Very frustrating.
What does this even mean???
It was simulated on the quantum "device". Source: it pretty much says so in the article description. The atom singular mentioned here would be the quantum memory.
A very clickbaity and misleading choice of headline, which is unbecoming of an actual university.
It sounds like it was an analogue simulation as opposed to a digital one, then, but they don't want to use the s-word. It definitely didn't involve an actual rhodopsin molecule frozen in slow-mo or whatever.
Tried to access the journal article but it's pay walled. The abstract doesn't explain much.

Great thanks!
Here's a short video explaining it.
