Ventrifossa

description: Genus Ventrifossa Gilbert and Hubbs, 1920
DISTINGUISHING FEATURES.— BR 7. Head and body relatively compressed; gill membranes narrowly united over isthmus and under midorbit; snout blunt to pointed and moderately protruding beyond mouth; tubercular scale lacking on snout tip except in V. misakia; no thickened modified scales on suborbital region; head uniformly and fully scaled except gular and BR membranes; upper jaws generally more than 40% HL (35–42% in V. misakia), beset with long band of small teeth, outer series slightly enlarged; teeth on lower jaw all small, in one or two series to long narrow band; chin barbel usually well developed. Second spinous 1D ray smooth or finely serrated; V 8–10; no fin with greatly prolonged rays. Inner series GR-I 14–20 total. Periproct oval to teardrop shaped, connected anteriorly to small dermal window of light organ lying between V bases; anus much closer to V bases than to A origin. Pyloric caeca more than 30. Color often silvery along sides; lips usually black; leading edge of snout, suborbital shelf, dorsal snout ridges, gill and gular membranes usually black or blackish. (Adapted from Iwamoto and Graham, 2001:496.)
REMARKS.— There are more than 25 species in this genus; nine are here recorded from Taiwan. There are likely to be other species still undiscovered, especially in Indonesia and the Indian Ocean. Because of the often fragile nature of their integument and bones, smaller individuals of the genus are often severely damaged in capture. Features distinguishing species of Ventrifossa are often subtle, requiring relatively intact specimens, which add to the difficulties in their identification.

description: We exemplify the impact of beyond Lee-Huang-Yang (LHY) physics, especially due to intercomponent correlations, in the ground state and the quench dynamics of one-dimensional so-called quantum droplets using an ab-initio nonperturbative approach. It is found that the droplet Gaussian-shaped configuration arising for intercomponent attractive couplings becomes narrower for stronger intracomponent repulsion and transits towards a flat-top structure either for larger particle numbers or weaker intercomponent attraction. Additionally, a harmonic trap prevents the flat-top formation. At the balance point where mean-field interactions cancel out, we show that a correlation hole is present in the few particle limit of these fluids as well as for flat-top droplets. Introducing mass-imbalance, droplets experience intercomponent mixing and excitation signatures are identified for larger masses. Monitoring the droplet expansion (breathing motion) upon considering interaction quenches to stronger (weaker) attractions we explicate that beyond LHY correlations result in a reduced velocity (breathing frequency). Strikingly, the droplets feature two-body anti-correlations (correlations) at the same position (longer distances). Our findings pave the way for probing correlation-induced phenomena of droplet dynamics in current ultracold atom experiments.

description: We consider the problem of secret key agreement in Gaussian Maurer's Model. In Gaussian Maurer's model, legitimate receivers, Alice and Bob, and a wire-tapper, Eve, receive signals randomly generated by a satellite through three independent memoryless Gaussian channels respectively. Then Alice and Bob generate a common secret key from their received signals. In this model, we propose a protocol for generating a common secret key by using the result of soft-decision of Alice and Bob's received signals. Then, we calculate a lower bound on the secret key rate in our proposed protocol. As a result of comparison with the protocol that only uses hard-decision, we found that the higher rate is obtained by using our protocol.

A un passo diverso: geografia politica e cartografia di fronte ai poteri statuali

description: Going at a different pace: Political Geography and Cartography before the authority of the State
The relationship between geography and cartography has waited a long time to be clarified. The absence of serious reflection on the subject has perpetuated antiquated stereotypes and widened the divide between those for whom this relationship already seems tired and those who potentially consider it ever more fruitful. The former warn of an increasingly sharp and professional distinction between those who produce geographical knowledge and those who create maps, while the latter, on the other
hand, confidently assess this relationship in the context of new forms of convergence between visuality and geography. Without wishing to propose a systematic and historic reconnaissance of the ‘geography-cartography-authority’ triangle, which would require a great deal of space, this article intends to supply an ‘ordered’ contribution to a historical event that still bears unexplored passages. To that purpose, we will ask whether and how the expressive forms of cartography, in their political senses, are connected to the evolution of the discipline of political geography.

