- What the research demonstrates
- Previously
The University of Chicago confirms Bluefors' second Chicago lab and a service model giving outside organizations access to cryogenic measurements. This establishes an operating infrastructure offering, complementing Bluefors' documented refrigerator product family.
- Now
The University of Chicago confirms Bluefors’ second Chicago lab and its cryogenic measurement access model. For purchased hardware, Bluefors’ LD450/LD450sl technical table specifies 450 µW of guaranteed cooling power at 100 mK at the experimental flange outside the mixing chamber. This is an infrastructure specification, not a processor benchmark.

- What remains uncertain
- Previously
Cooling power, wiring capacity and base temperature describe infrastructure. They do not establish the fidelity, useful qubit count or computational performance of a processor placed inside it.
- Now
The cooling figure applies to the named model, measurement location and temperature. Published cooldown time uses an empty system with standard experimental space and shields; wiring and active loads require a separate thermal budget. These specifications do not establish processor fidelity or computational performance.
