In the April 10 2020 issue of the Journal Science the best evidence yet for
the existence of a quasiparticle called a "Anyon" is presented. Anyon's are
important because when 2 Anyon's loop around each other their quantum state
is altered and so that brading can be used to encode information. Such
brading would be far less susceptible to quantum decoherence than
other ways of encoding information, and decoherence is the only reason we
don't have practical and scalable Quantum Computers right now.
