Actually "non-stabilizerness" does describe it better than "magic". > In quantum information theory, magic is a property that quantifies the computational resources needed to describe quantum states beyond stabilizer states. > In 2024–2025, quantum magic was detected in top quark pairs produced at the Large Hadron Collider; it is the first observation of this property in fundamental particle collisions. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magic_(quantum_information) And "second stabilizer Rényi entropy" is even better, it's exactly the kind of technical term I'd prefer, that describes what it means. > One measure of quantum magic is the stabilizer Rényi entropy of order α such that.. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/R%C3%A9nyi_entropy#Stabilizer_... | ||
