We describe and benchmark a new quantum charge-coupled device (QCCD) trapped-ion quantum computer based on a linear trap with periodic boundary conditions, which resembles a race track. The new system successfully incorporates several technologies crucial to future scalability, including electrode broadcasting, multi-layer RF routing, and magneto-optical trap (MOT) loading, while maintaining, and in some cases exceeding, the gate fidelities of previous QCCD systems. The system is initially operated with 32 qubits, but future upgrades will allow for more. We benchmark the performance of primitive operations, including an average state preparation and measurement error of 1.6(1)$\times 10^{-3}$, an average single-qubit gate infidelity of $2.5(3)\times 10^{-5}$, and an average two-qubit gate infidelity of $1.84(5)\times 10^{-3}$. The system-level performance of the quantum processor is assessed with mirror benchmarking, linear cross-entropy benchmarking, a quantum volume measurement of $\mathrm{QV}=2^{16}$, and the creation of 32-qubit entanglement in a GHZ state. We also tested application benchmarks including Hamiltonian simulation, QAOA, error correction on a repetition code, and dynamics simulations using qubit reuse. We also discuss future upgrades to the new system aimed at adding more qubits and capabilities.

    quant-ph 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    A differentiable tensor-network framework learns CPTP noise channels from single-circuit measurement data on IBM hardware and generalizes the model to unrelated circuits.

  4. Local robust shadows on a trapped ion computer -- a case study

    quant-ph 2026-03 unverdicted novelty 5.0

    Local robust shadows with calibration stages and Pauli-X-twirling mitigate errors from shortened measurement pulses on trapped-ion hardware for Haar random and QAOA states.

  5. The Necessity of Setting Temperature in LLM-as-a-Judge

    cs.CL 2026-03 unverdicted novelty 4.0

    Higher temperature reduces LLM-judge consistency and raises formatting errors but can surface uncertainty and aid exploration in ambiguous evaluation settings.
