Preparing two-atom entangled state in a cavity and probing it via quantum non-demolition measurement
Creators: name: Rossatto, D. Z.

description: We propose a probabilistic scheme to prepare a maximally entangled state between a pair of two-level atoms inside a leaking cavity, without requiring precise time-controlling of the system evolution and initial atomic state. We show that the steady state of this dissipative system is a mixture of two parts: either the atoms being in their ground state or in a maximally entangled one. Then, by applying a weak probe field on the cavity mode we are able to distinguish those states without disturbing the atomic system, i.e., performing a quantum non-demolition measurement via the cavity transmission. In this scheme, one has nonzero cavity transmission only when the atomic system is in an entangled state so that a single click in the detector is enough to ensure that the atoms are in an maximally entangled state. Our scheme relies on an interference effect as it happens in electromagnetically induced transparency phenomenon so that it works out even in the limit of decay rate of the cavity mode much stronger than the atom-field coupling.

description: Since the dawn of the 20th century, the field of medical science has undergone remarkable advancements, largely driven by the integration of technology. Notably, the utilization of embedded technology to restore malfunctioning organs to a state closer to their natural functionality has found its pinnacle in the realm of permanent transvenous pacemaker therapy, emerging as an indispensable therapeutic approach for patients afflicted by symptomatic bradyarrhythmia.The evolution of cardiac pacemakers has unfolded in parallel with the evolution of microelectronics and its profound role in information technology. As silicon-based microcontrollers and microprocessors have advanced, they have ushered in a digital revolution that has left an indelible mark on pacemaker technology. Contemporary pacemaker hardware is endowed with the remarkable ability to be programmed and reprogrammed without the need for invasive procedures. This capability, coupled with its diverse feature set, is enabled or disabled, and seamlessly synchronized with specialized external devices through wireless connectivity.Starting in the 1980s, manufacturers of cardiac pacemakers, themselves pioneers of cutting-edge technology, began harnessing the potential of expert systems and early artificial intelligence techniques to optimize therapy selection and analyze complex electrocardiogram results.Today, the rapid progress in artificial intelligence, amplified by exponential growth in computational power and the proliferation of correlated devices, is ushering in a transformative era. AI-powered applications and the vast landscape of Big Data analytics are revolutionizing the quality of life for patients and their caregivers through enhanced atrial fibrillation detection. This transformation is facilitated by the ubiquitous expansion of the Internet of Things and breakthroughs in telecommunication technologies.This research embarks on a journey through the realm of AI-aided innovations in cardiac health. It explores the frontiers of 3D imaging, the creation of virtual hearts, the simulation of cardiac arrhythmias, robotics, non-invasive ablation therapies, and the integration of augmented reality. These advancements are driving the realization of a future where pacemakers evolve into genuine implantable Artificial Intelligence entities, revolutionizing the landscape of cardiac arrhythmia care.

A Note on Strongly Quasidiagonal Groups

Subjects: subject: Operator Algebras (math.OA)

subject: FOS: Mathematics

description: In this note we address a question of Don Hadwin: "Which groups have strongly quasidiagonal C*-algebras?" In recent work we showed that all finitely generated virtually nilpotent groups have strongly quasidiagonal C*-algebras, while together with Carrión and Dadarlat we showed that most wreath products fail to have strongly quasidiagonal C*-algebras. These two results raised the question of whether or not strong quasidiagonality could characterize virtual nilpotence among finitely generated groups. The purpose of this note is to provide examples of finitely generated groups (in fact of the form $\Z^3\rtimes \Z^2$) that are not virtually nilpotent yet have strongly quasidiagonal C*-algebras. Moreover we show these examples are the "simplest" possible by proving that a group of the form $\Z^d\rtimes \Z$ is virtually nilpotent if and only if its group C*-algebra is strongly quasidiagonal.

