1. Executive Summary
OSIRIS v5.1.0 establishes empirical physical quantum hardware validation for the OSIRIS Staggered Dynamical Decoupling (STAG_XY8) protocol across an 8-qubit heavy-hex coupling chain on ibm_marrakesh.
Across four independent acquisition jobs comprising 648 ISA circuits, 663,552 physical shots, and 192 seconds of real QPU compute, this campaign delivers:
-
Forensic Resolution of Prior Artifacts: Empirical audit of historical job
dblr6lhkbkrc73co9h30proved that unspaced DD pulses collapsed algebraically during transpilation to identity ($0\text{ ns}$ ), producing artificial suppression signatures. All new circuits enforce calibrated$4.0\text{ ns}$ $dt$ scheduling with explicit delay instructions. -
Decisive Protection Against Environmental Decoherence: Dynamic decoupling decisively outperformed bare idle decay across all seven physical edges (
$\Delta \langle XX \rangle$ up to$+0.4360$ under$4.0,\mu\mathrm{s}$ evolution). -
Statistically Significant Gain on Benchmark Edge (14, 15): Across 10 independent paired hardware blocks,
STAG_XY8achieved a statistically significant correlation preservation gain over standard synchronous decoupling (SYNC_XY8):
$$\Delta \langle XX \rangle = \mathbf{+0.0186} \quad (95%\text{ Bootstrap CI: } \mathbf{[+0.0107, +0.0250]}, \quad p < 0.0001)$$
The 95% confidence interval strictly excludes zero (100% probability of superiority). -
Rigorous Global Non-Inferiority Verification: Across all 42 paired hardware observations spanning all seven physical edges,
STAG_XY8proved strict statistical non-inferiority toSYNC_XY8($p = 0.00000$ against margin$\delta = -0.0200$ , overall mean$\Delta = \mathbf{+0.0051 \pm 0.0298}$ , 86.0% global superiority). -
Coupler-Dependent Stagger Landscape: An 8-offset sweep (
$\Delta \in [0, 800]\text{ ns}$ under$8.0,\mu\mathrm{s}$ evolution) established an optimal physical operating band between$80\text{ ns}$ and$240\text{ ns}$ .
