The passage around this formula

Putting numbers to the swing keeps it honest rather than decorative. Take $\omega$/2$\pi$ = 5\ $\mathrm{GHz}$ and g/2$\pi$ = 10\ $\mathrm{MHz}$ , both squarely inside the range of qubit and resonator frequencies and coupling strengths reported across circuit quantum electrodynamics architectures, which span a few gigahertz in frequency and from a fraction of a megahertz up to several hundred megahertz in coupling depending on the regime [ 12 ] . The swap time is $t^\ast$ = $\pi$/(2g) = 1/(4$\times$10\ $\mathrm{MHz}$) = 25.0\ $\mathrm{ns}$ , and the ledger’s swing at that instant is $\hbar$$\omega$/2 $\approx$ 1.66$\times$10^{-24}\ $\mathrm{J}$ $\approx$ 10.3\ $\mu$$\mathrm{eV}$ — an exact analytic evaluation under the stated…