Community colleges

description: Many recent high school graduates who enter community college are required to take remedial or
developmental education courses before enrolling in college-level courses. Developmental courses
essentially reteach high school– and junior high school–level content in reading, writing, and math. In some cases, students are referred to two or even three courses of developmental education in a single subject area. The annual cost of providing remediation to community college students nationwide has been estimated at approximately $7 billion.

description: Feeding disorders represent a common problem that affects children’s health and family routines and since information about non-pharmacological interventions is limited, a scoping review was conducted to identify and describe non-pharmacological interventions for pediatric feeding disorders. This review identified 74 studies. Behavioral strategies were the most common type of intervention. Most studies combined two or more different types of interventions, used an interdisciplinary approach was frequently observed and the profession with the highest frequency of occurrence is occupational therapy. Future research could focus on investigating a greater number of studies with higher levels of evidence and analyzing intervention effectiveness.

description: Ages have been derived for 55 globular clusters (GCs) from overlays of isochrones onto the turnoff photometry, assuming distances based on fits of zero-age horizontal branch (ZAHB) models to the lower bound of the observed distributions of HB stars. The error bar arising just from the "fitting" of ZAHBs and isochrones is ~ +/- 0.25 Gyr, while that associated with distance and chemical abundance uncertainties is ~ +/- 1.5-2 Gyr. Ages vary from mean values of ~12.5 Gyr at [Fe/H] < -1.7 to ~11 Gyr at [Fe/H] > -1.0. At intermediate metallicities, the age-metallicity relation (AMR) appears to be bifurcated: one branch apparently contains clusters with disk-like kinematics, whereas the other branch is populated by clusters with halo-type orbits. There is no apparent dependence of age on Galactocentric distance (R_G) nor is there a clear correlation of HB type with age. Subtle variations in the subgiant branch (SGB) slopes of [Fe/H] < -1.5 GCs are tentatively attributed to helium abundance differences. Curiously, GCs with steep "M13-like" SGBs tend to be massive systems, located at small R_G, that show the strongest evidence for multiple stellar populations. The others are typically low-mass systems that, at the present time, should not be able to retain the matter lost by mass-losing stars. The apparent separation of the two groups in terms of their present-day gas retention properties is difficult to understand if all GCs were initial ~20 times their current masses. The lowest mass systems may have never been able to retain enough gas to produce a significant population of second-generation stars; in this case, the observed light element abundance variations were presumably present in the gas out of which the observed cluster stars formed.

On client interactive behaviour to design peer selection policies for BitTorrent-like protocols

description: Peer-to-peer swarming protocols have been proven to be very efficient for content replication over Internet. This fact has certainly motivated proposals to adapt these protocols to meet the requirements of on-demand streaming system. The vast majority of these proposals focus on modifying the piece and peer selection policies, respectively, of the original protocols. Nonetheless, it is true that more attention has often been given to the piece selection policy rather than to the peer selection policy. Within this context, this article proposes a simple algorithm to be used as basis for peer selection policies of BitTorrent-like protocols, considering interactive scenarios. To this end, we analyze the client interactive behaviour when accessing real multimedia systems. This analysis consists of looking into workloads of real content providers and assessing three important metrics, namely temporal dispersion, spatial dispersion and object position popularity. These metrics are then used as the main guidelines for writing the algorithm. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first time that the client interactive behaviour is specially considered to derive an algorithm for peer selection policies. Finally, the conclusion of this article is drawn with key challenges and possible future work in this research field.

description: Observations of magnetic activity cycles in other stars provide a broader context for our understanding of the 11-year sunspot cycle. The discovery of short activity cycles in a few stars, and the recognition of analogous variability in the Sun, suggest that there may be two distinct dynamos operating in different regions of the interior. Consequently, there is a natural link between studies of magnetic activity and asteroseismology, which can characterize some of the internal properties that are relevant to dynamos. I provide a brief historical overview of the connection between these two fields (including prescient work by Wojtek Dziembowski in 2007), and I highlight some exciting results that are beginning to emerge from the Kepler mission.

description: Vector-borne pathogens, many of which cause major suffering worldwide, often circulate in diverse wildlife communities comprising multiple reservoir host and/or vector species. However, the complexities of these systems make it challenging to determine the contributions these different species make to transmission. We experimentally manipulated transmission within a natural multihost–multipathogen–multivector system, by blocking flea-borne pathogen transmission from either of two co-occurring host species (bank voles and wood mice). Through genetic analysis of the resulting infections in the hosts and vectors, we show that both host species likely act together to maintain the overall flea community, but cross-species pathogen transmission is relatively rare—most pathogens were predominantly found in only one host species, and there were few cases where targeted treatment affected pathogens in the other host species. However, we do provide experimental evidence of some reservoir–spillover dynamics whereby reductions of some infections in one host species are obtained by blocking transmission from the other host species. Overall, despite the apparent complexity of such systems, we show there can be ‘covert simplicity’, whereby pathogen transmission is primarily dominated by single host species, potentially facilitating the targeting of key hosts for control, even in diverse ecological communities.

