Quantum Computers Have Potential To Simulate Particle Collisions
#-Link-Snipped-#are still being mentioned in future tense. Though the technology required by them is too complex to come anytime soon, three scientists believe that physicists some day may employ these computers to analyze the working of the universe, in a much better way as compared to the present-day supercomputers. All they have done is derived benefit of the quantum mechanics, laws that determine interaction of subatomic particles. These laws let the quantum switches stay in both on-off states at the same time, so that the physicists may reflect on all probable solutions right then. This means that not only the present issues would be solved quickly with the quantum computers, but also other major issues could be considered.

Stephen Jordan, a theorist at NIST's Applied and Computational Mathematics Division, pondered whether this theoretical model they've come up with can reveal all the possibilities that may occur in nature. For this, they developed an algorithm that would simulate all the probable interactions between two fundamental particles colliding with each other. Though this algorithm only caters to a particular kind of collision, they believe that this could be employed to the complete standard model of Physics.
