CLIQUE Facility Uses Electron Accelerator to Simulate Cosmic Ray Errors in Superconducting Qubits

Johns Hopkins APL's CLIQUE facility couples an electron linac to a dilution refrigerator, delivering 18.5 MeV electrons to replicate cosmic-ray muon impacts on transmon qubits with sub-10μs precision—reducing radiation-induced error rates by 10x.
