New research - and a world-first experimental result - display the potential for using quantum technology to explore new designs in material science, drugs or solar energy harvesting.

It was simulated on the quantum “device”. Source: it pretty much says so in the article description. The atom singular mentioned here would be the quantum memory.
A very clickbaity and misleading choice of headline, which is unbecoming of an actual university.

It sounds like it was an analogue simulation as opposed to a digital one, then, but they don’t want to use the s-word. It definitely didn’t involve an actual rhodopsin molecule frozen in slow-mo or whatever.
Very frustrating.
This allowed them to design and map this very complicated problem onto a relatively small quantum device – and then slow the process down by a factor of 100 billion.
What does this even mean???
Tried to access the journal article but it’s pay walled. The abstract doesn’t explain much.

Great thanks!
Quantum of Slowness. Coming soon, to laboratory near you.
