CAS Cold Atom Technology presents "Hanyuan-2", the world's first dual-core quantum computer with 200 qubits, according to its own statements.
Quantum computers are able to solve complex problems much faster than a conventional computer. In fact, not even the world’s most powerful supercomputers with thousands of CPUs and GPUs can be compared to a quantum computer on certain tasks. This is because quantums do not use bits, but qubits (cubits), which allows them to go beyond having a state 0 or 1, as they may be in both states at once. While quantum computing seems to be always related …
China's 'Hanyuan-2' has emerged as the world's first dual-core quantum computer, boasting 200 qubits and remarkable power efficiency, although performance benchmarks have not yet been released.
On May 7, 2026, Zhongke Kuyuan Technology, a Wuhan-based company under the Chinese Academy of Sciences, announced the ' Hanyuan-2, ' a dual-core neutral-atom quantum computer touted as the world's first. This follows the company's launch of the 'Hanyuan-1,' China's first commercial neutral-atom quantum computer, in 2024, as reported by the Chinese state-run media outlet Science and Technology Daily. Global flagship twin-nuclear neutral atom quan…
Chinese researchers have introduced Hanyuan-2, a quantum computer that, according to the developers, is the first of its kind with a dual-core architecture.The system comes from CAS Cold Atom Technology, a Wuhan company affiliated with the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and is intended to lead Chinese quantum research from the laboratory world into industrial use.

The Ghost in the Machine: Why China‘s ‘World First‘ Quantum Computer Deserves Nothing but Skepticism
The quantum computing race just got a new contender, or at least that is what the press release wants you to believe. On May 8, 2026, a Wuhan-based firm called CAS Cold Atom Technology, closely tied to the Chinese Academy of Sciences, pulled the curtain back on the Hanyuan-2. It is being heralded as the […] The post The Ghost in the Machine: Why China‘s ‘World First‘ Quantum Computer Deserves Nothing but Skepticism appeared first on micetimes.as…
China Launches 200‑Qubit Dual‑Core Quantum Computer Using Under 7kW Power
China has unveiled the Hanyuan-2, the world’s first dual-core quantum computer with 200 qubits, consuming less than 7 kW of power. Built by CAS Cold Atom Technology in Wuhan, it uses neutral atom arrays instead of superconducting or ion-trap systems, making it far more energy-efficient and easier to operate.Developed by CAS Cold Atom Technology, a company linked to the Chinese Academy of Sciences and headquartered in Wuhan, Hanyuan-2 is built ar…