À un rythme différent: géographie politique et cartographie face à l’autorité de l’État
Le rapport entre géographie et cartographie attend depuis longtemps d’être éclairci. L’absence d’une réflexion sérieuse sur le sujet a laissé perdurer de vieux stéréotypes et a accentué l’écart entre ceux pour qui ce rapport semble désormais dépassé et ceux pour qui il est potentiellement de plus en plus fructueux. Les premiers voient une distinction professionnelle toujours plus nette entre ceux qui produisent la connaissance géographique et ceux qui réalisent les cartes, tandis que les seconds, au contraire, envisagent avec optimisme ce rapport dans l’optique des nouvelles formes de convergence entre visualité et géographie. Sans vouloir proposer un aperçu historique systématique
du triangle géographie-cartographie-autorité, ce qui nécessiterait beaucoup
plus d’espace, cet article entend contribuer à une «mise en ordre» d’une question historique qui présente des passages encore inexplorés. Dans ce but, on se demandera si et comment les formes expressives de la cartographie, dans leurs significations politiques, ont suivi l’évolution disciplinaire de la géographie politique.

description: A new kind of accelerating flat model with no dark energy that is fully dominated by cold dark matter (CDM) is investigated. The number of CDM particles is not conserved and the present accelerating stage is a consequence of the negative pressure describing the irreversible process of gravitational particle creation. A related work involving accelerating CDM cosmology has been discussed before the SNe observations [Lima, Abramo & Germano, Phys. Rev. D53, 4287 (1996)]. However, in order to have a transition from a decelerating to an accelerating regime at low redshifts, the matter creation rate proposed here includes a constant term of the order of the Hubble parameter. In this case, $H_0$ does not need to be small in order to solve the age problem and the transition happens even if the matter creation is negligible during the radiation and part of the matter dominated phase. Therefore, instead of the vacuum dominance at redshifts of the order of a few, the present accelerating stage in this sort of Einstein-de Sitter CDM cosmology is a consequence of the gravitational particle creation process. As an extra bonus, in the present scenario does not exist the coincidence problem that plagues models with dominance of dark energy. The model is able to harmonize a CDM picture with the present age of the universe, the latest measurements of the Hubble parameter and the Supernovae observations.

description: Knowledge tracing consists in predicting the performance of some students on new questions given their performance on previous questions, and can be a prior step to optimizing assessment and learning. Deep knowledge tracing (DKT) is a competitive model for knowledge tracing relying on recurrent neural networks, even if some simpler models may match its performance. However, little is known about why DKT works so well. In this paper, we frame deep knowledge tracing as a encoderdecoder architecture. This viewpoint not only allows us to propose better models in terms of performance, simplicity or expressivity but also opens up promising avenues for future research directions. In particular, we show on several small and large datasets that a simpler decoder, with possibly fewer parameters than the one used by DKT, can predict student performance better.

description: This paper presents the principles of ontology-supported and ontology-driven conceptual navigation. Conceptual navigation realizes the independence between resources and links to facilitate interoperability and reusability. An engine builds dynamic links, assembles resources under an argumentative scheme and allows optimization with a possible constraint, such as the user's available time. Among several strategies, two are discussed in detail with examples of applications. On the one hand, conceptual specifications for linking and assembling are embedded in the resource meta-description with the support of the ontology of the domain to facilitate meta-communication. Resources are like agents looking for conceptual acquaintances with intention. On the other hand, the domain ontology and an argumentative ontology drive the linking and assembling strategies.

Finnegans wake as a deconstructive text
Creators: name: Roughley, Alan Robert
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: This dissertation considers Finnegans Wake as a deconstructive writing that exemplifies many of the textual operations that the French critical theorist Jacques Derrida attempts to define through his use of such "undecidable" terms and "non-concepts" as "difference," "dissemination," "trace," and "grafting." It argues that the Wake operates much like the "bifurcated writing" and "grouped textual field" that Derrida identifies as the only possible site for a deconstructive engagement of the terms and concepts of the Western metaphysical tradition, the tradition that Derrida terms phallogocentrism. The Wake has been an important text in the critical formulations of many contemporary theorists, and, as Derrida has recently acknowledged, his own theories of dissemination and deconstruction have been considerably affected by the Wake during the twenty-five to thirty years that he has been learning to read it. In drawing on Derrida's theories to analyze the Wake, this dissertation utilizes Derrida's terms to "re-mark" in Joyce's text, the disseminative textual operations that Derrida has marked as operative in the texts of the history of philosophy and in "so-called literary" texts like Finnegan’s Wake. In a certain sense, it renders unto Joyce's text that which has always already belonged to it. Drawing on Derrida's investigation of speech and writing, the dissertation considers the Wake's identification of itself as a fusion of speech and writing that requires a "speechreading" on the part of its readers. It supports this consideration by employing Umberto Eco's semiotic methodology to trace the network of metonymic lexemes by which the Wake identifies itself as a writing for the ear as well as the eye. Next it analyzes the Wake's tenth chapter as a chapter that exploits the formula 1+2+3+4=10 and produces a writing that operates as an arithmetical textual machine which problematizes the traditional concepts of presence and being and which also works towards dislodging the phallogocentric organization of writing with such hierarchically organized binary terms as male/female and central/marginal. In order to illustrate how the Wake disseminatively disrupts the binary terms by which phallogocentrism dominates thought, speech, and writing, the dissertation also considers how Joyce's text functions in an Intertextual relationship with some of the writings of Blake and Shakespeare. It does this by analyzing how the Wake dismantles some of the philosophical paradigms operating in the Blake and Shakespeare texts and takes important signifiers from those texts in order to set them to work as signifiers of signifieds that are radically different from those in the texts of Blake and Shakespeare.

