IBM Quantum said Nighthawk r2 executes over 100,000 circuits per second
IBM Quantum released Nighthawk r2 on 31 August, a superconducting processor claiming over 100,000 circuits per second—roughly 25 times faster than its Heron generation. The processor combines 120 programmable qubits with 218 couplers and 120 reset elements, using active dissipative reset to reduce idle time between runs.
