description: Shor's powerful quantum algorithm for factoring represents a major challenge in quantum computation and its full realization will have a large impact on modern cryptography. Here we implement a compiled version of Shor's algorithm in a photonic system using single photons and employing the non-linearity induced by measurement. For the first time we demonstrate the core processes, coherent control, and resultant entangled states that are required in a full-scale implementation of Shor's algorithm. Demonstration of these processes is a necessary step on the path towards a full implementation of Shor's algorithm and scalable quantum computing. Our results highlight that the performance of a quantum algorithm is not the same as performance of the underlying quantum circuit, and stress the importance of developing techniques for characterising quantum algorithms.

The effect of streptozotocin-induced diabetes on the male Wistar rat : hepatic high capacity, low affinity estrogen binding protein
Creators: name: Smith, D'Arcy Randall
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: Several parallels have been noted between aryl hydrocarbon hydroxylase (AHH) activity (a measure of drug and steroid metabolism) and the high capacity low affinity (HCLA) estrogen binding protein. These include a sex and age dependency, as well as parallel changes in the AHH and HCLA levels due to various physiological manipulations (e.g. gonadectomy and hypophysectomy). It has been suggested from this evidence that there is a regulatory action of the HCLA estrogen binding protein on hepatic AHH activity. Since streptozotocin (STZ) induced diabetes is known to cause alterations in AHH activity we investigated the effects of this condition on the HCLA estrogen binding protein, and sought the hormonal control mechanism for the HCLA estrogen binding protein in this state. At both four and ten days post-induction of diabetes with STZ, there was approximately a 50% decrease in the binding capacity of the HCLA estrogen binding protein, with no alterations in the Kd value. Hormonal replacement was undertaken to restore the normal physiological levels of testosterone, insulin, triiodothyronine, and growth hormone; all of which are depressed in the diabetic. None of the treatment regimens carried out were able to restore the reduced binding capacity of the HCLA binding protein. Treatment with testosterone and insulin had previously been shown to restore AHH activity in gonadectomized and diabetic rats, respectively. Since we were unable to restore HCLA binding protein levels with these treatments in the diabetic rat, we conclude that there is no direct regulatory action of the HCLA binding protein on AHH activity in the rat. Several other species were also examined for the presence of a hepatic HCLA estrogen binding protein. We were unable to detect any such component in any of the other species examined, indicating that the HCLA binding protein may be rat specific. What physiological role the HCLA binding protein may be playing remains unclear at this time.

description: We formulate the Polyakov-Nambu-Jona-Lasinio (PNJL) model in 0+1 dimensions. The thermodynamics captured by the partition function yields a bulk pressure, as well as quark susceptibilities versus temperature that are similar to the ones in 3+1 dimensions. Around the transition temperature the behavior in the pressure and quark susceptibilities follows from the interplay between the lowest Matsubara frequency and the Polyakov line. The reduction to the lowest Matsubara frequency yields a matrix Model. In the presence of the Polyakov line the UV part of the Dirac spectrum features oscillations when close to the transition temperature.

description: We adopt the general formalism, which was developed in Paper I (arXiv:0708.1233) to analyze the evolution of a quantized time-dependent oscillator, to address several questions in the context of quantum field theory in time dependent external backgrounds. In particular, we study the question of emergence of classicality in terms of the phase space evolution and its relation to particle production, and clarify some conceptual issues. We consider a quantized scalar field evolving in a constant electric field and in FRW spacetimes which illustrate the two extreme cases of late time adiabatic and highly non-adiabatic evolution. Using the time-dependent generalizations of various quantities like particle number density, effective Lagrangian etc. introduced in Paper I, we contrast the evolution in these two limits bringing out key differences between the Schwinger effect and evolution in the de Sitter background. Further, our examples suggest that the notion of classicality is multifaceted and any one single criterion may not have universal applicability. For example, the peaking of the phase space Wigner distribution on the classical trajectory \emph{alone} does not imply transition to classical behavior. An analysis of the behavior of the \emph{classicality parameter}, which was introduced in Paper I, leads to the conclusion that strong particle production is necessary for the quantum state to become highly correlated in phase space at late times.

