Physicists are using quantum processors to create non-abelian anyons, elusive particles that could serve as the foundation for topological quantum computing. These particles have shared memory that can be manipulated by braiding, making them ideal qubits. Quantum processors are also being used to simulate and correct errors in shoddy qubits, extending the lifespan of anyons. Theorists are also working on creating a more complicated phase of quantum matter where true non-abelian anyons arise natively in a pristine phase of matter.
