Comparison between the results of a physical experiment at 6 Kelvin and a simulation performed on an IBM quantum computer for the magnetic material KCuF₃. The similarity between the neutron scattering patterns strengthens the claim that quantum computing can already be used as a reliable tool for studying quantum materials.
