 Backends Available Through pytket-qiskit
 ========================================
+See `this page <https://tket.quantinuum.com/extensions/pytket-qiskit/api.html#available-ibm-backends>`.
 
-The ``pytket-qiskit`` extension has several types of available :py:class:`Backend`. These are the :py:class:`IBMQBackend`
-and several types of simulator.

-* [1] :py:class:`AerBackend` is noiseless by default and has no architecture. However it can accept a user defined :py:class:`NoiseModel` and :py:class:`Architecture`.
-* In addition to the backends above the ``pytket-qiskit`` extension also has the :py:class:`TketBackend`. This allows a tket :py:class:`Backend` to be used directly through qiskit. see the `notebook example <https://github.com/CQCL/pytket/blob/main/examples/qiskit_integration.ipynb>`_ on qiskit integration.
