@ 2022/10/25Created a new type of matter, two time directions, and a surprised cat
Physicists shot a laser pulse sequence mimicking the Fibonacci sequence at a quantum computer and ended up creating a new phase of matter.
According to popular science mag Nature, the newfound phase of matter is robust in preserving information. This could make quantum computers to be far more reliable, since with current technology, keeping qubits in their quantum states is a tricky, particularly if you have to reverse the polarity on the neutron flow.
In quantum computing, a qubit is that it can be one or zero at the same time, potentially allowing quantum computers to rip into your maths homework faster than a normal PC. The downside, at least how we understand it is that they require a potentially dead or alive cat in an extremely controlled environment (such as a cardboard box) in which a slight perturbation, like a minuscule change in temperature, could cause the qubits to lose their quantum states — and their information.
