description: Transparency has gained much relevance in food chains. This paper summarizes the determinants of transparency and points out that transparency in the sense of effective information exchange needs trust as a mediator in order to become a powerful tool in supply chain management. In addition to that this paper analyses the characteristics of trust and highlights the reciprocal and dynamic mechanisms of trust on transparency and vice versa. It is argued that both constructs should be enhanced at the same time in order to realize the benefits of trust and transparency on supply chain management.

description: We establish a correspondence between a class of Wilson-'t Hooft lines in four-dimensional $\mathcal{N} = 2$ supersymmetric gauge theories described by circular quivers and transfer matrices constructed from dynamical L-operators for trigonometric quantum integrable systems. We compute the vacuum expectation values of the Wilson-'t Hooft lines in a twisted product space $S^1 \times_ε\mathbb{R}^2 \times \mathbb{R}$ by supersymmetric localization and show that they are equal to the Wigner transforms of the transfer matrices. A variant of the AGT correspondence implies an identification of the transfer matrices with Verlinde operators in Toda theory, which we also verify. We explain how these field theory setups are related to four-dimensional Chern-Simons theory via embedding into string theory and dualities.

description: The very low frequency (VLF) regime below 30 MHz in the electromagnetic spectrum has presently drawing global attentions in radio astronomical research due to its potentially significant science outcomes exploring many unknown extragalactic sources, transients, and so on. However, the non-transparency of the Earth's ionosphere, ionospheric distortion and artificial radio frequency interference (RFI) have made it difficult to detect the VLF celestial radio emission with ground-based instruments. A straightforward solution to overcome these problems is a space based VLF radio telescope, just like the VLF radio instruments onboard the Chang'E 4 spacecraft. But building such a space telescope would be inevitably costly and technically challenging. The alternative approach would be then a ground based VLF radio telescope. Particularly, in the period of post 2020 when the solar and terrestrial ionospheric activities are expected to be in a 'calm' state, it will provide us a good chance to perform VLF ground-based radio observations. Anticipating such an opportunity, we built an agile VLF radio spectrum explorer co-located with the currently operational Mingantu Spectra Radio Heliograph (MUSER). The instrument includes four antennas operating in the VLF frequency range 1-70 MHz. Along with them, we employ an eight-channel analog and digital receivers to amplify, digitize and process the radio signals received by the antennas. We present in the paper this VLF radio spectrum explorer and the instrument will be useful for celestial studies of VLF radio emissions.

Ideal Fermi gases in harmonic oscillator potential traps

Subjects: subject: Statistical Mechanics (cond-mat.stat-mech)

description: We study the thermodynamic properties of an ideal gas of fermions in a harmonic oscillator confining potential. The analogy between this problem and the de Haas-van Alphen effect is discussed and used to obtain analytical results for the chemical potential and specific heat in the case of both isotropic and anisotropic potentials. Step-like behaviour in the chemical potential, first noted in numerical studies, is obtained analytically and shown to result in an oscillatory behaviour of the specific heat when the particle number is varied. The origin of these oscillations is that part of the thermodynamic potential responsible for the de Haas-van Alphen-type effect. At low temperatures we show analytically that there are significant deviations in the specific heat from the expected linear temperature dependence, again as a consequence of the de Haas-van Alphen part of the thermodynamic potential. Results are given for one, two, and three spatial dimensions. In the anisotropic case we show how the specific heat jumps as the ratio of oscillator frequencies varies.

description: The decision-making of indigenous Ibaloi and Kankanaey growers in seven highland communities of Benguet, Cordillera region Philippines was captured in three models. The models explain factors affecting their selection of primary transacting partners. The farmers' three main primary marketing links are commissioners, wholesalers and contractors. Commissioner-led governance structures are market-based and the relationship is motivated by profit. Wholesaler-led governance structures are partly-market and partly-hybrid-based and are characterized by the motivations of profit, relationship and safeguard benefits. Contractor-led transactions are hybrid modes of organization that are motivated strongly by trust. In governance structure selection, farmers attempt to balance expected profit and relationship factors in their choice.

description: This article summarizes and extends the recent developments in the microscopic modeling of the magnetic excitations in cuprate two-leg ladder systems. The microscopic Hamiltonian comprises dominant Heisenberg exchange terms plus an additional four-spin interaction which is about five times smaller. We give an overview over the relevant energies like the one-triplon dispersion, the energies of two-triplon bound states and the positions of multi-triplon continua and over relevant spectral properties like spectral weights and spectral densities in the parameter regime appropriate for cuprate systems. It is concluded that an almost complete understanding of the magnetic excitations in undoped cuprate ladders has been obtained as measured by inelastic neutron scattering, inelastic light (Raman) scattering and infrared absorption.

