Francisco Romão, Daniel Vonk, Emmanuil Giortamis +2 more·Jan 13, 2026
Neutral atom Quantum Processing Units (QPUs) are emerging as a popular quantum computing technology due to their large qubit counts and flexible connectivity. However, performance challenges arise as large circuits experience significant fidelity dro...
Dissipative ground-state preparation of a quantum spin chain on a trapped-ion quantum computer
Kazuhiro Seki, Yuta Kikuchi, Tomoya Hayata +1 more·Jan 13, 2026
We demonstrate a dissipative protocol for ground-state preparation of a quantum spin chain on a trapped-ion quantum computer. As a first step, we derive a Kraus representation of a dissipation channel for the protocol recently proposed by Ding et al....

Siddhant Singh, Rikiya Kashiwagi, Kazufumi Tanji +4 more·Jan 12, 2026
Fault-tolerant modular quantum computing requires stabilizer measurements across the modules in a quantum network. For this, entangled states of high quality and rate must be distributed. Currently, two main types of entanglement distribution protoco...
Nonadiabatic theory for subcycle ionic dynamics in multielectron tunneling ionization
