IBM Heron is a 133-qubit tunable-coupler quantum processor created by IBM, unveiled during the IBM Quantum Summit 2023, which occurred on December 4, 2023, and is the highest performance quantum processor IBM has ever built.[1][2]
It is currently in use on the IBM Quantum System Two, unveiled during the same event.[1]
IBM claims that this processor eliminates crosstalk errors that emerged in their previous quantum processors, and that this processor is being made available for users via the cloud.[1][2]
It is reportedly 5 times faster than their previous best record set by the IBM Eagle.[1][2]
