A robust cryogenic infrastructure in form of a wired, thermally optimized dilution refrigerator is essential for present and future solid-state based quantum processors.

Fast, high-fidelity readout of qubits is crucial in quantum computing. Quantum error correction particular requires the repeated measurement subsets without perturbing any others. Achieving this goal a multiplexed architecture has been challenging, mainly due to crosstalk signals. In work, individual Purcell filters are used for each resonator protect from untargeted signals, and radiative decay.

Quantum simulations are expected to vastly outperform classical when modeling the dynamics of interacting spin systems. A digital quantum simulation shows that can be studied and predicted, laying groundwork for applications in magnetism.
Variational quantum algorithms are believed to be promising for solving computationally hard problems on noisy intermediate-scale (NISQ) systems.
