IBM Q quantum computer cryostat, used to cool the IBM Q system's quantum chip to 15 milliKelvin. The IBM Q Network explores practical applications of quantum computing for business and science, offering organizations access via the IBM Cloud to the most advanced and scalable universal quantum computing systems available. Quantum computers are based on quantum mechanics and the principle of representing information using quantum properties, storing and manipulating data in units known as qubits, the basic unit of quantum information. This has the potential to massively increase computing power. Photographed at IBM-Zurich, Switzerland. Image published in September 2017.
