description: Consider the Navier-Stokes flow past a rotating obstacle with a general time-dependent angular velocity and a time-dependent outflow condition at infinity. After rewriting the problem on a fixed domain, one obtains a non-autonomous system of equations with unbounded drift terms. It is shown that the solution to a model problem in the whole space case $\R^d$ is governed by a strongly continuous evolution system on $L^p_σ(\R^d)$ for $1

Subjects: learning technology, innovation procurement, LEA web page

description: A web page for the LEA project was developed at the beginning phase of the

project in order to ensure LEA’s public visibility right from the start and to kick-off

T6.1. Communication with the LEARNTECH community. The website is conceived as

a tool for dissemination, which will be used to inform the interested public, find and

acquire LEA Followers, publish news and update anyone interested in the project.

The website will also serve as a storage and documentation space for all project

partners as well as evaluators of the EC. LEA-Network members will further on get

access to LEA tools via this channel, so it additionally serves as a working space for

the LEA-network.

LEA web page is a living document, which will be altered along the way as new

developments in the project occur. This is vital, as it ensures an up-to-date website

which will stay interesting to its visitors and which continuously displays the current

state of the project.
Relative state measures of correlations in bipartite quantum systems

description: Everett's concept of relative state can be viewed as a map that contains information about correlations between measurement outcomes on two quantum systems. We demonstrate how geometric properties of the relative state map can be used to develop operationally well-defined measures of the total correlation in bipartite quantum systems of arbitrary state space dimension. These measures are invariant under local unitary transformations and non-increasing under local operations. We show that some known correlation measures have a natural interpretation in terms of relative states.

Quasi-stationary states in the self-gravitating sheet model

description: We study quasi-stationary states (QSS) resulting from violent relaxation in the one-dimensional self-gravitating "sheet model", revisiting in particular the question of the adequacy of the theory of Lynden-Bell (LB) to describe them. For "waterbag" initial conditions characterized by a single phase space density, the prediction of this theory is, in this model, a function of only one parameter, which can conveniently be chosen to be the ratio of the energy to that in the degenerate limit. Studying a class of such initial conditions in which the shape of the initial waterbag is varied, we find that the LB predictions are reasonably good always in the low energy region, while at higher energies (i.e. in the non-degenerate limit) they are generally not even qualitatively correct, although certain initial conditions can still be found where they are as good as at low energy. We find notably that, in line with what has been observed by Levin et al. in some other models, when LB theory does not work the QSS are always characterized by the presence of a {\it degenerate} core, which these authors explain as the result of dynamical resonances. In short LB theory appears to be a good approximation only when violent relaxation is sufficiently "gentle", and otherwise a degenerate core-halo structure results.

description: We consider an isolated system made of two pointlike bodies interacting at a distance in the nonradiative approximation. Our framework is the covariant and a priori Hamiltonian formalism of "predictive relativistic mechanics", founded on the equal-time condition. The center of mass is rather a center of energy. Individual energies are separately conserved and the meaning of their positivity is discussed in terms of world-lines. Several results derived decades ago under restrictive assumptions are extended to the general case. Relative motion has a structure similar to that of a nonrelativistic one-body motion in a stationnary external potential, but its evolution parameter is generally not a linear function of the center-of-mass time, unless the relative motion is circular (in this latter case the motion is periodic in the center-of-mass time). Finally the case of an extreme mass ratio is investigated. When this ratio tends to zero the heavy body coincides with the center of mass provided that a certain first integral, related to the binding energy is not too large.