Models for Light-Cone Meson Distribution Amplitudes

Year: 2005
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Phenomenology (hep-ph)

description: Leading-twist distribution amplitudes (DAs) of light mesons like pi,rho etc. describe the leading nonperturbative hadronic contributions to exclusive QCD reactions at large energy transfer, for instance electromagnetic form factors. They also enter B decay amplitudes described in QCD factorisation, in particular nonleptonic two-body decays. Being nonperturbative quantities, DAs cannot be calculated from first principles, but have to be described by models. Most models for DAs rely on a fixed order conformal expansion, which is strictly valid for large factorisation scales, but not always sufficient in phenomenological applications. We derive models for DAs that are valid to all orders in the conformal expansion and characterised by a small number of parameters which are related to experimental observables.

description: We investigate the non-linear transport processes and hydrodynamization of a system of gluons undergoing longitudinal boost-invariant expansion. The dynamics is described within the framework of the Boltzmann equation in the small-angle approximation. The kinetic equations for a suitable set of moments of the one-particle distribution function are derived. By investigating the stability and asymptotic resurgent properties of this dynamical system, we demonstrate, that its solutions exhibit a rather different behavior for large (UV) and small (IR) effective Knudsen numbers. Close to the forward attractor in the IR regime the constitutive relations of each moment can be written as a multiparameter transseries. This resummation scheme allows us to extend the definition of a transport coefficient to the non-equilibrium regime naturally. Each transport coefficient is renormalized by the non-perturbative contributions of the non-hydrodynamic modes. The Knudsen number dependence of the transport coefficient is governed by the corresponding renormalization group flow equation. An interesting feature of the Yang-Mills plasma in this regime is that it exhibits transient non-Newtonian behavior while hydrodynamizing. In the UV regime the solution for the moments can be written as a power-law asymptotic series with a finite radius of convergence. We show that radius of convergence of the UV perturbative expansion grows linearly as a function of the shear viscosity to entropy density ratio. Finally, we compare the universal properties in the pullback and forward attracting regions to other kinetic models including the relaxation time approximation and the effective kinetic Arnold-Moore-Yaffe (AMY) theory.

Climatic effects on life-history in the hazel dormouse Muscardinus avellanarius
Creators: name: Findlay-Robinson, Rachel
Publisher: name: Lancaster University
Year: 2021

description: Effects of climate change on individual life-history have been documented in many species, and can affect individual fitness and population dynamics. However, population-level consequences of such effects are rarely considered in conservation plans. Here, I combine field studies and long-term data analysis to examine both direct and indirect effects of climate on life-history in a declining hibernator, the hazel dormouse Muscardinus avellanarius. Rates of change in temperature across the preceding active and hibernation season were positively associated with the parturition timing, whilst rate of change of rainfall were negatively associated. Parturition timing is known to be negatively associated with fitness, and is influenced by body condition at emergence. These results suggest warmer winters and cooler springs negatively affect energy retention during hibernation leading to later parturition. Dormice may be able to mitigate such effects through hibernation site selection, as microclimatic conditions might differ from macroclimatic conditions. However, air temperature did not appear to influence hibernation nest site selection. Higher mean soil temperatures, low daily variation in relative humidity and low variation in relative shortwave radiation were positively associated with the probability of hibernation nest presence but were not associated with dormouse overwinter activity. High levels of pre-hibernation fattening could also mitigate the detrimental energetic effects of warmer winters. However, fruiting in seven key dormouse autumn food plants has advanced substantially, suggesting potential for a trophic mismatch between food availability and the post-weaning, pre-hibernation fattening period. The findings of this thesis demonstrate multiple routes by which climate can affect the life-history of small hibernating mammals, and provide evidence of detrimental effects of climate change on the UK’s hazel dormouse populations. Integration of life-history research into conservation programmes has the potential to improve future conservation success both for hazel dormice and other species worldwide.