These students are required to take remedial or developmental education courses before enrolling in college-level courses; in some cases, students are referred to two, three, or even four semesters of developmental education. However, recent evidence suggests that this system is not as effective as colleges might hope. While the annual cost of providing remediation to community college students nationwide has been estimated at more than $2 billion, many developmental education students never successfully progress to and through college-level courses.

description: "Since the Cold War, debate in the West over the future of the international order has ﬁxated upon the discourse of moral liberalism. Moral liberals envision a liberal democratic world order, focus on the individual, and invoke the need to secure universal human rights—derived variously from naturalistic, consensus, and functional theories, and construed generally to mean claims to human security (i.e., freedom from fear and want)—as justiﬁcation for interventionist responses, and to claim moral high ground (i.e., “just war”) in the international arena.
During the 1990s and 2000s, two positions within this discourse—the cosmopolitan and the hegemonic—bifurcated the vast majority of Western statesmen, policymakers, and informed citizens participating in public political discussion. While both cosmopolitan and hegemonic moral liberals intend to advance the type of humanitarian internationalism described above, they diﬀer in the means they propose and the concretized institutional ends they seek. The schism staged a “choice” for denizens of the West to resolve."--from page 58

description: The reversal of spins in a magnetic material as they relax toward equilibrium is accompanied by the release of Zeeman energy which can lead to accelerated spin relaxation and the formation of a well-defined self-sustained propagating spin-reversal front known as magnetic deflagration. To date, studies of Mn$_{12}$-acetate single crystals have focused mainly on deflagration in large longitudinal magnetic fields and found a fully spin-reversed final state. We report a systematic study of the effect of transverse magnetic field on magnetic deflagration and demonstrate that in small longitudinal fields the final state consists of only partially reversed spins. Further, we measured the front speed as a function of applied magnetic field. The theory of magnetic deflagration, together with a modification that takes into account the partial spin reversal, fits the transverse field dependence of the front speed but not its dependence on longitudinal field. The most significant result of this study is the finding of a partially spin-reversed final state, which is evidence that the spins at the deflagration front are also only partially reversed.

Community colleges

description: Many community college students fail to graduate. Even among those students who enroll for a substantial period of time and who earn a significant number of college credits, many fail to complete an award. To improve completion rates in community colleges, administrators may want to focus attention on this group of students we call “lingerers.” Compared with other students, such as those who drop out early in their college careers, lingerers demonstrate persistence and a strong intention to complete a college program, yet they do not earn an award. This result is costly both for the students and the colleges they attend. In this analysis, we examine the following questions: What are the characteristics of lingerers in community college? How do their course-taking behaviors differ from those of students who complete an award? What prevents them from completing? Our analysis is based on extensive unit record data on cohorts of students at nine community colleges in three states. The data include information on student demographics, course enrollment and performance, credential completion, and transfer. We track students for up to five academic years. The data used in this analysis are from the 2005–06 first-time-in-college (FTIC) student cohort at these nine colleges. Credit students (i.e., those students who either placed into or enrolled in developmental education or those who either placed into or enrolled in college-level coursework) constituted 36 percent of the full FTIC sample. We limit our study to this subset of credit students in order to restrict our analysis to students who were mostly likely to earn an award or transfer to a four-year college. As a result, the full sample used in our analysis is 27,713 students. We define lingerers as students in the sample who completed 30 or more college-level semester credits and were still enrolled in the same community college in their fifth year but who had not yet earned a credential. About 9 percent of students in our sample were lingerers. We also make comparisons with “completers,” students who earned an associate degree at the community college within five years. About 6 percent of students in our sample were completers.
Efficient local behavioral change strategies to reduce the spread of epidemics in networks