Ultrasmall volume Plasmons - yet with complete retardation effects

Year: 2008

description: Nano particle-plasmons are attributed to quasi-static oscillation with no wave propagation due to their subwavelength size. However, when located within a band-gap medium (even in air if the particle is small enough), the particle interfaces are acting as wave-mirrors, incurring small negative retardation. The latter when compensated by a respective (short) propagation within the particle substantiates a full-fledged resonator based on constructive interference. This unusual wave interference in the deep subwavelength regime (modal-volume<0.001lambda^3) significantly enhances the Q-factor, e.g. 50 compared to the quasi-static limit of 5.5.

description: As Europe is experiencing a second violent CoVid-19 storm, with the PCR-based testing system deteriorating due to the high volumes of people to be tested daily, there is a general reconsideration of the mathematical theories at the basis of our contact tracing and testing approaches. Drawing upon the concept of super spreader, we propose the use of (less sensitive) rapid tests to detect those secondary infections that do not need the use of PCRs, thus saving the most part of PCR tests currently used. This before the system fails.

title: Smart Assistive Technology for People with Visual Field Loss
Creators: name: Younis, Ola
Publisher: name: University of Liverpool Repository
Year: 2020

description: Visual field loss results in the lack of ability to clearly see objects in the surrounding environment, which affects the ability to determine potential hazards. In visual field loss, parts of the visual field are impaired to varying degrees, while other parts may remain healthy. This defect can be debilitating, making daily life activities very stressful. Unlike blind people, people with visual field loss retain some functional vision. It would be beneficial to intelligently augment this vision by adding computer-generated information to increase the users' awareness of possible hazards by providing early notifications. This thesis introduces a smart hazard attention system to help visual field impaired people with their navigation using smart glasses and a real-time hazard classification system. This takes the form of a novel, customised, machine learning-based hazard classification system that can be integrated into wearable assistive technology such as smart glasses. The proposed solution provides early notifications based on (1) the visual status of the user and (2) the motion status of the detected object. The presented technology can detect multiple objects at the same time and classify them into different hazard types. The system design in this work consists of four modules: (1) a deep learning-based object detector to recognise static and moving objects in real-time, (2) a Kalman Filter-based multi-object tracker to track the detected objects over time to determine their motion model, (3) a Neural Network-based classifier to determine the level of danger for each hazard using its motion features extracted while the object is in the user's field of vision, and (4) a feedback generation module to translate the hazard level into a smart notification to increase user's cognitive perception using the healthy vision within the visual field. For qualitative system testing, normal and personalised defected vision models were implemented. The personalised defected vision model was created to synthesise the visual function for the people with visual field defects. Actual central and full-field test results were used to create a personalised model that is used in the feedback generation stage of this system, where the visual notifications are displayed in the user's healthy visual area. The proposed solution will enhance the quality of life for people suffering from visual field loss conditions. This non-intrusive, wearable hazard detection technology can provide obstacle avoidance solution, and prevent falls and collisions early with minimal information.
A New Concept of Modular Parallel Mechanism for Machining Applications

description: The subject of this paper is the design of a new concept of modular parallel mechanisms for three, four or five-axis machining applications. Most parallel mechanisms are designed for three- or six-axis machining applications. In the last case, the position and the orientation of the tool are coupled and the shape of the workspace is complex. The aim of this paper is to use a simple parallel mechanism with two-degree-of-freedom (dof) for translation motions and to add one or two legs to add one or two-dofs for rotation motions. The kinematics and singular configurations are studied for each mechanism.

description: We propose a time-delay oscillator with Mackey-Glass nonlinearity based on a pinned magnetic domain wall in a thin film nanostrip. Through spin transfer torques, electric currents applied along the strip cause the domain wall to deform and displace away from a geometrical pinning site, which can be converted into a nonlinear transfer function through a suitable choice of a readout. This readout serves as a delay signal, which is subsequently fed back into the applied current with amplification. With micromagnetics simulations, we study the role of the readout position, time delay, and feedback gain on the dynamics of this domain wall. In particular, we highlight regimes in which self-sustained oscillations and complex transients are possible.

