The TGCC has just welcomed Lucy on-premises! Lucy is the name of the photonic quantum computer from Quandela. This system, supplied by the Franco-German consortium Quandela – attocube systems AG, was acquired by the EuroHPC Joint Undertaking as part of the EuroQCS-France consortium. The French share of this acquisition is financed, via GENCI, by the French General Secretariat for Investment (SGPI) through the France 2030 programme, as part of the National Quantum Strategy. With a capacity of 12 qubits, Lucy offers researchers and industrial users a unique platform for experimenting with quantum algorithms, exploring hybrid HPC-quantum workflows, and developing initial applications in fields such as optimization, chemistry, and machine learning.

The CEA mobilized for HPC, AI, and quantum computing
CEA/DAM teams participated in the ISC High Performance 2025 conference in Hamburg, Germany, and the Teratec forum in Paris, to present DAM's expertise and activities in the fields of High Performance Computing (HPC) and Quantum Computing (QC), as well as partnership opportunities related to the CCRT (Research and Technology Computing Centre). These events provided an opportunity to meet the entire scientific and industrial community in the field and to present future projects, such as the arrival of the Alice Recoque exascale machine at the TGCC.
