description: Establishing secure communication links at a global scale is a major potential application of quantum information science but also extremely challenging for the underlying technology. While milestone experiments using satellite-to-ground links and exploiting singe-photon encoding for implementing quantum key distribution have shown recently that this goal is achievable, it is still necessary to further investigate practical solutions compatible with classical optical communication systems. Here we examine the feasibility of establishing secret keys in a satellite-to-ground downlink configuration using continuous-variable encoding, which can be implemented using standard telecommunication components certified for space environment and able to operate at high symbol rates. Considering a realistic channel model and state-of-the-art technology, and exploiting an orbit subdivision technique for mitigating fluctuations in the transmission efficiency, we find positive secret key rates for a low-Earth-orbit scenario, while finite-size effects can be a limiting factor for higher orbits. Our analysis determines regions of values for important experimental parameters where secret key exchange is possible and can be used as a guideline for experimental efforts in this direction.

description: The $i$swap gate is an entangling swapping gate where the qubits obtain a phase of $i$ if the state of the qubits is swapped. Here we present a simple implementation of the controlled-$i$swap gate. The gate can be implemented with several controls and works by applying a single flux pulse. The gate time is independent of the number of controls, and we find high fidelities for any number of controls. We discuss an implementation of the gates using superconducting circuits and present a realistic implementation proposal, where we have taken decoherence noise and fabrication errors on the superconducting chip in to account, by Monte Carlo simulating possible errors. The general idea presented in this paper is, however, not limited to such implementations. An exponentiation of quantum gates is desired in some quantum information schemes and we therefore also present a quantum circuit for probabilistic exponentiating the $i$swap gate and other non-Hermitian gates.

description: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of biosimilars compared with reference biological disease modifying antirheumatic drugs (bDMARDs) in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) as a part of the process of developing the 2020 update of the Japan College of Rheumatology guidelines for the management of RA. PubMed, Cochrane Library, and Japan Centra Revuo Medicina were searched for articles to conduct a systematic review (SR). The quality of evidence was assessed using the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development, and Evaluation system. Twenty randomized controlled trials were included (biosimilars of infliximab, etanercept, and adalimumab). A meta-analysis revealed that the risk ratios (RRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) of achieving the American College of Rheumatology 50% response (ACR50) at week 24 and serious adverse events (SAEs) for biosimilars compared with the reference bDMARDs were 1.04 (0.98–1.10) and 0.84 (0.61–1.18), respectively. The RRs of achieving ACR50 and SAEs at week 24 were respectively 0.93 (0.69–1.26) and 2.15 (0.55–8.35) in the patients who switched to biosimilars from the reference bDMARDs and 0.92 (0.76–1.12) and 1.41 (0.32–6.15) in those who continued the reference bDMARDs. Biosimilars and reference bDMARDs were equally useful for the management of RA.

description: We introduce a new family of quantum circuits for which the scrambling of a subspace of non-local operators is classically simulable. We call these circuits `super-Clifford circuits', since the Heisenberg time evolution of these operators corresponds to a Clifford evolution in operator space. By simulating the Clifford evolution in operator space we are able to simulate the time evolution of certain single Pauli strings into operators with an operator entanglement that grows linearly with the number of qubits. These circuits provide a new technique for studying scrambling in systems with a large number of qubits, and are an explicit counter example to the intuition that classical simulability implies the absence of scrambling.

description: The development of values-based supply chains for fish and fish products from fisheries and aquaculture is a strategy to add value to the fish. This benefit refers to the double meaning of ‘value’; premium prices for high-value products and at the same time, the incorporation of environmental, social, cultural or ethical values based on a sustainable use of resources. Although small-scale fish production and fisheries have a long tradition in many regions of the European Union, fishermen and fish farmers face strong competition with industrialized fishery fleets as well as imports from low- costs aquaculture. At the same time, European consumer surveys prove evidence that a consumers show an over- average Willingness to Pay (WTP) for fish produced locally and according to sustainability standards. With this paper, we aim to identify and discuss fish farmers’ and fishermen’s strategies ensuring the viability of their businesses by add- ing value to their fish utilizing this so far often unused market potential. Four case studies serve as the basis for the analysis. The German case studies examined traditional carp pond farming in Franconia and recirculation aquaculture systems in northern Germany. The Italian case studies focus on saline aquaculture (marine and on-shore) in Tuscany and mussel farming (inshore) in the Emilia-Romagna region. The English, Italian and Greek study cases analysed the situation of small-scale coastal fisheries in Cornwall, Tuscany and the Kavala region.

