Scientists have used the famed "Schrödinger's cat" thought experiment to come up with a way to remove errors from future quantum computers. The new method encodes quantum information onto an ...

He imagined a box containing a radioactive atom, a vial of poison and a cat. Governed by quantum rules, the radioactive atom can either decay or not at any given moment. There’s no telling when ...

USTC researchers created a long-lived Schrödinger-cat state, boosting quantum metrology and precision measurements. Their ...