description: Законодательство субъектов Российской Федерации требует систематизации. Выбор способов упорядочения зависит от правовой политики региональных органов государственной власти. Нормативно-правовые комплексы республик, краев, областей, автономий, созданные с начала 1990-х годов, существенно отличаются как предметом регулирования, так и эффективностью правовых норм. Наиболее развитые правовые системы защиты прав коренных малочисленных народов созданы в Республике Саха (Якутия) и Ямало-Ненецком автономном округе. В обоих субъектах Российской Федерации ведется работа над кодификацией правового регулирования, а выбор соответствующего способа систематизации обосновывается как достаточной научной теоретической базой, так и решением практических задач правовой идеологии и реализации права, в том числе усилением эффективности правоприменения.
description: The legislation the federal subjects of the Russian Federation requires systematization. The choice of ways to systematize the legislation differs and depends on the legal policy of regional government bodies. The regulatory and legal complexes of republics, krais, oblasts, autonomies, created in the early nineties, differ both in the subject of regulation and in the effectiveness of legal norms. The most developed legal systems for protecting the rights of indigenous peoples have been created in the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia) and the Yamalo-Nenets Autonomous Okrug. In both subjects are working on the codification of legal regulation. The choice of the appropriate method of systematization is justified both by a sufficient theoretical background and by solving practical problems of legal ideology and the implementation of the law, including increasing the efficiency of law enforcement.

description: For a locally presentable abelian category $\mathsf B$ with a projective generator, we construct the projective derived and contraderived model structures on the category of complexes, proving in particular the existence of enough homotopy projective complexes of projective objects. We also show that the derived category $\mathsf D(\mathsf B)$ is generated, as a triangulated category with coproducts, by the projective generator of $\mathsf B$. For a Grothendieck abelian category $\mathsf A$, we construct the injective derived and coderived model structures on complexes. Assuming Vopenka's principle, we prove that the derived category $\mathsf D(\mathsf A)$ is generated, as a triangulated category with products, by the injective cogenerator of $\mathsf A$. More generally, we define the notion of an exact category with an object size function and prove that the derived category of any such exact category with exact $κ$-directed colimits of chains of admissible monomorphisms has Hom sets. In particular, the derived category of any locally presentable abelian category has Hom sets.

description: We present a detailed account of the physics of Vanadium sesquioxide (${\rm V_2O_3}$), a benchmark system for studying correlation induced metal-insulator transition(s). Based on a detailed perusal of a wide range of experimental data, we stress the importance of multi-orbital Coulomb interactions in concert with first-principles LDA bandstructure for a consistent understanding of the PI-PM MIT under pressure. Using LDA+DMFT, we show how the MIT is of the orbital selective type, driven by large changes in dynamical spectral weight in response to small changes in trigonal field splitting under pressure. Very good quantitative agreement with ($i$) the switch of orbital occupation and ($ii$) S=1 at each $V^{3+}$ site across the MIT, and ($iii$) carrier effective mass in the PM phase, is obtained. Finally, using the LDA+DMFT solution, we have estimated screening induced renormalisation of the local, multi-orbital Coulomb interactions. Computation of the one-particle spectral function using these screened values is shown to be in excellent quantitative agreement with very recent experimental (PES and XAS) results. These findings provide strong support for an orbital-selective Mott transition in paramagnetic ${\rm V_2O_3}$.

description: Modelling the mass distributions of strong gravitational lenses is often necessary to use them as astrophysical and cosmological probes. With the high number of lens systems ($>10^5$) expected from upcoming surveys, it is timely to explore efficient modeling approaches beyond traditional MCMC techniques that are time consuming. We train a CNN on images of galaxy-scale lenses to predict the parameters of the SIE mass model ($x,y,e_x,e_y$, and $θ_E$). To train the network, we simulate images based on real observations from the HSC Survey for the lens galaxies and from the HUDF as lensed galaxies. We tested different network architectures, the effect of different data sets, and using different input distributions of $θ_E$. We find that the CNN performs well and obtain with the network trained with a uniform distribution of $θ_E$ $>0.5"$ the following median values with $1σ$ scatter: $Δx=(0.00^{+0.30}_{-0.30})"$, $Δy=(0.00^{+0.30}_{-0.29})" $, $Δθ_E=(0.07^{+0.29}_{-0.12})"$, $Δe_x = -0.01^{+0.08}_{-0.09}$ and $Δe_y = 0.00^{+0.08}_{-0.09}$. The bias in $θ_E$ is driven by systems with small $θ_E$. Therefore, when we further predict the multiple lensed image positions and time delays based on the network output, we apply the network to the sample limited to $θ_E>0.8"$. In this case, the offset between the predicted and input lensed image positions is $(0.00_{-0.29}^{+0.29})"$ and $(0.00_{-0.31}^{+0.32})"$ for $x$ and $y$, respectively. For the fractional difference between the predicted and true time delay, we obtain $0.04_{-0.05}^{+0.27}$. Our CNN is able to predict the SIE parameters in fractions of a second on a single CPU and with the output we can predict the image positions and time delays in an automated way, such that we are able to process efficiently the huge amount of expected lens detections in the near future.