description: Anomaly detection in medical imaging is to distinguish the relevant biomarkers of diseases from those of normal tissues. Deep supervised learning methods have shown potentials in various detection tasks, but its performances would be limited in medical imaging fields where collecting annotated anomaly data is limited and labor-intensive. Therefore, unsupervised anomaly detection can be an effective tool for clinical practices, which uses only unlabeled normal images as training data. In this paper, we developed an unsupervised learning framework for pixel-wise anomaly detection in multi-contrast magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). The framework has two steps of feature generation and density estimation with Gaussian mixture model (GMM). A feature is derived through the learning of contrast-to-contrast translation that effectively captures the normal tissue characteristics in multi-contrast MRI. The feature is collaboratively used with another feature that is the low-dimensional representation of multi-contrast images. In density estimation using GMM, a simple but efficient way is introduced to handle the singularity problem which interrupts the joint learning process. The proposed method outperforms previous anomaly detection approaches. Quantitative and qualitative analyses demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method in anomaly detection for multi-contrast MRI.

description: We calculate a two-pion wave function for the I=2 $S$-wave two-pion system with a finite scattering momentum and estimate the interaction range between two pions, which allows us to examine the validity of a necessary condition for the finite size formula presented by Rummukainen and Gottlieb. We work in the quenched approximation employing the plaquette gauge action for gluons and the improved Wilson action for quarks at $1/a=1.63 {\rm GeV}$ on $32^3\times 120$ lattice. The quark masses are chosen to give $m_π= 0.420$, 0.488 and $0.587 {\rm GeV}$. We find that the energy dependence of the interaction range is small and the necessary condition is satisfied for our range of the quark mass and the scattering momentum, $k \le 0.16 {\rm GeV}$. We also find that the scattering phase shift can be obtained with a smaller statistical error from the two-pion wave function than from the two-pion time correlator.

description: Measurable spectra are theoretically very often derived from complicated many-body Green's functions. In this way, one calculates much more information than actually needed. Here we present an in principle exact approach to construct effective potentials and kernels for the direct calculation of electronic spectra. In particular, the potential that yields the spectral function needed to describe photoemission turns out to be dynamical but {\it local} and {\it real}. As example we illustrate this ``photoemission potential'' for sodium and aluminium, modelled as homogeneous electron gas, and discuss in particular its frequency dependence stemming from the nonlocality of the corresponding self-energy. We also show that our approach leads to a very short derivation of a kernel that is known to well describe absorption and energy-loss spectra of a wide range of materials.

