there is no specific information available about a quantum computer called "IBM Eagle." It's possible that this is a reference to a more recent development that occurred after my understanding or that it refers to a project or code name that hasn't been widely disclosed.

IBM is actively involved in quantum computing research and has made significant advancements with their IBM Quantum systems, such as the IBM Q System One and the IBM Quantum Experience. These systems use superconducting qubits as the building blocks of their quantum processors.

Superconducting qubits are tiny circuits made of superconducting materials that can exhibit quantum behavior. They are cooled to extremely low temperatures (close to absolute zero) to reduce environmental noise and enable quantum effects to dominate over classical effects.

In general, quantum computers operate by manipulating qubits to perform quantum computations. Qubits can represent the quantum states of 0, 1, or a superposition of both simultaneously. They can also be entangled, which allows for the creation of quantum correlations between qubits that enable certain computations to be performed more efficiently than classical computers.

Quantum computers typically employ techniques such as quantum gates, quantum algorithms, and error correction codes to process and manipulate qubits. These systems are highly complex and require careful engineering to address challenges such as noise, decoherence, and error rates associated with qubit operations.

It's important to note that the field of quantum computing is rapidly evolving, and new technologies, architectures, and devices may have been developed since I'm not interested in that topic as much as i used to and my answer might be a bit outdated. I recommend referring to the latest information from IBM or other reliable sources for specific details about the "IBM Eagle" quantum computer, if it is indeed a recently announced system.