description: This paper aims to describe and analyse available data on the main components stages of the wood energy value chain in Italy, highlighting discrepancies between data about woody biomass consumption and domestic supply. Discrepancies are probably connected to informal harvesting, historically a source if raw material not easily captured by official statistics, and to the lack of information regarding the energy utilization of sources not directly connected to forest operations, like, for example, residues from industrial processing, post-consumer recovered wood and biomass from urban forests. The paper focuses on the role played by these non-forest sources. In other European countries such as Germany, France and the United Kingdom, available information gives evidence that these resources cover an important share of woody biomass sources used for energy production, while in Italy, until now, there are no reliable data on the global availability of non-forest wood resources or their utilization for energy purposes. This paper aims to understand the main factors that can influence the utilization of these sources in Italy, analysing the legislative framework and competition with other market sectors for the same raw material. At the Italian level, the competition with panel production seems to strongly limit the use of recovered material for energy purposes. As in other EU countries, data on wood processing residues are scarce and not well organized, even if the utilization of woody biomass for energy production appears to be a rather common practice.

In the limit of strong atom-atom interactions, there exist quantum phases that involve pairing of fermions with one or more bosons, or bosonic holes, respectively. We obtain the analytic form of the phase boundaries separating these composite fermion phases from the bosonic superfluid coexisting with Fermi liquid. We compare the results with numerical simulations and discuss their validity and relevance for current experiments.

description: The recent record of the number of wild ungulates in Italy shows that in some areas there is a deleterious animal density. Among the ungulates, the number of wild boars has been increasing considerably, during past decades in Italy as well as in many European countries; somewhere the number has reached the overabundance level, causing conflict between wild fauna and human activities. The implications of wild game overpopulation are manifold and mainly related to the sanitary risk and to the intensification of conflicts between agricultural practices and humans activities. As a consequence an increased compensation budget has to be allocated by local public authorities. Damages to agriculture, livestock and other economic activities catch the farmers’ attention and that of the local communities. Management authorities, however lack of an integrated approach, and often tend to adopt ex post reimbursement schemes without appropriate management plans. The wild boar population growth is likely to increase the number of requests for reimbursement that would make heavier the financial burden of public administrations up to a critical point. The present paper aims for a first definition of the potential damage. The value is assessed on the basis of a GIS definition of area where wild boars rest and on the potential damage to cultivations Outcomes will be of help for those actors involved in wild board management plans as well as for public authorities responsible for compensating wild fauna damages to human activities. Conclusions shall drive public actions in order to minimize wild boar negative effects on areas potentially affected by the highest rate of damage.

description: In this work we analyze the implementation of a control-phase gate through the resonance between the $|11\rangle$ and $|20\rangle$ states of two statically coupled transmons. We find that there are many different controls for the transmon frequency that implement the same gate with fidelities around $99.8\%$ ($T_1=T_2^{*}=17$ $μ$s) and $99.99\%$ ($T_1=T_2^{*}=300$ $μ$s) within a time that approaches the theoretical limit. All controls can be brought to this accuracy by calibrating the waiting time and the destination frequency near the $|11\rangle-|20\rangle$ resonance. However, some controls, such as those based on the theory of dynamical invariants, are particularly attractive due to reduced leakage, robustness against decoherence, and their limited bandwidth.

description: We show how a careful analysis of the behaviour of a parton shower Monte Carlo in the vicinity of the soft and collinear regions allows one to formulate a modified MC@NLO-matching prescription that reduces the number of negative-weight events with respect to that stemming from the standard MC@NLO procedure. As a first practical application of such a prescription, that we dub MC@NLO-$Δ$, we have implemented it in the MadGraph5_aMC@NLO framework, by employing the Pythia8 Monte Carlo. We present selected MC@NLO-$Δ$ results at the 13 TeV LHC, and compare them with MC@NLO ones. We find that the former predictions are consistent with the latter ones within the typical matching systematics, and that the reduction of negative-weight events is significant.

description: The present work reports the application of 1,3,5-tris(4-methoxyphenyl)-1,3,5-triazinane for the inhibition of X60 steel corrosion in 3.5% NaCl saturated with CO2. The compound was synthesized using a facile ultrasonic irradiation method, and for the first time, a comparative analysis of the static and hydrodynamic conditions was performed. The results of open circuit potential (OCP) vs. time and the potentiodynamic polarization are presented herein. The inhibitor showed a better performance (>97% efficiency) in the hydrodynamic conditions compared to the static conditions (>90% efficiency). The OCP vs. time results indicated a negative shift of the potential with inhibitor, revealing a primarily cathodic-type mechanism. Potentiodynamic polarization showed that the introduction of the triazine derivative significantly lowered the corrosion current densities suggesting that the inhibitor acted by adsorption and exhibited a mixed type of inhibition behavior with predominance of cathodic effect. The inhibitor adsorption on the steel surface followed the Langmuir isotherm.

