# qiskit.visualization.plot_state_qsphere¶

plot_state_qsphere(state, figsize=None, ax=None, show_state_labels=True, show_state_phases=False, use_degrees=False, *, rho=None)[Quellcode]

Plot the qsphere representation of a quantum state. Here, the size of the points is proportional to the probability of the corresponding term in the state and the color represents the phase.

Parameter
• state (Statevector or DensityMatrix or ndarray) – an N-qubit quantum state.

• figsize (tuple) – Figure size in inches.

• ax (matplotlib.axes.Axes) – An optional Axes object to be used for the visualization output. If none is specified a new matplotlib Figure will be created and used. Additionally, if specified there will be no returned Figure since it is redundant.

• show_state_labels (bool) – An optional boolean indicating whether to show labels for each basis state.

• show_state_phases (bool) – An optional boolean indicating whether to show the phase for each basis state.

• use_degrees (bool) – An optional boolean indicating whether to use radians or degrees for the phase values in the plot.
