickelates and cuprates in a more systematic way ?" ← Vague. Nothing useful is specified.
The last of this news using unreal quasiparticle plasmon just vaguely says "Higly miniaturized near-infrared spectrometers were realized, and are expected to lead to new small sized IoT sensors ?" ← just about "imaginary future". Still useless.
The first of this news just vaguely says "Quantum computers are expected to offer tremendous computational power for complex problems ?" ← just about "imaginary future". Nothing is realized now.
The last of this news just vaguely says "The researchers hope their foundational work will help build a roadmap towards fault tolerance in quantum computing ?" ← just about "imaginary future". Still useless.
The last paragraph of this news just vaguely says "This landmark result will open up a treasure trove of discoveries and applications ?" ← Just speculation, still useless.
The last paragraph of this news just vaguely says "If quantum computers can produce results close to these results, we will know they work ?" ← just about "imaginary future". Nothing is realized now.
The second paragraph of this news just vaguely says "So far, only prototypes of a quantum computer have been created, but scientists agree that in the future, such a computer will have incredible computing capabilities ?" ← just about "imaginary future". Still useless.
The last of this news just vaguely says "We hope that our findings can improve the understanding of the glass transition ?" ← Just "hope", still useless.
The first paragraph of this news just vaguely says "the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI), the same computing concept that will empower self-driving cars ?" ← just about "imaginary future". Nothing is realized now.
The last of this news just vaguely says "The results presented in the article are merely a first step in what will surely be a long and fruitful journey towards new thrilling chemistry and physics ?" ← just about "imaginary future". Still useless. Unreal one-electron approximation = DFT is used ( this 2.2 )
The last of this news just vaguely says "We hope the findings can provide insights into the understanding of multiple impurity systems ?" ← Just speculation, still useless.
The last of this news just vaguely says ".. intend to further investigate the scaling behavior ?" ← just about "imaginary future". Still useless.
The last of this news just vaguely says "In the future, the researchers plan to carry out further studies aimed at rigorously proving their conjecture that classical time crystals exist ?" ← just about "imaginary future". Nothing is realized now.
The first paragraph of this news just vaguely says "Regarded as a major step in creating more powerful particle accelerators, this new muon accelerator is expected to provide a better understanding of the fundamental constituents of matter ?" ← Vague goal. Nothing useful is specified. Wasting money in useless collider.