description: It has recently become established that the spread of infectious diseases between humans is affected not only by the pathogen itself but also by changes in behavior as the population becomes aware of the epidemic; for example, social distancing. It is also well known that community structure (the existence of relatively densely connected groups of vertices) in contact networks influences the spread of disease. We propose a set of local strategies for social distancing, based on community structure, that can be employed in the event of an epidemic to reduce the epidemic size. Unlike most social distancing methods, ours do not require individuals to know the disease state (infected or susceptible, etc.) of others, and we do not make the unrealistic assumption that the structure of the entire contact network is known. Instead, the recommended behavior change is based only on an individual's local view of the network. Each individual avoids contact with a fraction of his/her contacts, using knowledge of his/her local network to decide which contacts should be avoided. If the behavior change occurs only when an individual becomes ill or aware of the disease, these strategies can substantially reduce epidemic size with a relatively small cost, measured by the number of contacts avoided.

description: MANET is a cooperative network in which nodes are responsible for forwarding as well as routing. Noncooperation is still a big challenge that certainly degrades the performance and reliability of a MANET. This paper presents a novel methodology to overcome routing misbehavior in MANET using Retaliation Model. In this model node misbehavior is watched and an equivalent misbehavior is given in return. This model employs several parameters such as number of packets forwarded, number of packets received for forwarding, packet forwarding ratio etc. to calculate Grade and Bonus Points. The Grade is used to isolate selfish nodes from the routing paths and the Bonus Points defines the number of packets dropped by an honest node in retaliation over its misconducts. The implementation is done in "GloMoSim" on top of the DSR protocol. We obtained up to 40% packet delivery ratio with a cost of a minimum of 7.5% overhead compared to DSR. To minimize total control traffic overhead we have included the FG Model with our model and it reduces the overhead up to 75%. This model enforces cooperation due to its stricter punishment strategy and justifies its name.

description: Context: The nature of the progenitors of type Ia supernova (SN) progenitors remains unclear. While it is usually agreed that single-degenerate progenitor systems would be luminous supersoft X-ray sources (SSSs), it was recently suggested that double-degenerate progenitors might also go through a SSS phase. Aims: We aim to examine the possibility of double-degenerate progenitor systems being SSSs, and place stringent upper limits on the maximally possible durations of any SSS phases and expected number of these systems in a galactic population. Method: We employ the binary population synthesis code SeBa to examine the mass-transfer characteristics of a possible SSS phase of double-degenerate type Ia SN progenitor systems for 1) the standard SeBa assumptions, and 2) an optimistic best-case scenario. The latter case establishes firm upper limits on the possible population of supersoft source double-degenerate type Ia SN progenitor systems. Results: Our results indicate that unlike what is expected for single-degenerate progenitor systems, the vast majority of the material accreted by either pure wind mass transfer or a combination of wind and RLOF mass transfer is helium rather than hydrogen. Even with extremely optimistic assumptions concerning the mass-transfer and retention efficiencies, the average mass accreted by systems that eventually become double-degenerate type Ia SNe is small. Consequently, the lengths of time that these systems may be SSSs are short, even under optimal conditions, and the expected number of such systems in a galactic population is negligible. Conclusions: The population of double-degenerate type Ia SN progenitors that are SSSs is at least an order of magnitude smaller than the population of single-degenerate progenitors expected to be SSSs, and the supersoft X-ray behaviour of double-degenerate systems typically ceases long before the SN explosions.

description: In this paper we use the method of generalized gravitational entropy in \cite{Lewkowycz:2013nqa} to construct the dual bulk geometry for a spherical entangling surface, and calculate the Rényi entropy with the dual bulk gravity theory being either Einstein gravity or Lovelock gravity, this approach is closely related to that in \cite{Casini:2011kv}. For a general entangling surface we derive the area law of entanglement entropy. The area law is closely related with the local property of the entangling surface.