description: Background: Meeting daily guidelines for physical activity, screen time, and sleep duration is associated with a host of health indicators for youth. In this cross-sectional observational study, we investigated the associations between adherence to the movement guidelines and health-related outcomes among youth with autism spectrum disorder (ASD).
Methods: Parents of youth with ASD (10–17 years) from seven countries and regions were invited to provide online proxy-reports for child’s movement behaviors (i.e., physical activity, sleep and screen time), and health-related outcomes (i.e., body mass index [BMI], general health, and quality of life). A series of multiple linear regression analyses were used to examine the associations between meeting movement guidelines and health-related outcomes, adjusted for covariates.
Results: The fnal sample consisted of 1165 youth with ASD. Compared with youth meeting all three guidelines, a higher BMI z-score was observed in those who met no guidelines (B=0.62, P=0.04), “sedentary time only” (B=0.60, P=0.047), and “physical activity plus sleep only” (B=0.85, P=0.04). Compared with meeting all three guidelines, meeting no guidelines was associated with poorer general health (B=−0.46, P=0.02). Further, compared with youth meeting all three guidelines, a lower quality of life score was observed in those who met no guidelines (B=−0.47, P=0.02) and “physical activity only” (B=−0.62, P=0.03). Lastly, there were dose–response associations between the number of guidelines met and all three health-related outcomes (all Ptrend<0.05). 
Conclusions: In conclusion, meeting more 24-h movement guidelines was generally associated with more favorable health-related outcomes in youth with ASD. The low level of adherence to all three guidelines (2.0%) suggests the urgent need to promote the adoption of all the guidelines in this group.

description: With recent measurements of the two neutrino double beta decay high precision electron spectra, combining with charge exchange or $β$-decay experimental data, we give severe constraints over the current nuclear many body calculations. Our calculation shows that QRPA approach can well reproduce the measured spectra for the two open shell nuclei, $^{82}$Se and $^{100}$Mo. For the closed shell nucleus $^{136}$Xe, QRPA can also reproduce the spectra with proper treatments. We also find that considering the high-lying state reduction, Nuclear Shell Model can also well reproduce the spectra as well as B(GT) strength under a unique quenched $g_A$. For $^{136}$Xe, we find that the flip of the sign for the decay strength will lead the spectra to go beyond HSD. These results call for future high precision measurement of charge-exchange reaction.

Factors influencing the biodistribution of liposomal systems
Creators: name: Sommerman, Eric Frank
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: Liposomes have important potential as drug delivery vehicles. However, in order to realize this potential, much basic research is required to elucidate the interactions experienced by liposomes in vivo. In this thesis two aspects of these interactions are investigated: the influence of vesicle size and lipid composition on the biodistribution observed in vivo; and the interaction of liposomes with plasma proteins. In order to determine the in vivo behavior of liposomal systems, a new vesicle marker is synthesized (¹²⁵I-tyraminyl-inulin, ¹²⁵ITI) and tested in vivo. It is shown that this probe satisfies the necessary criteria for an accurate marker of liposome behavior, and is superior to probes used by other workers in terms of accuracy, convenience, high specific activity, low tissue quenching and cost. The use of ¹²⁵ITI as a vesicle marker allows accurate measurements to be made with lower doses of liposomes than previously employed. The influence of vesicle size, composition, and dose on the blood residency times, leakage and tissue distributions of vesicles was therefore investigated at these lower doses, employing a cannulation procedure to monitor vesicles. It is demonstrated that the clearance of vesicles from the circulation exhibits biphasic kinetics. The relative number of vesicles cleared during the early phase (halflife <20 min) is decreased by increasing the vesicle dose or decreasing the size. The behavior of small vesicles produced by extrusion is also investigated, and the in vivo behavior of these systems is shown to be equivalent to conventional sonicated systems. The second part of this thesis investigates the binding of plasma proteins to vesicles in vitro. It is shown that vesicles bind a large number of plasma components and that the binding is strongly dependent on the surface charge of the vesicle. Some of the proteins have been tentatively identified with 2-D electrophoresis and several were positively identified via immuno- autoradiography. A hypothesis is advanced regarding the role of plasma proteins in the fate of liposomes in vivo.

Rischi e potenzialità ambientali   per la città in crisi

description: Urban areas are affected by a hard competition to be included in the
world city hierarchy of strong economy areas. To support the fragile
economies of cities, led by globalization dynamics and “free market”
rules, many local administrations promote big investments in new commercial
 and residential areas, resulting in urban sprawl, progressive erosion of
natural and rural areas and decreasing of environmental quality. Rethinking
the economy of the city can instead be an important opportunity to promote
sustainable strategies in urban areas, based on the designing of green areas,
as ecological networks, and on the renovation and re-use of brownfield sites.
In this paper two case studies are presented: Berlin and Amsterdam.