description: Gamma-ray telescopes in orbit around the Earth are searching for evidence of the elusive radionuclide 22Na produced in novae. Previously published uncertainties in the dominant destructive reaction, 22Na(p,g)23Mg, indicated new measurements in the proton energy range of 150 to 300 keV were needed to constrain predictions. We have measured the resonance strengths, energies, and branches directly and absolutely by using protons from the University of Washington accelerator with a specially designed beamline, which included beam rastering and cold vacuum protection of the 22Na implanted targets. The targets, fabricated at TRIUMF-ISAC, displayed minimal degradation over a ~ 20 C bombardment as a result of protective layers. We avoided the need to know the stopping power, and hence the target composition, by extracting resonance strengths from excitation functions integrated over proton energy. Our measurements revealed that resonance strengths for E_p = 213, 288, 454, and 610 keV are stronger by factors of 2.4 to 3.2 than previously reported. Upper limits have been placed on proposed resonances at 198-, 209-, and 232-keV. We have re-evaluated the 22Na(p,g) reaction rate, and our measurements indicate the resonance at 213 keV makes the most significant contribution to 22Na destruction in novae. Hydrodynamic simulations including our rate indicate that the expected abundance of 22Na ejecta from a classical nova is reduced by factors between 1.5 and 2, depending on the mass of the white-dwarf star hosting the nova explosion.

Modularity functions maximization with nonnegative relaxation facilitates community detection in networks

description: We show here that the problem of maximizing a family of quantitative functions, encompassing both the modularity (Q-measure) and modularity density (D-measure), for community detection can be uniformly understood as a combinatoric optimization involving the trace of a matrix called modularity Laplacian. Instead of using traditional spectral relaxation, we apply additional nonnegative constraint into this graph clustering problem and design efficient algorithms to optimize the new objective. With the explicit nonnegative constraint, our solutions are very close to the ideal community indicator matrix and can directly assign nodes into communities. The near-orthogonal columns of the solution can be reformulated as the posterior probability of corresponding node belonging to each community. Therefore, the proposed method can be exploited to identify the fuzzy or overlapping communities and thus facilitates the understanding of the intrinsic structure of networks. Experimental results show that our new algorithm consistently, sometimes significantly, outperforms the traditional spectral relaxation approaches.
Transport properties and asymmetric scattering in Ba$_{1-x}$K$_x$Fe$_2$As$_2$ single crystals compared to the electron doped counterparts Ba(Fe$_{1-x}$Co$_{x}$)$_{2}$As$_{2}$}

description: Resistivity, Hall effect and magnetoresistance have been investigated systematically on single crystals of Ba$_{1-x}$K$_x$Fe$_2$As$_2$ ranging from undoped to optimally doped regions. A systematic evolution of the quasiparticle scattering has been observed. It is found that the resistivity in the normal state of Ba$_{1-x}$K$_x$Fe$_2$As$_2$ is insensitive to the potassium doping concentration, which is very different from the electron doped counterpart Ba(Fe$_{1-x}$Co$_{x}$)$_{2}$As$_{2}$, where the resistivity at 300 K reduces to half value of the undoped one when the system is optimally doped. In stark contrast, the Hall coefficient R$_H$ changes suddenly from a negative value in the undoped sample to a positive one with slight K-doping, and it keeps lowering with further doping. We interpret this dichotomy due to the asymmetric scattering rate in the hole and the electron pockets with much higher mobility of the latter. The magnetoresistivity shows also a non-monotonic doping dependence indicating an anomalous feature at about 80 K to 100 K, even in the optimally doped sample, which is associated with a possible pseudogap feature. In the low temperature region, it seems that the resistivity has the similar values when superconductivity sets in disregarding the different T$_c$ values, which indicates a novel mechanism of the superconductivity. A linear feature of resistivity $ρ_{ab}$ vs. $T$ was observed just above $T_c$ for the optimally doped sample, suggesting a quantum criticality.

