Summary
IQM Quantum Computers has deployed a 54-qubit Radiance quantum computer, named NOX, at CINECA in Bologna, Italy. The system is directly integrated with Leonardo, one of the world's fastest supercomputers, at the ICSC research centre. This is the second IQM quantum computer to become operational in Italy, supporting research in optimization, simulation, and machine learning. The installation strengthens Italy's quantum computing infrastructure and enables hybrid classical-quantum computing capabilities.
