QSCOUT is the Quantum Scientific Computing Open User Testbed, a trapped-ion quantum computer testbed realized at Sandia National Laboratories on behalf of the Department of Energy's Office of Science and its Advanced Scientific Computing (ASCR) program. Jaqal, for Just Another Quantum Assembly Language, is the programming language used to specify programs executed on QSCOUT. This document contains a specification of Jaqal along with a summary of QSCOUT 1.0 capabilities, example Jaqal programs, and plans for possible future extensions. To learn more about QSCOUT and the Jaqal language developed for it, please visit qscout.sandia.gov or send an e-mail to qscout@sandia.gov.