Enhancement and suppression of tunneling by controlling symmetries of a potential barrier

description: We present a class of 2D systems which shows a counterintuitive property that contradicts a semi classical intuition: A 2D quantum particle "prefers" tunneling through a barrier rather than traveling above it. Viewing the one particle 2D system as the system of two 1D particles, it is demonstrated that this effect occurs due to a specific symmetry of the barrier that forces excitations of the interparticle degree of freedom that, in turn, leads to the appearance of an effective potential barrier even though there is no "real" barrier. This phenomenon cannot exist in 1D.

description: The QUENCH-LOCA-5 test with pre-hydrogenated optimised ZIRLO™ claddings (≈300 wppm H) was performed according to a temperature/time-scenario typical for a LBLOCA in a German PWR with the similar parameters as the QUENCH-LOCA-3 test with fresh optimised ZIRLO™ claddings: maximal heat-up rate 8 K/s, cooling phase lasted 120 s and terminated with 3.3 g/s/rod water flooding. Significant difference was the lower temperature before the start of the transient (to decrease the dissolution of hydrides during the conditioning stage of experiment). Accordingly to this, the lower maximum temperature of 1250 K was reached on the end of the heat-up phase at elevation 950 mm (1350 K for QUENCH-LOCA-3). Tangential temperature gradient across a rod was up to 30 K on the burst onset.
Due to higher ballooning rate, the maximum blockage ratio of cooling channel (25% at 940 mm) was higher in comparison to QUENCH-L3 (21% at 923 mm). Due to moderate blockage good bundle coolability was kept for both bundles. Some rods have up to three ballooning regions for both tests. The reason is successive onset of ductile temperature threshold at different elevations.
The cladding burst occurred at temperatures between 1027 and 1151 K (QUENCH-L3: 1064 and 1188 K). The inner rod pressure relief to the system pressure during less  30 s (similar to QUENCH-L2). The average burst temperatures of 1081 K (808°C) for QUENCH-L5 is lower than  for  QUENCH-L3 (1117 K or 844°C)  due  to  lower      α-Zr→β-Zr phase transition temperature. No secondary hydrogenation was indicated for the QUENCH-L5 claddings due to very short high temperature period.
During quenching, following the high-temperature phase, no fragmentation of claddings was observed (residual strengths or ductility is sufficient).
Tensile tests at room temperature showed cladding fracture mostly due to stress concentration in the region of burst opening.
On the model-dependence of the relation between minimum-bias and inelastic proton-proton cross sections

description: The model-dependence of the relation between the inelastic and various minimum-bias proton-proton cross sections is analyzed, paying a special attention to the sensitivity of minimum-bias triggers to diffractive collisions. Concentrating on the trigger selections of the ATLAS experiment, the measured cross sections are compared to predictions of a number of hadronic Monte Carlo models used in the cosmic ray field. It is demonstrated that the ATLAS results are able to discriminate between different models and between certain theoretical approaches for soft multi-particle production. On the other hand, the strong model-dependence of the selection efficiency of the minimum-bias triggers prevents one from inferring high mass diffraction rate from the discussed data. Moreover, the measured cross sections prove to be insensitive to the production of low mass diffractive states in proton-proton collisions. Consequently, a reliable determination of the total inelastic cross section requires forward proton tracking by a dedicated experiment.

Constraining the Stellar Mass Function in the Galactic Center via Mass Loss from Stellar Collisions

Year: 2010
Subjects: subject: Astrophysics of Galaxies (astro-ph.GA)

description: The dense concentration of stars and high velocity dispersions in the Galactic centre imply that stellar collisions frequently occur. Stellar collisions could therefore result in significant mass loss rates. We calculate the amount of stellar mass lost due to indirect and direct stellar collisions and find its dependence on the present-day mass function of stars. We find that the total mass loss rate in the Galactic centre due to stellar collisions is sensitive to the present-day mass function adopted. We use the observed x-ray luminosity in the Galactic centre to preclude any present-day mass functions that result in mass loss rates $> 10^{-5} \mathrm{M_{\odot} yr^{-1}}$ in the vicinity of $\sim 1"$. For present-day mass functions of the form, $dN/dM \propto M^{-α}$, we constrain the present-day mass function to have a minimum stellar mass $\lesssim 7\mathrm{M_{\odot}}$ and a power law slope $\gtrsim 1.25$. We also use this result to constrain the initial mass function in the Galactic centre by considering different star formation scenarios.

