Google Quantum AI Reveals Bound States of Photons Hold Strong Even in the Midst of Chaos

A ring of superconducting qubits can host “bound states” of microwave photons, wherever the photons are inclined to clump on neighboring qubit sites. Credit history: Google Quantum AI Applying a quantum processor, scientists made microwave photons uncharacteristically sticky. Following coaxing them to clump collectively into bound states, they learned that these photon clusters survived in
