How quantum computers stay colder than deep space

Original: Quantum computers can get colder than deep space — Here's how they stay running Heat disrupts the accuracy of a quantum

Quantum computers must operate at temperatures far below those of deep space, because even small amounts of heat disrupt the accuracy of their delicate quantum states. Engadget explains the extreme cooling systems, such as dilution refrigerators, that keep the machines running and why the hardware fails if temperatures rise.

Why now: Ongoing public interest in how quantum computing hardware works amid rapid progress in the field

• Quantum computers can get colder than deep space — Here's how they stay running Heat disrupts the accuracy of a quantum computer, so the computer needs to be kept as cold as possible. Which is extremely cold, it turns out. https://www. engadget.com/2292950/how-quant… · techwire@gamefan.net · 2
