Physicists Propose a 'Supercurrent' To Read Qubits Without Destroying Their Quantum State


The qubits at the center of quantum computing systems are the equivalent of the binary bits that classical computing processors use – but while classical bits can only be 1 or 0, qubits can be 1, 0, or a blend of both (superposition), a flexibility that promises to transform the power of our computers.