description: Mastitis is a major economically important disease manifested in clinical and subclinical forms among dairy animals. This study aimed to isolate the mastitiscausing bacteria, their prevalence, and associated risk factors of subclinical mastitis (SCM) with their antibiogram. This study was conducted from July 2017 to May 2019 in Western Chitwan, Nepal. Approximately 10 ml milk samples were collected from each quarter in a sterilized bottle from 340 cows. The California Mastitis test (CMT) was performed for screening of mastitis, which was followed by immediate bacteriological culture in both Nutrient Agar (NA) and Selectivemedia [Mannitol Salt Agar (MSA), Eosin Methylene Blue (EMB) Agar, Mac Conkey Agar], Grams’ staining, and confirmatory biochemical test for respective organisms. The results from CMT revealed that the prevalence of SCM was 41.47% (141/340). The biochemical cultural characteristics found that the most common Staphylococcus (39.01%) followed by E. coli (23.40%), Streptococcus (17.73%), and others unidentified (19.85%). The statistical analysis shows a non-significant association between breed, stage of lactation, milk yield, farming system, and prevalence of SCM among dairy cattle. Antibiogram profile indicated that tetracycline (80.3%) was the most effective drug followed by ceftriaxone (70.5%), Gentamicin (59.0%), and Enrofloxacin (44.3%). In conclusion, there was a high prevalence of subclinical mastitis in western Chitwan. Mastitis pathogens develop resistance against ampicillin. Further studies are required to develop alternative control strategies for mastitis in Nepal
The Tufuga’s fale tele : constructing social relations in the samoan built environment
Creators: name: Taylor, Jennet Catherine

Year: 2009

description: Social structure is an important influence on the arrangement and construction of the traditional fale tele (guest house) in Western Samoa. Architecture and constructed spaces are physical manifestations and expressions of culturally defined social structures and cosmologies. Social relationships are also defined by constructed space. In Samoa, social status and relationships are manifested in the fale tele (round guest house). In this thesis, I examine the spatial orientation of the traditional fale tele in the family compound and the idealized Samoan village, and how these constructions reflect the traditional social structure and ordering of the community. One of the most important and ritually defined relationships, between the commissioning taufale (owner of house) and the tufuga fa'ifale (Master Carpenter), is created and defined by the construction of a fale tele. I discuss the ways in which the most ritualized use of the fale tele, for the fono (village council), is defined by the constructed space of the tufuga'?, fale tele. I also discuss how significant social changes over the last fifty years have impacted and been incorporated into the built environment.

description: Bohm-Bell processes, of interest in the foundations of quantum field theory, form a class of Markov processes $Q_t$ generalizing in a natural way both Bohm's dynamical system in configuration space for nonrelativistic quantum mechanics and Bell's jump process for lattice quantum field theories. They are such that at any time $t$ the distribution of $Q_t$ is $|ψ_t|^2$ with $ψ$ the wave function of quantum theory. We extend this class here by introducing the analogous Markov process for quantum mechanics on a graph (also called a network, i.e., a space consisting of line segments glued together at their ends). It is a piecewise deterministic process whose innovations occur only when it passes through a vertex.

description: Bodies in relative motion, spatially separated in vacuum, experience a tiny friction force known as quantum friction. This force has eluded experimental detection so far due to its small magnitude and short range. Herein, we give quantitative details so as to track traces of the quantum friction by measuring coherences in the atom. We notice that the environmentally induced decoherence can be decomposed into contributions of different signature: corrections induced by the electromagnetic vacuum in presence of the dielectric sheet and those induced by the motion of the particle. In this direction, we show that non-contact friction enhances the decoherence of the moving atom. Further, its effect can be enlarged by a thorough selection of the two-level particle and the Drude-Lorentz parameters of the material. In this context, we suggest that measuring decoherence times through velocity dependence of coherences could indirectly demonstrate the existence of quantum friction.