subject: Teacher education and professional development of educators

description: Purpose: The purpose of this study was to examine school-based speech-language pathologists’ (SLPs’) implementation of services to address students’ executive function (EF) needs, with particular emphasis on the prevalence and characteristics of EF interventions and the factors and barriers that influence service provision for students with EF needs.Method: We applied an explanatory sequential mixed-methods research design, beginning with a quantitative survey followed by a series of qualitative interviews. We analyzed the survey results using descriptive data and binary logistic regressions and used the emergent trends to inform our interview protocol, so that we could explore those trends in greater detail and context. We synthesized our quantitative and qualitative data to evaluate the characteristics of EF interventions and the factors influencing services.Results: Most SLPs reported that they addressed their students’ EF needs through some sort of direct or indirect intervention. Direct interventions varied by targeted domain, service delivery setting, and teaching techniques, though most SLPs favored strategy instruction and highly contextualized services. Indirect services included accommodations and consultation. SLPs commonly reported the lack of collaborative support, time, and knowledge as barriers, and most reported that professional development would be helpful to improve their services.Conclusions: Speech-language pathology graduate programs and providers of professional development should be mindful of their role in preparing SLPs to address EF needs, while SLPs may use these results to inform their own practice. Further guidance and research are necessary to elucidate the SLPs’ role in mitigating the negative impact of EF challenges on students’ education.Supplemental Material S1.

description: The Facility for Rare Isotope Beams (FRIB) will be a world-leading laboratory for the study of nuclear structure, reactions and astrophysics. Experiments with intense beams of rare isotopes produced at FRIB will guide us toward a comprehensive description of nuclei, elucidate the origin of the elements in the cosmos, help provide an understanding of matter in neutron stars, and establish the scientific foundation for innovative applications of nuclear science to society. FRIB will be essential for gaining access to key regions of the nuclear chart, where the measured nuclear properties will challenge established concepts, and highlight shortcomings and needed modifications to current theory. Conversely, nuclear theory will play a critical role in providing the intellectual framework for the science at FRIB, and will provide invaluable guidance to FRIB's experimental programs. This article overviews the broad scope of the FRIB theory effort, which reaches beyond the traditional fields of nuclear structure and reactions, and nuclear astrophysics, to explore exciting interdisciplinary boundaries with other areas. \keywords{Nuclear Structure and Reactions.

description: This paper describes the open-source code Enzo, which uses block-structured adaptive mesh refinement to provide high spatial and temporal resolution for modeling astrophysical fluid flows. The code is Cartesian, can be run in 1, 2, and 3 dimensions, and supports a wide variety of physics including hydrodynamics, ideal and non-ideal magnetohydrodynamics, N-body dynamics (and, more broadly, self-gravity of fluids and particles), primordial gas chemistry, optically-thin radiative cooling of primordial and metal-enriched plasmas (as well as some optically-thick cooling models), radiation transport, cosmological expansion, and models for star formation and feedback in a cosmological context. In addition to explaining the algorithms implemented, we present solutions for a wide range of test problems, demonstrate the code's parallel performance, and discuss the Enzo collaboration's code development methodology.

The Interaction of Two Coronal Mass Ejections: Influence of Relative Orientation

description: We report on a numerical investigation of two coronal mass ejections (CMEs) which interact as they propagate in the inner heliosphere. We focus on the effect of the orientation of the CMEs relative to each other by performing four different simulations with the axis of the second CME rotated by 90 degrees from one simulation to the next. Each magneto-hydrodynamic (MHD) simulation is performed in three dimensions (3-D) with the Space Weather Modeling Framework (SWMF) in an idealized setting reminiscent of solar minimum conditions. We extract synthetic satellite measurements during and after the interaction and compare the different cases. We also analyze the kinematics of the two CMEs, including the evolution of their widths and aspect ratios. We find that the first CME contracts radially as a result of the interaction in all cases, but the amount of subsequent radial expansion depends on the relative orientation of the two CMEs. Reconnection between the two ejecta and between the ejecta and the interplanetary magnetic field (IMF) determines the type of structure resulting from the interaction. When a CME with a high inclination with respect to the ecliptic overtakes one with a low inclination, it is possible to create a compound event with a smooth rotation in the magnetic field vector over more than 180 degrees. Due to reconnection, the second CME only appears as an extended "tail", and the event may be mistaken for a glancing encounter with an isolated CME. This configuration differs significantly from the one usually studied of a multiple-magnetic cloud event, which we found to be associated with the interaction of two CMEs with the same orientation.
