Hi Xanadu Team,
I’m requesting X8 access to validate quantitative scaling laws I discovered for Gaussian Boson Sampling systems.
Following your recommended approach, I completed simulation first: 13,608 realistic GBS simulations with noise models (detector inefficiency, optical loss, circuit depth). This work discovered three scaling laws with exceptional stability (S > 0.99) revealing universal features including detector efficiency power law η^17.3 and cumulative loss scaling (1-L)^10.5D. I’ve submitted this methodology to Physical Review Letters and made all code/data open-source (Zenodo DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.18294125).
X8 is perfectly suited for my validation needs because my research specifically studies GBS (not attempting non-GBS tasks on GBS hardware). I need systematic parameter sweeps, varying photon number, and measuring fidelity to test discovered coefficient predictions against real hardware.
This validation would:
- Demonstrate X8 as precision instrument for fundamental GBS measurements
- Verify ML-discovered physics laws on actual quantum hardware
- Enable strong follow-up publication highlighting X8 capabilities
I have clear experimental protocols ready and can estimate required shot counts. Happy to discuss technical details.
Would X8 access be possible for this validation work?
Best regards,