Gamma-ray bursts afterglows in magnetized stellar winds

Subjects: subject: High Energy Astrophysical Phenomena (astro-ph.HE)

description: Recent analytical and numerical work argue that successful relativistic Fermi acceleration requires a weak magnetization of the unshocked plasma, all the more so at high Lorentz factors. The present paper tests this conclusion by computing the afterglow of a gamma-ray burst outflow propagating in a magnetized stellar wind using "ab initio" principles regarding the microphysics of relativistic Fermi acceleration. It is shown that in magnetized environments, one expects a drop-out in the X-ray band on sub-day scales as the synchrotron emission of the shock heated electrons exits the frequency band. At later times, Fermi acceleration becomes operative when the blast Lorentz factor drops below a certain critical value, leading to the recovery of the standard afterglow light curve. Interestingly, the observed drop-out bears resemblance with the fast decay found in gamma-ray bursts early X-ray afterglows.

description: Noisy quantum walks are studied from the perspective of comparing their quantumness as defined by two popular measures, measurement-induced disturbance (MID) and quantum discord (QD). While the former has an operational definition, unlike the latter, it also tends to overestimate non-classicality because of a lack of optimization over local measurements. Applied to quantum walks, we find that MID, while acting as a loose upper bound on QD, still tends to reflect correctly the trends in the behavior of the latter. However, there are regimes where its behavior is not indicative of non-classicality: in particular, we find an instance where MID increases with the application of noise, where we expect a reduction of quantumness.

The resonance parameters, the effective $ρ\toππ$ coupling constant and the resonance mass, are estimated from the $P$-wave scattering phase shift for the isospin I=1 two-pion system. The finite size formulas are employed to calculate the phase shift from the energy on the lattice. Our calculations are carried out at two quark masses, $m_π=410\,{\rm MeV}$ ($m_π/m_ρ=0.46$) and $m_π=300\,{\rm MeV}$ ($m_π/m_ρ=0.35$), on a $32^3\times 64$ ($La=2.9\,{\rm fm}$) lattice at the lattice spacing $a=0.091\,{\rm fm}$. We compare our results at these two quark masses with those given in the previous works using $N_f=2$ full QCD configurations and the experiment.

description: We analyze the existence of a dilaton in gauge theories with approximate infrared conformal symmetry. To the extent that these theories are governed in the infrared by an approximate fixed point (walking), the explicit breaking of the conformal symmetry at these scales is vanishingly small. If confinement and spontaneous chiral-symmetry breaking set in at some infrared scale, the resultant breaking of the approximate conformal symmetry can lead to the existence of a dilaton with mass parametrically small compared to the confinement scale, and potentially observable at the LHC.

description: We present the results of a CO line survey of 30 galaxies at moderate redshift (z \sim 0.2-0.6), with the IRAM 30m telescope, with the goal to follow galaxy evolution and in particular the star formation efficiency (SFE) as defined by the ratio between far-infrared luminosity and molecular gas mass (LFIR/M(H2)). The sources are selected to be ultra-luminous infrared galaxies (ULIRGs), with LFIR larger than 2.8 10^{12} Lsol, experiencing starbursts; adopting a low ULIRG CO-to-H2 conversion factor, their gas consumption time-scale is lower than 10^8 yr. To date only very few CO observations exist in this redshift range that spans nearly 25% of the universe's age. Considerable evolution of the star formation rate is already observed during this period. 18 galaxies out of our sample of 30 are detected (of which 16 are new detections), corresponding to a detection rate of 60%. The average CO luminosity for the 18 galaxies detected is L'CO = 2 10^{10} K km/s pc^2, corresponding to an average H2 mass of 1.6 10^{10} Msol. The FIR luminosity correlates well with the CO luminosity, in agreement with the correlation found for low and high redshift ULIRGs. Although the conversion factor between CO luminosity and H2 mass is uncertain, we find that the maximum amount of gas available for a single galaxy is quickly increasing as a function of redshift. Using the same conversion factor, the SFEs for z\sim 0.2-0.6 ULIRGs are found to be significantly higher, by a factor 3, than for local ULIRGs, and are comparable to high redshift ones. We compare this evolution to the expected cosmic H2 abundance and the cosmic star formation history.

