Scientists have discovered the cause of a persistent problem that continues to disrupt superconducting quantum computers, even when they have integrated defences. Despite all their advanced hardware, superconducting quantum computers are vulnerable to errors caused by ionizing radiation from space or the environment. Radiation particles interfere with the substrate [...]
