Non-grieving anions observed for the first time - a new technology for quantum computing?

  • 3 תגובות
The non-Abelian anions are quasi-particles with fascinating statistical and topological properties. Until recently, these particles were only theoretical, but now a research group from Harvard University has created them for the first time in the laboratory. The discovery may encourage companies in the field of quantum computing to use non-Abelian anions to create durable qubits.

The diagram simulates our algorithm for playing cards. The immediate effect of measuring one qubit on the others is similar to covert communication between players. Quantum computers use this effect to win the game with a higher probability compared to classical players. The diagram combines from left to right: 1) card game, 2) quantum circuit, 3) coin lottery (probability), 4) measurement of the qubits, 5) use of a classical algorithm that reduces the amount of noise, 6) analysis of the results.

A team of researchers from Harvard University, MIT and Calcutta in collaboration with Google successfully simulated a traversable wormhole with the help of a quantum computer. The experiment performed on Google's quantum processor demonstrated the passage of information in the interlaced system. According to the principle of holography, the physics demonstrated in the experiment is the same as that of particles passing through wormholes. Although it was conducted on only nine qubits, the experiment is of great importance because it illustrates for the first time the possibility of testing quantum gravity with the help of entangled systems.