Θα αναλύσουμε την θεωρία της καθώς και τους ορισμούς της. Η μέθοδος Chain Ladder χρησιμοποιείται για την πρόβλεψη του μελλοντικού αποθέματος που χρειάζεται για την κάλυψη των ζημιών, οι οποίες έχουν συμβεί αλλά δεν έχουν ανακοινωθεί και αυτές που έχουν ανακοινωθεί αλλά δεν έχουν εξοφληθεί. Είναι η πιο δημοφιλής μέθοδος για την αποθεματοποίηση των ζημιών (claims reserve) καθώς εκτιμώνται οι αποζημιώσεις που αναμένεται να γίνουν με την χρήση ιστορικών δεδομένων. Κυρίως προβλέπει τις αποζημιώσεις που έχουν γίνει αλλά δεν έχουν ανακοινωθεί (IBNR) και το τελικό ποσό ζημιάς που θα προκύψει. Θα παρατηρήσουμε την γενικευμένη μορφή της Chain Ladder μεθόδου καθώς και διάφορες επεκτάσεις της. Όπως για παράδειγμα μια εκδοχή της σε ένα Poisson μοντέλο ή τον συνδυασμό της με την μέθοδο Bornheutter – Ferguson. Επίσης, πως μπορούν να εισχωρήσουν οι διαγώνιες επιδράσεις στις ασφαλίσεις ζημιών που βασίζονται σε τρίγωνα εξέλιξης. Ακόμα, θα παρουσιαστεί ένα στοχαστικό μοντέλο σύνθετης Poisson που περιλαμβάνει την καθυστέρηση από τη στιγμή που προκύπτει μια απαίτηση και μέχρι την αναφορά της (καθυστέρηση IBNR) και την καθυστέρηση από τη στιγμή που αναφέρεται μια απαίτηση και μέχρι την πλήρη εξόφληση (η καθυστέρηση RBNS). Τέλος, θα παρουσιάσουμε ένα στοχαστικό μοντέλο συμπλέγματος Poisson που αποσκοπεί στην πρόβλεψη των αριθμών των αποζημιώσεων και των συνολικών ποσών των αποζημιώσεων για ένα έτος.

description: We report sub-arcsecond resolution IRAM PdBI millimeter CO interferometry of four z~2 submillimeter galaxies (SMGs), and sensitive CO (3-2) flux limits toward three z~2 UV-/optically selected star forming galaxies. The new data reveal for the first time spatially resolved CO gas kinematics in the observed SMGs. Two of the SMGs show double or multiple morphologies, with complex, disturbed gas motions. The other two SMGs exhibit CO velocity gradients of ~500 km/s across 0.2 arcsec (1.6 kpc) diameter regions, suggesting that the star forming gas is in compact, rotating disks. Our data provide compelling evidence that these SMGs represent extreme, short-lived 'maximum' star forming events in highly dissipative mergers of gas rich galaxies. The resulting high mass surface and volume densities of SMGs are similar to those of compact quiescent galaxies in the same redshift range, and much higher than those in local spheroids. From the ratio of the comoving volume densities of SMGs and quiescent galaxies in the same mass and redshift ranges, and from the comparison of gas exhaustion time scales and stellar ages, we estimate that the SMG phase duration is about 100 Myrs. Our analysis of SMGs and optically/UV selected high redshift star forming galaxies supports a 'universal' Chabrier IMF as being valid over the star forming history of these galaxies. We find that the 12CO luminosity to total gas mass conversion factors at z~2-3 are probably similar to those assumed at z~0. The implied gas fractions in our sample galaxies range from 20 to 50%.

description: A phenomenological analysis of various decay processes is performed in order to test the large $N_c$ Chiral Perturbation Theory predictions for the octet and singlet pseudoscalar decay constants and mixing angles. The results obtained hint at a disagreement with the expectations of this theoretical framework although the statistical significance is still limited.

