Photon shell game in three-resonator circuit quantum electrodynamics

The ability to coherently switch a state between two systems is a key requirement for quantum information processing. Such control is now demonstrated by shifting the quantum state of a microwave photon between any one of three superconducting-circuit resonators: in analogy to the classic three cups and a ball game.
