Complex quantum systems usually lose their initial patterns quickly due to interactions, but this team created an approach using an algorithm called ScarFinder to search for stable activity in these environments. Their work, published in Nature Physics, successfully identified regular motion in a quantum processor with multiple interacting components.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>The researchers tested their method on a 24-qubit system selected from a larger superconducting processor containing over 100 qubits. They used a hybrid loop where the quantum processor evolved briefly while an ordinary computer analyzed measurements to find simple states matching the results. This updated state was then applied to the processor, repeating the cycle until it home in on motion that occurs regularly without needing prior specification of that motion.<\/p>\n<p>Senior author Zlatko Papi\u0107 explained that this process allows the system to move from irregular patterns toward repeating ones. The team found &quot;islands&quot; of regular motion coexisting with a sea of chaotic behavior, a structure common in classical systems like the solar system but previously unobserved in quantum many-body systems. This discovery suggests quantum processors can serve as instruments for scientific discovery rather than just tools for calculation.<\/p>\n<div style=\"margin-top:2em; padding:1em; border-left:4px solid #0073aa; background:#f5f7fa;\">\n<p style=\"margin:0;\"><strong>Source:<\/strong> Phys.org &bull; October 5, 2026<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin:0.5em 0 0;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/phys.org\/news\/2026-09-scientists-uncover-recurrent-patterns-chaotic.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read the original article at Phys.org &rarr;<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>AI-rewritten: This is a summary of an article from Phys.org, rewritten by AI (Qwen, running locally) to make it easier to read.
