Quantum information processing: a bibliometric glance

About 40 years ago, scientists began to think about the consequences of combining quantum mechanics with a classic Turing machine. Today, before our eyes, a new era is emerging in the field of information technology, based on the power of quanta. In the paper a brief bibliometric analysis of the development of research in the field of quantum information processing for the period 2000-2017 is presented. The main global players (countries and groups of countries), as well as sources of sponsorship of published results are identified. The twists and turns in course of ongoing scientific rivalry are shown, including benchmarking of Russia against its main competitors. It was established that, despite the seemingly high level of confidentiality, extensive international cooperation is typical for research in the field. Considered domestic research landscape. A significant concentration of research in metropolitan research centers, which is characteristic for this emerging field has been shown; identified the ten most productive domestic organizations, as well as the scientists who made the largest publication contribution. The intensity and characteristic structure of international co-authorship links of Russian scientists, as well as the main domestic and foreign sources of research support are revealed. Information for analysis is obtained from the most authoritative in the world polythemic database Science Citation Index Expanded.
