Active Qubit Reset (2D Bloch Disk): Measurement Feedback vs. Passive Decay

A 2D Bloch-disk view of racing two ways to reset a superconducting qubit to |0>: waiting out slow T1 relaxation, or an active measurement-feedback loop that fires a conditional pi-pulse. Tune T1, readout fidelity and pulse error on a flat, pannable/zoomable canvas.

Getting a qubit back to |0⟩ between circuits is a real engineering bottleneck: wait for T1 relaxation and you burn tens of microseconds of dead time, or close a quantum-classical control loop — measure the qubit dispersively, let classical logic decide, and fire a conditional π-pulse if it read out excited. This simulator renders a single qubit as a 2D Bloch-disk vector coupled to a readout resonator ring and lets you race the two strategies side by side: toggle between passive and active reset, tune the natural relaxation time T₁, the readout fidelity of the measurement, and the residual error rate of the correction pulse, then watch live population, elapsed time and feedback-round counters as the quantum-classical loop iterates until it confirms the ground state twice in a row. Drag to pan and scroll to zoom the diagram.

Race two ways to reset a superconducting qubit to |0>, drawn as a flat 2D Bloch-disk vector: waiting out slow T1 relaxation, or an active feedback loop that measures the qubit via its readout resonator and fires a conditional pi-pulse. Tune T1, readout fidelity and pulse error, then drag and scroll to inspect the vector and resonator ring up close.
