Logical quantum processor based on reconfigurable atom arrays

Dolev Bluvstein, Simon J. Evered and Alexandra A. Geim

The authors demonstrated a programmable quantum processor using reconfigurable arrays of neutral atoms that operates on encoded logical qubits rather than physical ones. They ran error-correcting codes, performed logical entangling operations and algorithms on dozens of logical qubits, and showed that increasing code distance improved logical performance. The work is a key step toward fault-tolerant quantum computation with atom arrays.

Probing many-body dynamics on a 51-atom quantum simulator

Hannes Bernien, Sylvain Schwartz, Alexander Keesling, Harry Levine, Ahmed Omran, Hannes Pichler, et al.

The authors built a programmable quantum simulator using up to 51 individually trapped neutral atoms coupled to Rydberg states via optical tweezers. By tuning interactions they probed quantum many-body dynamics in a regime inaccessible to classical computation, observing the emergence of ordered antiferromagnetic phases and unexpectedly persistent, slowly relaxing oscillations after a quench. These long-lived coherent revivals later became understood as a signature of quantum many-body scars.
