CERN QTI - Introduction to Quantum Computing
In 2020, CERN openlab and the CERN Quantum Technology Initiative organized a series of open, free lectures on quantum computing. These lectures introduce basic concepts of the quantum circuit model (qubits, gates, measures) and important quantum algorithms and protocols. Recordings and materials are available through the provided link.
Microsoft Learn - Quantum Computing Fundamentals Learning Path
This structured learning path from Microsoft introduces the fundamental concepts of quantum computing, explains how quantum computers operate, and identifies the types of problems quantum algorithms can solve. It's a free, self-paced course designed to build a strong foundational understanding.
Quantum Computer Science: An Introduction
Widely praised on Reddit for its accessibility, particularly for those without a strong physics background, this book offers a concise introduction to quantum computation. It develops the basic elements of the field without assuming prior knowledge of quantum mechanics. Related lecture notes are also available from Cornell University.
Quantum Country
Essays by Andy Matuschak and Michael Nielsen with embedded spaced-repetition quizzes; after reading you can follow quantum circuit notation, explain superposition and entanglement mathematically, and trace how Grover's search algorithm works.
Scott Aaronson's Blog
Shtetl-Optimized, written by quantum computing theorist Scott Aaronson, posts long arguments about P versus NP, quantum supremacy claims, and open problems. Readers gain a working sense of how complexity researchers actually debate results.
The New Quantum Era
Your host, Sebastian Hassinger, interviews brilliant research scientists, software developers, engineers and others actively exploring the possibilities of our new quantum era. We will cover topics in quantum computing, networking and sensing, focusing on hardware, algorithms and general theory. The show aims for accessibility - Sebastian is not a physicist - and we'll try to provide context for the terminology and glimpses at the fascinating history of this new field as it evolves in real time.
