ACM A.M. Turing Award honours Charles Bennett and Gilles Brassard for foundational contributions to Quantum Information Science

Bennett and Brassard are widely recognized as founders of quantum information science, a field at the intersection of physics and computer science that treats quantum mechanical phenomena not merely as properties of matter, but as resources for processing and transmitting information.
