The characterization and detection of noise procedures known as non-Gaussian in quantum computers were undertaken by researchers from MIT(Massachusetts Institute of Technology) and Dartmouth College.
This procedure is instrumental in ensuring that efficiency is optimized in quantum computing networks. The characterization of the noise was made in superconducting quantum bits.
Acceleration of quantum computers
The findings obtained might be pivotal in propelling the attainment of exceptional quantum computing systems.
The research was founded on a previous theoretical study conducted in 2016. Moreover, it was undertaken at Dartmouth College and was availed in Physical Review Letters.
According to Lorenza Viola, the leader of the 2016 study and a physics professor at Dartmouth College, the detection of non-Gaussian noise was a crucial step of characterizing some of the complexities witnessed in quantum computers.
Non-Gaussian noise is instrumental
Quantum computers are distinctive as compared to traditional ones because they do not rely on binary(on-off) sequencing depended on by the latter. They depend on quantum bits usually generated from subatomic and atomic particles.
Notably, qubits can be combined using both on and off scenarios simultaneously. They also hold the characteristic of entanglement as a single qubit is influential on another irrespective of distance.
The detection of non-Gaussian noise is instrumental because superconducting qubit structures are being favored in the development of high-performing and scalable quantum computers.
On the other hand, Quantum physics has been instrumental in offering particular answers, especially probabilistic or in layman’s terms, likely ones.
As a result, the fifty-fifty (50-50) idea is derived and resulted in the measurement problem that has been subjected to numerous declarations, interpretations, opinions, and essays.
Additionally, Quantum physics has also led to the emergence of quantum computing. Notably, in Europe, quantum computing education has received a considerable boost from IBM.