Les villes sont en permanente compétition pour occuper des positions
importantes au sein de la hiérachie urbaine mondiale. Pour promouvoir
les économies des villes, mises en crise par la globalisation et par le
durcissement des règles du marché libre, de nombreuses administrations locales
 misent sur/visent la construction de nouvelles aires commerciales et
résidentielles, avec des conséquences négatives sur le sprawl urbain/sur l’expansion urbaine anarchique, sur l’érosion des aires agricoles et naturelles, et
sur la qualité environnementale. La nécéssité de repenser l’économie des
villes peut, au contraire, être une opportunité à saisir pour promouvoir des
stratégies urbaines (soutenables) de développement durable, basées sur le
projet de zones vertes, sur la construction de réseaux écologiques et sur la
requalification des aires/la reconversion d’aires (qui ne sont plus utilisées/
abandonnées) désaffectées. La revalorisation de la composante environnementale de la ville peut donc être un instrument pour dépasser la crise et relancer les activités économiques (de manière défendable) en terme de développement durable, comme le démontrent les deux études de cas présentées dans ce travail: Berlin et Amsterdam.

description: The spin-gap system with a bond-disorder (CH3)2CHNH3-Cu(ClxBr1-x)3 is reported by experiments on macroscopic quantities of the uniform susceptibility and the specific heat to show a magnetic order at low temperatures when the value of x is within the limited region between 0.44 and 0.87, and otherwise a gapped behavior. We have investigated microscopically the ground state of the sample with x=0.35 by muon spin relaxation (mSR) to observe that the frequency spectrum of the spin fluctuation tends to concentrate around zero energy as lowering temperatures. This behavior was interpreted as the soft-mode toward the possible magnetic phase transition at absolute zero.

In recent years, many language models (LMs) have been proposed to fix erroneous programs and support error recovery. However, the LMs tend to generate solutions that differ from the original input programs. This leads to potential comprehension difficulties for users. In this paper, we propose an approach to suggest a correct program with minimal repair edits using CodeT5. We fine-tune a pre-trained CodeT5 on code pairs of wrong and correct programs and evaluate its performance with several baseline models. The experimental results show that the fine-tuned CodeT5 achieves a pass@100 of 91.95% and an average edit distance of the most similar correct program of 6.84, which indicates that at least one correct program can be suggested by generating 100 candidate programs. We demonstrate the effectiveness of LMs in suggesting program repair with minimal edits for solving introductory programming problems.

description: Actions for extended objects based on Transgression and Chern-Simons forms for space-time groups and supergroups provide a gauge theoretic framework in which to embed previously studied String and Brane actions, extending them in interesting ways that may be useful in a future non perturbative formulation of String Theory. In this Letter I investigate aspects of the actions of these theories, including equations of motion and boundary conditions, gauge and space-time symmetries, and Dirac quantization of tensions. This theoretical framework is shown to include in certain limit and for a suitable gauge group the standard Bosonic String Theory.

description: The temperature of the solar atmosphere increases from thousands to millions of degrees moving from the lower layer (chromosphere) to the outermost one (corona), while the density drops accordingly. The mechanism behind this phenomenon, known as a temperature inversion, is still unknown. In this work, we model a coronal loop as a collisionless plasma confined in a semicircular tube that is subject to the Sun's gravity and in thermal contact with a fully collisional chromosphere behaving as a thermostat at the loop's feet. By using kinetic $N$-particle simulations and analytical calculations, we show that rapid, intermittent, and short-lived heating events in the chromosphere drive the coronal plasma towards a non-equilibrium stationary state. The latter is characterized by suprathermal tails in the particles' velocity distribution functions, exhibiting temperature and density profiles strikingly similar to those observed in the atmosphere of the Sun. These results suggest that a million-Kelvin solar corona can be produced without the local deposition of heat in the upper layer of the atmosphere that is typically assumed by standard approaches. We find that suprathermal distribution functions in the corona are self-consistently produced instead of postulated a priori, in contrast to classical kinetic models based on a velocity filtration mechanism.

La cultura nelle strategie  di riposizionamento delle città.  Una riflessione critica
Creators: name: Pollice, Fabio
Publisher: name: Semestrale di studi e ricerche di geografia
Year: 2017

description: This paper proposes a critical analysis of urban regeneration strategies
focused on culture. Many of the experiences so far carried out show
the limits of a strongly exogenous strategic approach, more focused
on the turning of culture into a show for propaganda purposes rather than
on the creation of a system of territorial conditions able to produce culture,
that is a process of “creation and transformation of symbols”. The exogenous
 background and the content too often emulative of many projects concerned
 with culture-led urban regeneration distort the meaning itself of culture
 and end up by getting opposite effects from a social, economic and
cultural point of view, nullifying that inclusive effect which represents, from
the social point of view, its most qualifying element. Cultural regeneration
must be, on the contrary, a bottom-up process, involving the whole local
community and drawing on the identity of a place, interpreting its propositional
 charge in an innovative way.

