Google's quantum computer creates exotic state once thought impossible

Physicists have achieved a breakthrough by using a 58-qubit quantum computer to create and observe a long-theorized but never-before-seen quantum phase of matter: a Floquet topologically ordered state. By harnessing rhythmic driving in these quantum systems, the team imaged particle edge motions and watched exotic particles transform in real time.