description: Variational quantum algorithms that are used for quantum machine learning rely on the ability to automatically differentiate parametrized quantum circuits with respect to underlying parameters. Here, we propose the rules for differentiating quantum circuits (unitaries) with arbitrary generators. Unlike the standard parameter shift rule valid for unitaries generated by operators with spectra limited to at most two unique eigenvalues (represented by involutory and idempotent operators), our approach also works for generators with a generic non-degenerate spectrum. Based on a spectral decomposition, we derive a simple recipe that allows explicit derivative evaluation. The derivative corresponds to the weighted sum of measured expectations for circuits with shifted parameters. The number of function evaluations is equal to the number of unique positive non-zero spectral gaps (eigenvalue differences) for the generator. We apply the approach to relevant examples of two-qubit gates, among others showing that the fSim gate can be differentiated using four measurements. Additionally, we present generalized differentiation rules for the case of Pauli string generators, based on distinct shifts (here named as the triangulation approach), and analyse the variance for derivative measurements in different scenarios. Our work offers a toolbox for the efficient hardware-oriented differentiation needed for circuit optimization and operator-based derivative representation.

description: Using a sample of 248 metal-poor stars (RR Lyraes, red giants and RHB stars) which is remarkable for the accuracy of its 6-D kinematical data, we find a new component for the local halo which has an axial ratio c/a ~ 0.2, a similar flattening to the thick disk. It has a small prograde rotation but is supported by velocity anisotropy, and contains more intermediate-metallicity stars (with -1.5 < [Fe/H] < -1.0) than the rest of our sample. We suggest that this component was formed quite late, during or after the formation of the disk. It formed either from the gas that was accreted by the last major mergers experienced by the Galaxy, or by dynamical friction of massive infalling satellite(s) with the halo and possibly the stellar disk or thick disk. The remainder of the stars in our sample exhibit a clumpy distribution in energy and angular momentum, suggesting that the early, chaotic conditions under which the inner halo formed were not violent enough to erase the record of their origins. The clumpy structure suggests that a relatively small number of progenitors were responsible for building up the inner halo, in line with theoretical expectations. We find a difference in mean binding energy between the RR Lyrae variables and the red giants in our sample, suggesting that more of the RR Lyraes in the sample belong to the outer halo, and that the outer halo may be somewhat younger, as first suggested by Searle and Zinn (1978). We also find that the RR Lyrae mean rotation is more negative than the red giants, which is consistent with the recent result of Carollo et al.(2007) that the outer halo has a retrograde rotation and with the difference in kinematics seen between RR Lyraes and BHB stars by Kinman et al.(2007).

description: One year after the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, the origin of SARS-CoV-2 still eludes humanity. Early publications firmly stated that the virus was of natural origin, and the possibility that the virus might have escaped from a lab was discarded in most subsequent publications. However, based on a re-analysis of the initial arguments, highlighted by the current knowledge about the virus, we show that the natural origin is not supported by conclusive arguments, and that a lab origin cannot be formally discarded. We call for an opening of peer-reviewed journals to a rational, evidence-based and prejudice-free evaluation of all the reasonable hypotheses about the virus' origin. We advocate that this debate should take place in the columns of renowned scientific journals, rather than being left to social media and newspapers.

