IBMHello

 Am running IBM's Hello World code for the newer version of qiskit,

1.0.2. This is code for a two-bit system run on the qiskiet aer simulator.

Certainly! In quantum computing, Pauli operators are matrices that represent quantum observables. They are used to measure the state of qubits, which are the basic units of quantum information. Here’s a brief explanation of each Pauli operator you’ve mentioned:

  • IZ and ZI: These operators measure the Z-basis of one qubit while leaving the other qubit unchanged. The Z-basis corresponds to the states |0⟩ and |1⟩.

  • ZZ: This operator measures the correlation between two qubits in the Z-basis. It can tell us if the qubits are in the same state or in opposite states.

  • XX and XI: These operators measure the X-basis of one or both qubits. The X-basis consists of the superposition states |+⟩ and |-⟩, which are equal superpositions of |0⟩ and |1⟩ with different phases.

  • IX: Similar to IZ and ZI, this operator measures the X-basis of one qubit and leaves the other qubit unaffected.

The code snippet you’re running likely uses these operators to set up different measurements for a quantum experiment. Each operator provides different information about the quantum state of the system. If you have any more questions or need further clarification, feel free to ask!*     *
