└───────────┘Expanded Circuit:
The Mølmer–Sørensen gate is native to ion-trap systems. The global MS can be applied to multiple ions to entangle multiple qubits simultaneously [1].
In the two-qubit case, this is equivalent to an XX(theta) interaction, and is thus reduced to the RXXGate. The global MS gate is a sum of XX interactions on all pairs [2].

Parameters
- num_qubits (
int) – width of gate. - theta (
Union[List[List[float]],ndarray]) – a num_qubits x num_qubits symmetric matrix of interaction angles for each qubit pair. The upper triangle is considered.
Attributes
ancillas
Returns a list of ancilla bits in the order that the registers were added.

metadata
The user provided metadata associated with the circuit
The metadata for the circuit is a user provided dict of metadata for the circuit. It will not be used to influence the execution or operation of the circuit, but it is expected to be passed between all transforms of the circuit (ie transpilation) and that providers will associate any circuit metadata with the results it returns from execution of that circuit.