We report the robust self-organisation of the vortex lattice domains to elongated parallel stripes perpendicular to the applied current in a steady-state. The experimental results for the formation of the superstructure are supported by theoretical calculations, which highlight important details of the vortex matter evolution. The investigation demonstrates a mechanism of a spontaneous pattern formation that is closely related to the universal physics governing the intermediate mixed state in low-$κ$ superconductors.

description: On the level of single atoms and photons, the coupling between atoms and the electromagnetic field is typically very weak. By employing a cavity to confine the field, the strength of this interaction can be increased many orders of magnitude to a point where it dominates over any dissipative process. This strong-coupling regime of cavity quantum electrodynamics has been reached for real atoms in optical cavities, and for artificial atoms in circuit QED and quantum-dot systems. A signature of strong coupling is the splitting of the cavity transmission peak into a pair of resolvable peaks when a single resonant atom is placed inside the cavity - an effect known as vacuum Rabi splitting. The circuit QED architecture is ideally suited for going beyond this linear response effect. Here, we show that increasing the drive power results in two unique nonlinear features in the transmitted heterodyne signal: the supersplitting of each vacuum Rabi peak into a doublet, and the appearance of additional peaks with the characteristic sqrt(n) spacing of the Jaynes-Cummings ladder. These constitute direct evidence for the coupling between the quantized microwave field and the anharmonic spectrum of a superconducting qubit acting as an artificial atom.

description: This book compares the courtroom discourse of the adversarial system to the courtroom discourse of the inquisitorial system by comparing a trial occurring in the United States of America, which has an adversarial system, to a trial occurring in Poland, which has an inquisitorial system. Though the trials are quite different from each other – a murder case involving the famous American football player O. J. Simpson and a theft case involving a teenage boy – the manner in which these cases are handled illustrates important differences between the two systems. As such, it falls within the broader literature on comparative legal systems. This literature is already quite robust. Indeed, a quick search of LexisNexis Academic using the key words "adversarial legal system" or "adversarial legal culture" yeilds 997 hits, and a search using the key words "inquisitorial legal system" results in 999 hits. The literature has been increasingly critical of the adversarial system since at least the 1980s, despite its entrenchment in the American legal system.
Electrical and chemical responsiveness of trigeminal root ganglion neurons of the guinea pig in vitro

Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: Intracellular recording techniques were used to investigate the electrical and chemical membrane properties of neuronal somata in guinea pig trigeminal root ganglion (TRG) slices. All impaled neurons (150) remained quiescent prior to square wave current pulse injection through the intracellular recording electrode. The majority of neurons (≈ 100) exhibited voltage-and time-dependent rectification in response to hyperpolarizing current pulses. Two groups of neurons were distinguished on the basis of action potential characteristics. In one group, action potentials had a plateau (hump) in the repolarization phase. Action potentials evoked from the second group of neurons did not have this characteristic. Average amplitude and duration of spikes and afterhyperpolarizations was larger in the first group of neurons. Bath application of S-glutamate (10⁻²M) caused small (1-2 mV) depolarizations in 2 of 6 neurons tested. These depolarizations were not associated with changes in membrane conductance. 5-hydroxytryptamine (10⁻³ M) produced a small conductance increase and depolarization in 1 of 6 neurons tested. Similar application of 7-aminobutyric acid (GABA; 10⁻⁴-10⁻² M) produced decreases in membrane resistance (up to 63%) associated with membrane depolarization (2-14 mV) in 30 of 36 neurons tested. Reduction of spike amplitude was observed during GABA-mediated depolarization. These investigations suggest that membrane properties of guinea pig TRG neurons are similar to those reported for other mammalian sensory ganglion neurons.

Problematyka wspólnotowości, jak słusznie za Michelem Walzerem [1] zauważa autorka, podlega intelektualnym modom, które – jak spodnie w kant czy spódniczki mini – „przemijają, ale możemy być pewni ich powrotu" (s. 9). W Polsce w ostatnich latach mamy do czynienia z renesansem zainteresowania tym zjawiskiem, o czym świadczy nie tylko ilość publikowanych artykułów i rozpraw, ale również popularność, jaką cieszą się przekłady kanonicznych w tym obszarze lektur, jak choćby Samotnej gry w kręgle Roberta D. Putnama [2] czy Czasu plemion Michela Maffesolego [3].

