At the IBM Quantum Summit 2023, the US processor company presented a new quantum processor called "Heron" and a computer based on it, the IBM Quantum System Two.
IBM called its new Heron processor "the highest performing quantum processor to date." Heron has 133 qubits but produces 5 times fewer errors during computational processes than, for example, the last generation processor from IBM - Eagle.
The new device - IBM Quantum System Two - is the world's first modular quantum computer. This computer operates based on three Heron chips and a cryogenic infra-structure that controls the qubits.
Despite the innovations, this computer can be considered quite "flexible": in the future, the system can be supplemented with updated processors and other components to improve performance.
It is worth considering that quantum processors are used in the fields of physics, chemistry, energy, and medicine.
