  We factorize a 48-bit integer using 10 trapped-ion qubits on a Quantinuum's
quantum computer. This result outperforms the recent achievement by B. Yan et
al., arXiv:2212.12372 (2022), increasing the success probability by a factor of
6 with a non-hybrid digitized-counterdiabatic quantum factorization (DCQF)
algorithm. We expect better results with hybrid DCQF methods on our path to
factoring RSA-64, RSA-128, and RSA-2048 in this NISQ era, where the latter case
may need digital-analog quantum computing (DAQC) encoding.
