Briefings
Rigetti Computing partners with Quantum Elements to use the Constellation platform for simulating quantum processor behavior. Three years of collaboration validated the platform's ability to predict single- and two-qubit gate performance on 36-qubit and 108-qubit processors. The platform now feeds into Rigetti's quantum error correction pipeline to predict logical error rates. Dr. Subodh Kulkarni, CEO of Rigetti, and Izhar Medalsy, CEO of Quantum Elements, confirmed the integration.
Key points
- Rigetti Computing partners with Quantum Elements to use the Constellation platform for simulating quantum processor behavior.
- Three years of collaboration validated the platform's ability to predict single- and two-qubit gate performance on 36-qubit and 108-qubit processors.
Context
Quantum Elements' Constellation platform allows teams to run high-fidelity dynamic simulations on classical computers, enabling design, testing, and analysis of quantum systems before hardware experiments. This partnership is significant as it integrates quantum error correction pipeline inputs for noise models.
Limitations
Evidence is limited to a press release from November 2026. Specific error rates, simulation results, or future performance forecasts are not provided. The scope covers only the 36-qubit and 108-qubit processors mentioned in the collaboration.
