    abstract = {Quantum systems are predicted to be better at information processing than their classical counterparts, and quantum entanglement is key to this superior performance. But how does one gauge the degree of entanglement in a system? Brydges et al. monitored the build-up of the so-called Rényi entropy in a chain of up to 10 trapped calcium ions, each of which encoded a qubit. As the system evolved, interactions caused entanglement between the chain and the rest of the system to grow, which was reflected in the growth of the Rényi entropy. Science, this issue p. 260 The buildup of entropy in an ion chain reflects a growing entanglement between the chain and its complement. Entanglement is a key feature of many-body quantum systems. Measuring the entropy of different partitions of a quantum system provides a way to probe its entanglement structure. Here, we present and experimentally demonstrate a protocol for measuring the second-order Rényi entropy based on statistical correlations between randomized measurements. Our experiments, carried out with a trapped-ion quantum simulator with partition sizes of up to 10 qubits, prove the overall coherent character of the system dynamics and reveal the growth of entanglement between its parts, in both the absence and presence of disorder. Our protocol represents a universal tool for probing and characterizing engineered quantum systems in the laboratory, which is applicable to arbitrary quantum states of up to several tens of qubits.}}

                  is essential for developing quantum technologies. We present an
                  efficient method for constructing an approximate classical
                  description of a quantum state using very few measurements of the
                  state. This description, called a `classical shadow', can be used
                  to predict many different properties; order
                  $$\{\textbackslashmathrm\{log\}\}\textbackslash,(M)$$measurements
                  suffice to accurately predict M different functions of the state
                  with high success probability. The number of measurements is
                  independent of the system size and saturates
                  information-theoretic lower bounds. Moreover, target properties
                  to predict can be selected after the measurements are completed.
                  We support our theoretical findings with extensive numerical
                  experiments. We apply classical shadows to predict quantum
                  fidelities, entanglement entropies, two-point correlation
                  functions, expectation values of local observables and the energy
                  variance of many-body local Hamiltonians. The numerical results
                  highlight the advantages of classical shadows relative to
                  previously known methods.",

                  unprecedented opportunities for exploring and exploiting the
                  properties of highly entangled complex quantum systems. The
                  complexity of large quantum systems is the source of
                  computational power but also makes them difficult to control
                  precisely or characterize accurately using measured classical
                  data. We review protocols for probing the properties of complex
                  many-qubit systems using measurement schemes that are practical
                  using today's quantum platforms. In these protocols, a quantum
                  state is repeatedly prepared and measured in a randomly chosen
                  basis; then a classical computer processes the measurement
                  outcomes to estimate the desired property. The randomization of
                  the measurement procedure has distinct advantages. For example, a
                  single data set can be used multiple times to pursue a variety of
                  applications, and imperfections in the measurements are mapped to
                  a simplified noise model that can more easily be mitigated. We
                  discuss a range of cases that have already been realized in
                  quantum devices, including Hamiltonian simulation tasks, probes
                  of quantum chaos, measurements of non-local order parameters, and
                  comparison of quantum states produced in distantly separated
                  laboratories. By providing a workable method for translating a
                  complex quantum state into a succinct classical representation
                  that preserves a rich variety of relevant physical properties,
                  the randomized measurement toolbox strengthens our ability to
                  grasp and control the quantum world.",