description: We summarize the relations among three classes of laws: infinitely divisible, selfdecomposable and stable. First we look at them as the solutions of the Central Limit Problem; then their role is scrutinized in relation to the Levy and the additive processes with an emphasis on stationarity and selfsimilarity. Finally we analyze the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck processes driven by Levy noises and their selfdecomposable stationary distributions, and we end with a few particular examples.

description: So detailliert wie in Imke Hansens Untersuchung ist das erste Jahrzehnt der Gedenkstätte und des Museums Auschwitz-Birkenau noch nicht nachgezeichnet worden. Der mikro- und alltagsgeschichtliche Zugang gewährt überzeugend Einblick in die „Repräsentationen des Ortes, seiner Geschichte und Bedeutung" (S. 12) und verfeinert das Wissen über Ursprünge und Wechselwirkungen von Geschichtspolitik in Polen vor, während und kurz nach dem Stalinismus. Den Befund, dass die Repräsentationen von Auschwitz-Birkenau kurz nach dem Krieg nicht auf negative Geschichte zielten, sondern positive Bezüge herstellten, stellt Hansen in der konsequenten Anwendung und Belastung ihrer Methoden her. Paradigmatisch für diese Strategie steht das titelgebende „Nie wieder Auschwitz", das eine „der Zukunft zugewandte Abgrenzung von der Geschichte des Ortes" enthielt. Eine weitere Dimension dieser Losung verortet Hansen in ihrer Tauglichkeit, innerhalb verschiedener Diskurse verwendet werden zu können.

description: In their classical work (Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA, 1981, 78:6840-6844), Goldbeter and Koshland mathematically analyzed a reversible covalent modification system which is highly sensitive to the concentration of effectors. Its signal-response curve appears sigmoidal, constituting a biochemical switch. However, the switch behavior only emerges in the "zero-order region", i.e. when the signal molecule concentration is much lower than that of the substrate it modifies. In this work we showed that the switching behavior can also occur under comparable concentrations of signals and substrates, provided that the signal molecules catalyze the modification reaction in cooperation. We also studied the effect of dynamic disorders on the proposed biochemical switch, in which the enzymatic reaction rates, instead of constant, appear as stochastic functions of time. We showed that the system is robust to dynamic disorder at bulk concentration. But if the dynamic disorder is quasi-static, large fluctuations of the switch response behavior may be observed at low concentrations. Such fluctuation is relevant to many biological functions. It can be reduced by either increasing the conformation interconversion rate of the protein, or correlating the enzymatic reaction rates in the network.

description: Publikacja Moniki Golonki-Czajkowskiej jest próbą ukazania jednego z najbardziej nośnych mitów powojennej Polski: mitu Nowej Huty jako modelowego socjalistycznego miasta. Jej celem jest – jak autorka wskazuje we wprowadzeniu – wyodrębnienie i rekonstrukcja mitologii nowohuckich. Składają się na nie mniej i bardziej znane mity: (1) zaprojektowanego i zbudowanego od podstaw socjalistycznego projektu Nowego Miasta Nowych Ludzi, ale też tego, który znosi go i unieważnia – (2) mitu Nowej Huty jako miasta – buntownika, miasta walki o krzyż i godność robotników, wreszcie miasta o tradycjach i historii starszej niż Kraków. Książka jest ciekawą i bardzo solidnie obudowaną teoretycznie pracą z obszaru, który jest szczególnie intensywnie eksplorowany w ostatnich latach: zainteresowania miejscem, przestrzenią. Mimo, iż autorka jest antropolożką i prowadzi wywód w kategoriach opisu antropologicznego, to publikacja może być użyteczna dla ceniących interdyscyplinarność badaczy życia społecznego, którzy poszukują inspiracji do własnych badań. Można ją postrzegać jako rodzaj pogłębionej „biografii miejsca" (ang. biography of a place), nurtu badań coraz częściej podejmowanych m.in. przez socjologów, psychologów czy pedagogów (por. m.in. „psychologia miejsca" Marii Lewickiej [1] czy „pedagogika miejsca" Marii Mendel [2]).