Le présent travail propose une analyse critique des stratégies de régénération
 urbaine basées sur la culture. De nombreuses expériences réalisées
 à ce jour mettent en évidence les limites d’une approche stratégique
 fortement exogène, axée plutôt sur la spectacularisation de la culture
à des fins de propagande que sur la création d’un ensemble de conditions
territoriales capables d’activer les mécanismes locaux de production et de
reproduction de la connaissance et de produire effectivement une culture,
interprétée comme un processus de “création et transformation de symboles”.
 Le caractère exogène et le contenu, trop souvent, non original de
nombreux projets de régénération urbaine culture-led trahissent la signification
 même de culture et finissent par obtenir des résultats contre-productifs
sur le plan social, économique et culturel, annulant ainsi cet effet inclusif
qui, du point de vue social, en constitue l’élément le plus qualifiant. La régénération culturelle, comme on le souligne dans cet article, devrait être au
contraire un processus qui suit une démarche bottom-up, impliquant la
communauté locale toute entière et s’appuyant sur la matrice identitaire
d’un lieu, interprétant d’une façon innovante la charge créatrice qu’elle
contient.

description: We describe the electronic control of extraordinary terahertz transmission through subwavelength metal hole arrays fabricated on doped semiconductor substrates. The hybrid metal-semiconductor forms a Schottky diode structure, where the active depletion region modifies the substrate conductivity in real-time by applying an external voltage bias. This enables effective control of the resonance enhanced terahertz transmission. Our proof of principle device achieves an intensity modulation depth of 52% by changing the voltage bias between 0 and 16 volts. Further optimization may result in improvement of device performance and practical applications. This approach can be also translated to the other optical frequency ranges.

On N = 2 supergravity and projective superspace: Dual formulations

description: The superspace formulation for four-dimensional N = 2 matter-coupled supergravity recently developed in arXiv:0805.4683 makes use of a new type of conformal compensator with infinitely many off-shell degrees of freedom: the so-called covariant weight-one polar hypermultiplet. In the present note we prove the duality of this formulation to the known minimal (40+40) off-shell realization for N = 2 Poincare supergravity involving the improved tensor compensator. Within the latter formulation, we present new off-shell matter couplings realized in terms of covariant weight-zero polar hypermultiplets. We also elaborate upon the projective superspace description of vector multiplets in N = 2 conformal supergravity. An alternative superspace representation for locally supersymmetric chiral actions is given. We present a model for massive improved tensor multiplet with both ``electric'' and ``magnetic'' types. of mass terms.

description: The introduction of Single Instruction Multiple Data (SIMD) instructions in mainstream CPUs has enabled modern database engines to leverage data parallelism by performing more computation with a single instruction, resulting in a reduced number of instructions required to execute a query as well as the elimination of conditional branches. Though SIMD in the context of traditional database engines has been studied extensively, it has been overlooked in the context of spatial databases. In this paper, we investigate how spatial database engines can benefit from SIMD vectorization in the context of an R-tree spatial index. We present vectorized versions of the spatial range select, and spatial join operations over a vectorized R-tree index. For each of the operations, we investigate two storage layouts for an R-tree node to leverage SIMD instructions. We design vectorized algorithms for each of the spatial operations given each of the two data layouts. We show that the introduction of SIMD can improve the latency of the spatial query operators up to 9x. We introduce several optimizations over the vectorized implementation of these query operators, and study their effectiveness in query performance and various hardware performance counters under different scenarios.

description: An experimental scheme is proposed that allows direct measurement of the concurrence of a two-qubit cavity system. It is based on the cavity-QED technology using atoms as flying qubits and relies on the identity of the two-particle visibility of the atomic probability with the concurrence of the cavity system. The scheme works for any arbitrary pure initial state of the two-qubit cavity system.

description: In this letter, we determine the $κ$-distribution function for a gas in the presence of an external field of force described by a potential U(${\bf r}$). In the case of a dilute gas, we show that the $κ$-power law distribution including the potential energy factor term can rigorously be deduced in the framework of kinetic theory with basis on the Vlasov equation. Such a result is significant as a preliminary to the discussion on the role of long range interactions in the Kaniadakis thermostatistics and the underlying kinetic theory.