Year: 2003
Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)

description: Surface reconstructions of active close binary stars based on photometric and spectroscopic observations reveal non-uniform starspot distributions, which indicate the existence of preferred spot longitudes (with respect to the companion star). We consider the equilibrium and linear stability of toroidal magnetic flux tubes in close binaries to examine whether tidal effects are capable to initiate the formation of rising flux loops at preferred longitudes near the bottom of the stellar convection zone. The tidal force and the deviation of the stellar structure from spherical symmetry are treated in lowest-order perturbation theory assuming synchronised close binaries with orbital periods of a few days. The frequency, growth time, and spatial structure of linear eigenmodes are determined by a stability analysis. We find that, despite their small magnitude, tidal effects can lead to a considerable longitudinal asymmetry in the formation probability of flux loops, since the breaking of the axial symmetry due to the presence of the companion star is reinforced by the sensitive dependence of the stability properties on the stellar stratification and by resonance effects. The orientation of preferred longitudes of loop formation depends on the equilibrium configuration and the wave number of the dominating eigenmode. The change of the growth times of unstable modes with respect to the case of a single star is very small.

description: The Tuscan Region spends about 12 million euro every year in the prevention and suppression of forest fires. In this context, this study aims to verify the economic and environmental benefits derived from the activities of the prevention and suppression of fires. Starting from a case study of a real fire event in Tuscany, we have simulated three hypothetical scenarios (with different fire durations) without fire extinction activities planned. These hypothetical scenarios have been obtained using the open source software FARSITE, and georeferred data concerning meteorological data, territory and forest characteristics were used to run the three simulations. A monetary approach to the quantification of avoided damage thanks to fire extinction activities has been applied. Quantification of the economic avoided damage has been calculated through the estimation of the total economic value of forest destroyed by fire. Total economic value is represented by the value of economic and environmental benefits provided by the forest (ecosystem services). Total economic values of forest surfaces burned by real event and simulated fire have been calculated: the difference between these values represent the avoided damages (from an environmental point of view) thanks to fire extinction activities. The completely avoided damage was calculated in a second phase by considering the real estate values of buildings that the extinction activities had protected and safeguarded. The results achieved confirm how forest fire services and forest management are important from both economic and environmental points of view.

On the nature of eclipses in binary pulsar J0737-3039

description: We consider magnetohydrodynamical interaction between relativistic pulsar wind and static magnetosphere in binary pulsar system PSR J0737-3039. We construct semi-analytical model describing the form of the interface separating the two pulsars. An assumption of vacuum dipole spin down for Pulsar B leads to eclipse duration ten times longer than observed. We discuss possible Pulsar B torque modification and magnetic field estimates due to the interaction with Pulsar A wind. Unless the orbital inclination is $\leq 86 ^\circ$, the duration of eclipses is typically shorter than the one implied by the size of the eclipsing region. We propose that eclipses occur due to synchrotron absorption by mildly relativistic particles in the shocked Pulsar A wind. The corresponding optical depth may be high enough if Pulsar A wind density is at the upper allowed limits. We derive jump conditions at oblique, relativistic, magnetohydrodynamical shocks and discuss the structure of the shocked Pulsar A wind. Finally, we speculate on a possible mechanism of orbital modulation of Pulsar B radio emission.

description: An anaesthetic serves as an agent capable of inducing either local or general loss of sensation, thereby mitigating pain. The term anaesthesia finds its roots in two Greek words, with "an" signifying "without" and "aesthesis" meaning "sensation". The integration of anaesthetics in medical and surgical practices proves pivotal, facilitating procedures without inflicting undue distress or discomfort. The inherent susceptibility of fish to stress during handling and transport underscores the necessity of anaesthetic intervention.

description: Autonomous vehicles (AVs) must share space with pedestrians, both in carriageway cases such as cars at pedestrian crossings and off-carriageway cases such as delivery vehicles navigating through crowds on pedestrianized high-streets. Unlike static obstacles, pedestrians are active agents with complex, interactive motions. Planning AV actions in the presence of pedestrians thus requires modelling of their probable future behaviour as well as detecting and tracking them. This narrative review article is Part I of a pair, together surveying the current technology stack involved in this process, organising recent research into a hierarchical taxonomy ranging from low-level image detection to high-level psychology models, from the perspective of an AV designer. This self-contained Part I covers the lower levels of this stack, from sensing, through detection and recognition, up to tracking of pedestrians. Technologies at these levels are found to be mature and available as foundations for use in high-level systems, such as behaviour modelling, prediction and interaction control.

