Rows are blank if no champion has been found which surpasses a smaller size problem. Take also note that the <math> f_{x}(n) </math> used in the lower bounds represent the [[Fast-Growing Hierarchy]]. Note that most champions above 6 states are self-reported and have not been independently verified.

Busy Beaver Champions are the current record holding Turing machines which maximize a Busy Beaver function. In this article we focus specifically on the longest running TMs. Some have been proven to be the longest running of all (and so are the ultimate champion) while others are only current champions and may be usurped in the future. For smaller domains, Pascal Michel's website is the canonical source for Busy Beaver champions and the History of Previous Champions.

2-Symbol TMs

Rows are blank if no champion has been found which surpasses a smaller size problem. Also take note that the used in the lower bounds represent the Fast-Growing Hierarchy. Note that most champions above 6 states are self-reported and have not been independently verified.
