Replication efforts suggest 'smoking gun' evidence isn't enough to prove quantum computing claims

Summary by Phys.org
A group of scientists, including Sergey Frolov, professor of physics at the University of Pittsburgh, and co-authors from Minnesota and Grenoble have undertaken several replication studies centered around topological effects in nanoscale superconducting or semiconducting devices. This field is important because it can bring about topological quantum computing, a hypothetical way of storing and manipulating quantum information while protecting it…

A group of scientists, including Sergey Frolov, professor of physics at the University of Pittsburgh, and co-authors from Minnesota and Grenoble, have undertaken several replication studies focusing on topological effects in superconductor or semiconductor devices on a nanoscale. This field is important because it can give rise to topological quantum computing, [...]

Scientists warn of a brutal mistake in thinking: Measurement data can look like a breakthrough – even though there are banal effects behind it.The article Smoking Gun: This is how false breakthroughs in quantum computing were first published on ingenieur.de - Jobbörse und Nachrichtenportal für Ingenieure.