description: We use the 21 cm emission line data from the DINGO-VLA project to study the atomic hydrogen gas H\,{\textsc i} of the Universe at redshifts $z<0.1$. Results are obtained using a stacking analysis, combining the H\,{\textsc i} signals from 3622 galaxies extracted from 267 VLA pointings in the G09 field of the Galaxy and Mass Assembly Survey (GAMA). Rather than using a traditional one-dimensional spectral stacking method, a three-dimensional cubelet stacking method is used to enable deconvolution and the accurate recovery of average galaxy fluxes from this high-resolution interferometric dataset. By probing down to galactic scales, this experiment also overcomes confusion corrections that have been necessary to include in previous single dish studies. After stacking and deconvolution, we obtain a $30σ$ H\,{\textsc i} mass measurement from the stacked spectrum, indicating an average H\,{\textsc i} mass of $M_{\rm H\,{\textsc i}}=(1.674\pm 0.183)\times 10^{9}~{\Msun}$. The corresponding cosmic density of neutral atomic hydrogen is $Ω_{\rm H\,{\textsc i}}=(0.377\pm 0.042)\times 10^{-3}$ at redshift of $z=0.051$. These values are in good agreement with earlier results, implying there is no significant evolution of $Ω_{\rm H\,{\textsc i}}$ at lower redshifts.

description: We performed high-pressure transport measurements on high-quality single crystals of KOs2O6, a beta-pyrochlore superconductor. While the resistivity at high temperatures might approach saturation, there is no sign of saturation at low temperatures, down to the superconducting phase. The anomalous resistivity is accompanied by a nonmetallic behavior in the thermoelectric power (TEP) up to temperatures of at least 700 K, which also exhibits a broad hump with a maximum at 60 K. The pressure influences mostly the low-energy electronic excitations. A simple band model based on enhanced density of states in a narrow window around the Fermi energy (EF) explains the main features of this unconventional behavior in the transport coefficients and its evolution under pressure.

description: BackgroundReactive arthritis, irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), Guillain-Barré syndrome, ulcerative colitis, and Crohn's disease may be sequelae of Campylobacter or non-typhoidal Salmonella (NTS) infections. Proton pump inhibitors (PPI) and antibiotics may increase the risk of gastrointestinal infections (GII); however, their impact on sequelae onset is unclear. We investigated the incidence of sequelae, their association with antibiotics and PPI prescription, and assessed the economic impact on the NHS.MethodsData from the Clinical Practice Research Datalink for patients consulting their GP for Campylobacter or NTS infection, during 2000–2015, were linked to hospital, mortality, and Index of Multiple Deprivation data. We estimated the incidence of sequelae and deaths in the 12 months following GII. We conducted logistic regression modelling for the adjusted association with prescriptions. We compared differences in resource use and costs pre- and post-infection amongst patients with and without sequelae.FindingsOf 20,471 patients with GII (Campylobacter 17,838), less than 2% (347) developed sequelae, with IBS (268) most common. Amongst Campylobacter patients, those with prescriptions for PPI within 12 months before and cephalosporins within 7-days before/after infection had elevated risk of IBS (adjusted odds ratio [aOR] 2.1, 1.5–2.9) and (aOR 3.6, 1.1–11.7) respectively. Campylobacter sequelae led to ∼ £1.3 million, (£750,000, £1.7 million) in additional annual NHS expenditure.InterpretationSequelae of Campylobacter and NTS infections are rare but associated with increased NHS costs. Prior prescription of PPI may be a modifiable risk factor. Incidence of sequelae, healthcare resource use and costs are essential parameters for future burden of disease studies.

description: Beyond redshift ~1.4 the only spectral feature that allows one to get the redshift of passively evolving galaxies (PEG) with optical spectrographs is a characteristic structure due to a set of iron and magnesium lines lines at 2600-2850 Angstrom in the rest frame. The same feature permits also to estimate the time elapsed since the cessation of star formation. Current efforts at observing high redshift PEGs at the VLT and SUBARU telescopes are briefly reviewed.
