In an experiment, it is shown that quantum key distribution networks, a component of highly secure cryptography systems, are also capable of locating and detecting earthquakes.
When shaking waves caused by an earthquake are anticipated to arrive at a place, devices and people are alerted by earthquake early warning (EEW) systems using monitoring system technology and earthquake science.
The Global Quantum computing-based earthquake prediction system market accounted for $XX Billion in 2022 and is anticipated to reach $XX Billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of XX% from 2023 to 2030.
The academic community has long been heavily invested in earthquake detection. The development of an early earthquake detection system has taken a very long period, though. The idea of quantum computing is therefore used in this work to suggest a new technique for early earthquake detection.
In order to do this, they propose a technique for tracking the impact of a change on a pair of entangled photons in order to observe instantaneous changes in the earth’s gravity field.
One of the photons in this instance is located in a region that is prone to earthquakes, and the other photon is at a satellite orbiting the earth. The technique, which makes use of the idea of quantum computing, is capable of detecting even the smallest change in a location’s gravity field.
A large earthquake that is about to occur can be accurately predicted in advance through further analysis of the shift. It creates a quantitative model that is appropriate for their suggested approach.
Then, using the created model as a foundation, they run a numerical exercise. The effectiveness of the technique for earthquake early detection is shown by simulation results.
The gravitational field in the region surrounding the epicentre considerably changes prior to a strong earthquake. The wavelength of a photon dropped on Earth is altered by changes in gravity, moving it to the left or right of the electromagnetic spectrum, accordingly.
