Los Alamos National Laboratory

Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL) is a USA national laboratory founded in 1943 during Manhattan Project, located in Los Alamos, New Mexico, operated by Triad National Security LLC for United States Department of Energy and National Nuclear Security Administration. LANL conducts quantum computing research spanning quantum algorithms, quantum simulation, quantum cryptography, quantum networking, and quantum sensors for national security applications. The laboratory develops quantum technologies for nuclear weapons stewardship, materials science, secure communications, and sensing applications. LANL operates quantum computing testbeds exploring superconducting qubits, trapped ions, and quantum annealing for optimization and simulation problems. The laboratory collaborates with DOE National Quantum Information Science Research Centers and industry partners advancing quantum computing for national security missions. LANL serves Department of Defense, Department of Energy, and intelligence community requiring quantum computing capabilities for weapons physics, cryptanalysis, materials discovery, and quantum-safe cryptography protecting national security information against quantum threats.
