Accelerating Surface Radiation Content to Investigate the Impact of Radon Progeny on Superconducting Qubits

Sagar S. Poudel, Dylan J. Temples, Ryan Linehan +8

Ionizing radiation in the form of $\hat{I}\pm$, ${\hat{I}}^2$, ${\hat{I}}^3$, and additional high-energy particles can induce decoherence via phonon and quasiparticle poisoning in superconducting qubits. Re…
