Independent Study Shows Quantinuum Outperforming Superconducting Systems on Key Operations for Fault Tolerance

In a new independent study from the Jülich Supercomputing Centre, Quantinuum’s Helios demonstrated an approximately order-of-magnitude advantage over superconducting hardware in tests of operations essential to quantum error correction. More precisely, Helios’ effective hardware error was approximately 13 times lower at 30 data qubits and eight times lower at 50 data qubits than the comparable superconducting result.
