Scientists Achieve Major Breakthrough in Quantum Error Correction

Decoherence is a fundamental phenomenon through which classical behavior emerges from the quantum laws of nature. It is the main obstacle when scientists harness these laws for information processing. In practical terms for quantum computing, decoherence is caused by external factors such as stray radiation that can cause a quantum computer's qubits to change their quantum states and lose their stored information. Quantum error correction (QEC) repairs the effects of decoherence on quantum information.