The Pit : strategic proposal

description: The following report aims to give a situational analysis and, ultimately, recommend strategic operational changes to help address performance headwinds face by the newly renovated Pit Pub. Since its reintroduction in the new AMS Nest, The Pit has been struggling to meet its profit targets which is a stark contrast to the performance of the legacy location. While not an exhaustive list, we believe the primary culprits of these headwinds are as follows: traffic cannibalization from The Gallery, the decision to discontinue food and shorten hours of operations, and, most importantly, an overall lack of differentiation other than Pit Nights. In short, our strategic recommendations revolve around positioning The Pit as a modern sports bar to differentiate itself from adjacent pubs. This goes beyond simply playing games on screens, rather it is about establishing a culture that makes The Pit come to mind first when students consider where to watch a game. Due to its already open layout, abundance of screen space and audio set-up, we believe necessary changes to the venue, such as the addition of sports memorabilia and games tables, will be minimal and thus will not require much up-front investment. However, what will require a fair amount of resources is the expansion of The Pits marketing efforts. A key finding from our diligence process, and large contributor to the differentiation issue, is The Pit’s lack of effective marketing strategy. For example, 70% of students surveyed had no idea that The Pit stopped serving food or even knew it brought back food in the first place. This finding reaffirms our belief that The Pit has become complacent in its marketing efforts, leaning only on the historical success of Wednesday’s Pit Nights. Moreover, we believe that part of this complacency may be in part the result of where the marketing decision making occurs. Because marketing decisions occur at the AMS level we believe there may be agency issues overlapping with The Gallery, as well as a lack of responsiveness due to the bureaucracy that comes with a larger organization. Past our initial recommendations, a key step in the long term success in a new marketing strategy would be delegating marketing responsibilities to someone at The Pit level who understands the changing wants of its customer base.

Non-Equilibrium Interaction Between Catalytic Colloids: Boundary Conditions and Penetration Depth

description: Spherical colloids that catalyze the interconversion reaction $A \leftrightharpoons B$ between solute molecules $A$ and $B$ whose concentration at infinity is maintained away from equilibrium effectively interact due to the non-uniform fields of solute concentrations. We show that this long range $1/r$ interaction is suppressed via a mechanism that is superficially reminiscent but qualitatively very different from electrostatic screening: catalytic activity drives the concentrations of solute molecules towards their equilibrium values and reduces the chemical imbalance that drives the interaction between the colloids. The imposed non-equilibrium boundary conditions give rise to a variety of geometry-dependent scenarios; while long-range interactions are suppressed (except for a finite penetration depth) in the bulk of the colloid solution in 3D, they can persist in quasi-2D geometry in which the colloids but not the solutes are confined to a surface, resulting in the formation of clusters or Wigner crystals, depending on the sign of the interaction between colloids.

Atmospheric Erosion by Giant Impacts onto Terrestrial Planets

description: We examine the mechanisms by which atmosphere can be eroded by giant impacts onto Earth-like planets with thin atmospheres, using 3D smoothed particle hydrodynamics simulations with sufficient resolution to directly model the fate of low-mass atmospheres. We present a simple scaling law to estimate the fraction lost for any impact angle and speed in this regime. In the canonical Moon-forming impact, only around 10% of the atmosphere would have been lost from the immediate effects of the collision. There is a gradual transition from removing almost none to almost all of the atmosphere for a grazing impact as it becomes more head-on or increases in speed, including complex, non-monotonic behaviour at low impact angles. In contrast, for head-on impacts, a slightly greater speed can suddenly remove much more atmosphere. Our results broadly agree with the application of 1D models of local atmosphere loss to the ground speeds measured directly from our simulations. However, previous analytical models of shock-wave propagation from an idealised point-mass impact significantly underestimate the ground speeds and hence the total erosion. The strong dependence on impact angle and the interplay of multiple non-linear and asymmetrical loss mechanisms highlight the need for 3D simulations in order to make realistic predictions.
