Physical intuition

Useful processors require both physical control and architectural error suppression.

Deep dive: physical mechanism

Logical encoding, syndrome extraction, connectivity and correlated noise determine scalability.

What is measured experimentally?

Repeated error-detection cycles quantify logical performance.

Assumptions, noise and limitations

A threshold is architecture- and noise-model-dependent, not a universal number.

Research and simulation exercise

Compare logical failure scaling for several hypothetical physical error rates.
