Phase transitions in random circuit sampling.

Undesired coupling to the surrounding environment destroys long-range correlations in quantum processors and hinders coherent evolution in the nominally available computational space. This noise is an outstanding challenge when leveraging the computation power of near-term quantum processors. It has been shown that benchmarking random circuit sampling with cross-entropy benchmarking can provide an estimate of the effective size of the Hilbert space coherently available.

A protective effect of lower MHC-II expression in MOGAD.

Myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein-antibody-associated disease (MOGAD) is a demyelinating central nervous system disorder. We aimed to uncover immune pathways altered in MOGAD to predict disease progression. Using nanostring nCounter technology, we analyzed immune gene expression in PBMCs from MOGAD patients and compare it with healthy controls (HCs).

Spontaneous Pneumothorax in a Healthy Young Woman: Discussion About Treatment Options.

A spontaneous pneumothorax, a potentially life-threatening condition, is a disease process in which air enters the space between the visceral and parietal pleural of the lung, thus increasing the pressures in that space. It can be diagnosed by both physical exam and radiographic testing. In this case, we present a 21-year-old, otherwise healthy woman who presented with sudden, sharp shoulder pain and chest tightness and was diagnosed with her first, spontaneous pneumothorax.

Dynamics of magnetization at infinite temperature in a Heisenberg spin chain.

Understanding universal aspects of quantum dynamics is an unresolved problem in statistical mechanics. In particular, the spin dynamics of the one-dimensional Heisenberg model were conjectured as to belong to the Kardar-Parisi-Zhang (KPZ) universality class based on the scaling of the infinite-temperature spin-spin correlation function. In a chain of 46 superconducting qubits, we studied the probability distribution of the magnetization transferred across the chain's center, [Formula: see text].

Stable quantum-correlated many-body states through engineered dissipation.

Engineered dissipative reservoirs have the potential to steer many-body quantum systems toward correlated steady states useful for quantum simulation of high-temperature superconductivity or quantum magnetism. Using up to 49 superconducting qubits, we prepared low-energy states of the transverse-field Ising model through coupling to dissipative auxiliary qubits. In one dimension, we observed long-range quantum correlations and a ground-state fidelity of 0.
