Using qubits to search for dark matter
Wright Lab assistant professor David Moore, along with three colleagues from other institutions, recently proposed a novel idea of using trapped electrons and ions—technologies that are being developed as qubits for quantum computation—as ultra-sensitive particle detectors that may be able to enhance the search for the nature of dark matter, neutrinos, new forces, and more.
