Probing the universality of topological defect formation in a quantum annealer: Kibble-Zurek mechanism and beyond

The number of topological defects created in a system driven through a quantum phase transition exhibits a power-law scaling with the driving time. This universal scaling law is the key prediction of the Kibble-Zurek mechanism (KZM), and testing it using a hardware-based quantum simulator is a covet...
