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.","last_synced_at":"2026-07-28T06:19:15.608488+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-new-quantum-era-innovation-in-quantum-computing-science-and-technology-5609388"},"episode":{"title":"Quantum Chemistry's Classical Limits with Garnet Chan","slug":"quantum-chemistry-s-classical-limits-with-garnet-chan","published_at":"2026-04-20T14:39:17+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-new-quantum-era-innovation-in-quantum-computing-science-and-technology-5609388/quantum-chemistry-s-classical-limits-with-garnet-chan","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-new-quantum-era-innovation-in-quantum-computing-science-and-technology-5609388","url":"https://www.newquantumera.com/podcast/quantum-chemistrys-classical-limits-with-garnet-chan","audio_url":"https://op3.dev/e/dts.podtrac.com/redirect.mp3/media.transistor.fm/1beea582/0a659f07.mp3","summary":"One of the most-cited arguments for near-term quantum advantage in chemistry just got a rigorous classical answer — from one of the world's leading quantum chemists. Garnet Chan's group at Caltech solved the FeMo-cofactor ground-state energy problem classically, to chemical accuracy, using tensor networks and coupled cluster methods. If you've heard that quantum computers are uniquely needed to simulate nitrogen fixation, this episode will sharpen — and complicate — that picture.","meta_description":"One of the most-cited arguments for near-term quantum advantage in chemistry just got a rigorous classical answer — from one of the world's leading quantu…","key_points":[],"chapters":[],"topics":[],"duration_seconds":2473,"processing_state":"not_requested","actions":[{"name":"request_transcript","method":"POST","url":"https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/the-new-quantum-era-innovation-in-quantum-computing-science-and-technology-5609388/episodes/quantum-chemistry-s-classical-limits-with-garnet-chan/transcription-requests","description":"Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode."},{"name":"read_markdown","method":"GET","url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-new-quantum-era-innovation-in-quantum-computing-science-and-technology-5609388/quantum-chemistry-s-classical-limits-with-garnet-chan.md","description":"Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource."}]}}
