Emulating Anyonic Fractional Statistical Behavior in a Superconducting Quantum Circuit

Emulating Anyonic Fractional Statistical Behavior in a Superconducting Quantum Circuit

Anyons are exotic quasiparticles obeying fractional statistics, whose behavior can be emulated in artificially designed spin systems. Here we present an experimental emulation of creating anyonic excitations in a superconducting circuit that consists of four qubits, achieved by dynamically generating the ground and excited states of the toric code model, …