description: Based on the recently measurements of the $e^{+} e^{-} \to Σ^{+} \barΣ^{-}$ and $e^{+} e^{-} \to Σ^{-} \barΣ^{+}$ processes, the electromagnetic form factors of the hyperon $Σ^+$ and $Σ^-$ in the timelike region are investigate by using the vector meson dominance model. We have included the contributions from the $ρ$, $ω$ and $ϕ$ mesons. The model parameters are determined with the BESIII experimental data on the timelike effective form factors $|G_{\rm eff}|$ of $Σ^{+}$ and $Σ^{-}$ for center-of-mass energy from 2.3864 to 3.02 GeV. Then, we analytically continue the electromagnetic form factors to spacelike region and evaluate the spacelike form factors of $Σ^+$ and $Σ^-$. The obtained electromagnetic form factors of the $Σ^+$ and $Σ^-$ baryons are comparable with other model calculations.

description: A comparative study of near-maximum-light optical spectra of 24 Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) is presented. The spectra are quantified in two ways, and assigned to four groups. Seven "core-normal" SNe Ia have very similar spectra, except for strong high-velocity CaII absorption in SN 2001el. Seven SNe Ia are assigned to a "broad-line" group, the most extreme of which is SN 1984A. Five SNe Ia, including SN 1991bg, are assigned to a "cool" group. Five SNe Ia, including SN 1991T, are assigned to a "shallow-silicon" group. Comparisons with SYNOW synthetic spectra provide a basis for discussion of line identifications, and an internally consistent quantification of the maximum-light spectroscopic diversity among SNe Ia. The extent to which SN Ia maximum-light spectra appear to have a continuous distribution of properties, rather than consisting of discrete subtypes, is discussed.

description: В процессе подготовки театрализованных представлений создаются результаты интеллектуальной деятельности, к которым в соответствии с российским законодательством применяются разные правовые режимы. Однако значение терминов, используемых в отношении соответствующих творческих результатов, законодательно не раскрывается, что приводит к смешению понятий при правоприменении. В статье понятия «драматическое произведение», «спектакль» и «постановка» рассматриваются как отдельные результаты творческой деятельности, обращается внимание на характеризующие их особенности. При проведении исследования проблемных вопросов, касающихся театральных объектов, применяются формально-логический метод и метод системности. Проводится сравнительный анализ основных характеристик творческих объектов театральной деятельности. Анализируются права, признаваемые за создателями охраняемых результатов и организаторами театральной деятельности. Подчеркивается важность определения принадлежности исключительных прав на создаваемые в процессе театральной деятельности объекты и условий их передачи или предоставления.
description: In the process of preparing theatrical performances, the results of intellectual activity are created, to which, under Russian legislation, different legal regimes are applied. However, the meaning of the terms used concerning the corresponding creative results is not defined by law, which leads to confusion of concepts in law enforcement. The article considers a dramatic work, a play, and a production separate results of creative activity and the features that characterize them. The formal and logical methods and systemic analysis are used to study issues related to theater objects. A comparative analysis of the main characteristics of creative objects of theatrical activity is carried out. The author analyzes the rights recognized for the creators of the protected intellectual property and the managers of theatrical activities. The importance of determining the ownership of exclusive rights to objects created in the process of theatrical activity and the conditions for their transfer or provision is emphasized.

description: Purpose: Reported ear and hearing difficulties (rEHD) are known to be associated with reading difficulties as well as mental health problems. In this study, we aim to examine the relationship between reading and mental health in children with rEHD.Method: In this study, we used structural equation modeling to measure the strength of longitudinal relationships between reading and mental health–related variables in children with rEHD—aged 5–11 years—in four large longitudinal databases from the United Kingdom (n = 5,254), the United States (ns = 1,541 and 6,401), and Australia (n = 2,272). We then compared these relationships to those measured in children with typical development.Results and Conclusions: For children with rEHD, we found that attention at age 5 years was related to later reading at age 7 years, which in turn was related to later behavior, attention, anxiety, bullying, and reading self-concept at age 9 years. These relationships did not differ to those measured in children with typical development, which supports the replicability and, hence, reliability of these longitudinal relationships in children regardless of hearing status.Supplemental Material S1.

description: Several emerging quantum technologies, including quantum networks, modular and fusion-based quantum computing, rely crucially on the ability to perform photonic Bell state measurements. Therefore, photon losses and the 50\% success probablity upper bound of Bell state measurements pose a critical limitation to photonic quantum technologies. Here, we develop protocols that overcome these two key challenges through logical encoding of photonic qubits. Our approach uses a tree graph state logical encoding, which can be produced deterministically with a few quantum emitters, and achieves near-deterministic logical photonic Bell state measurements while also protecting against errors including photon losses, with a record loss-tolerance threshold.
