How capable are modern quantum computers?


The image above this text is M.C Escher's "Ascending and descending" is basing the Penrose stairs. But that drawing is a very good illustration of the superposition. We can think that the walking men are portraying the atoms, what are put in molecular superposition. That means that when the other series of atoms is giving its energy to other series, the individual atoms would rise in the higher energy level, and the others will go to a lower energy level. In this model, the atoms would deliver energy to the other atom, which oscillates at the same frequency.

So that drawing could use to demonstrate the problems of the qubit. When the energy level of the other atoms is rising, they are losing energy at the same time to the structures. Sooner or later the energy of those atoms is ending. And the problem is that the attempt to increase the energy level of those "tired atoms" from outside makes them oscillate, and lose the information that is stored in them. This is the problem with quantum computers. Theoretically, they are ready to work. But the practical solutions are harder to make than researchers ever imagine. 

If we are thinking that a two-atomic molecule is turned to the qubit, the other atom must put in a higher energy level than the other. And then we should read the data that is stored in that molecule. So do you even imagine, what accuracy that thing requires? What is needed to separate data from individual atoms? 

The fact is that quantum computers are in the level of experimental use. That means that there are many things, that the creators of the system must win if they want to make those systems every-day use, or so good and trustable that they can be used in time or mission-critical systems. The problem is that the qubit must be in absolute stable condition, that it would not lose its data. And the superposition of the qubit is possible to make only in the molecular form of atoms. So that thing requires very high accuracy and making that thing in practice is difficult.

Plasmonic waves can make new waves in quantum technology.

"LSU researchers have made a significant discovery related to the fundamental properties and behavior of plasmonic waves, which can lead ot the development of more sensitive and robust quantum technologies. Credit: LSU" (ScitechDaily, Plasmonics Breakthrough Unleashes New Era of Quantum Technologies) Plasmonic waves in the quantum gas are the next-generation tools. The plasmonic wave is quite similar to radio waves. Or, rather say it, a combination of acoustic waves and electromagnetic waves. Quantum gas is an atom group. In those atom groups, temperature and pressure are extremely low.  The distance of atoms is long. And when an electromagnetic system can pump energy to those atoms. But the thing in quantum gas is that the atoms also make physical movements like soundwaves. It's possible. To create quantum gas using monoatomic ions like ionized noble gas. In those systems, positive (or negative) atoms push each other away.  When the box is filled with quantum gas and som

What is the difference between TR-3A and TR-3B? And are those planes real?

What is the difference between TR-3A and TR-3B? And are those planes real? Is TR-3B (0) "Black Triangle UFO" or is it only the piece of paper?  The study project, what is used to create advanced ideas for use of the nuclear-powered aircraft. Or is it the study project or black budget aircraft, where lost 2,3 trillion dollars (1)of the stealth bomber were gone. In this text is things, that might seem very difficult to accept, and when we are thinking about things like doubling the object or making it smaller by using huge layers of energy, nothing denies to test those things. But were those tests successful, there is no data about that in public Internet, so we must say that things like doubling the human or aircraft can be tested, but the results can be unknown.  But in the source two is the tale, what seems like impossible, those men, who got Noble Prize put at first time one atom to the box, and hit it with photon one photon in the box and hit it with t

The interesting coincidence between USS Sea Shadow (1982) and CSS Virginia (1862)

Image I The interesting coincidence between  USS Sea Shadow (1982) and CSS Virginia (1862) Far away from its time is the thing, that you might notice when you see those two images. The upper one (Image I) is portraying the modern naval USS Sea Shadow (IX-529)(1) experimental Stealth ship, which was created by Lockheed-Martin, and the image below (Image II) is portraying the CSS Virginia (2), the ironclad from the Civil War Era. The thing why the hull of the CSS Virginia, what is ironclad from 1862 is that the ammunition of the cannons would not transfer their impact energy to the hull of the ship. And the reason why Sea Shadows hull has this form is that it should point the radar echo away from the hull.  The thing that I must say that CSS Virginia is far ahead its time because that structure is effective against the explosive ammunition, and the slanting armor of tanks like T-34 and Sherman have made them effective. But for some reason, the use of slanting armor has