description: We propose a phenomenological QCD sum rule with an explicit diquark field to investigate the essential ingredients inside the hadrons. Introducing the mass (m_ϕ) and the condensate (ϕ^2) for the diquark field as parameters in the model, we find that the sum rule works well for Lambda, Lambda_c and Lambda_b. This implies that these Lambda baryons can be represented by a diquark and a quark configuration. We also find that there is a duality relation among the parameters (m_ϕ, ϕ^2), for which the sum rule is equally good. In the limit when ϕ^2 =0 we find m_ϕ=0.4 GeV, which can be thought as the constituent diquark mass.

description: The statistics of isothermal lines and loops of the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) radiation on the sky map is studied and the fractal structure is confirmed in the radiation temperature fluctuation. We estimate the fractal exponents, such as the fractal dimension $D_{\mathrm{e}}$ of the entire pattern of isothermal lines, the fractal dimension $D_{\mathrm{c}}$ of a single isothermal line, the exponent $ζ$ in Korčak's law for the size distribution of isothermal loops, the two kind of Hurst exponents, $H_{\mathrm{e}}$ for the profile of the CMB radiation temperature, and $H_{\mathrm{c}}$ for a single isothermal line. We also perform fractal analysis of two artificial sky maps simulated by a standard model in physical cosmology, the WMAP best-fit $Λ$ Cold Dark Matter ($Λ$CDM) model, and by the Gaussian free model of rough surfaces. The temperature fluctuations of the real CMB radiation and in the simulation using the $Λ$CDM model are non-Gaussian, in the sense that the displacement of isothermal lines and loops has an antipersistent property indicated by $H_{\mathrm{e}} \simeq 0.23 < 1/2$.

description: We prove homological stability for sequences of "oriented configuration spaces" as the number of points in the configuration goes to infinity. These are spaces of configurations of n points in a connected manifold M of dimension at least 2 which 'admits a boundary', with labels in a path-connected space X, and with an orientation: an ordering of the points up to even permutations. They are double covers of the corresponding unordered configuration spaces, where the points do not have this orientation. To prove our result we adapt methods from a paper of Randal-Williams, which proves homological stability in the unordered case. Interestingly the oriented configuration spaces stabilise more slowly than the unordered ones: the stability slope we obtain is one-third, compared to one-half in the unordered case (these are the best possible slopes in their respective cases). This result can also be interpreted as homological stability for unordered configuration spaces with certain twisted coefficients.

description: Spinor and twistor formulations of tensionless bosonic strings in 4-dimensional Minkowski space are constructed. We begin with a first-order action that is equivalent to the Nambu-Goto action in the tensionful case and that leads to a spinorial action in the tensionless case. From this spinorial action, we find an alternative spinorial action useful for constructing a simple twistor formulation of tensionless strings. The twistor formulation is steadily constructed in accordance with a fundamental concept of twistor theory. We investigate local internal symmetries inherent in the twistorial action for a tensionless string and carry out some classical analyses of the tensionless string expressed in a twistorial form.

description: The Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer is an X-ray observatory measuring the X-ray polarization in the 2-8 keV energy range. Highly sensitive to the system's geometry, X-ray polarization is a unique method to probe the structure of X-ray binaries. The Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer observed the High-Mass X-ray Binary Cygnus X-1 and the Low-Mass X-ray Binary Swift J1727.8-1613 in different accretion states: in the hard state and in the soft state. The X-ray polarimetry analysis of both sources shows a linear polarization degree increasing with energy, with higher values in the hard state than in the soft state. However, the linear polarization angle stays similar in both states and is aligned with the radio jet within $5^\circ$. Furthermore, the Low-Mass X-ray Binary Swift J1727.8-1613 has a lower optical intrinsic polarization and a lower X-ray polarization degree for a softer spectrum. The similarities observed in this analysis between the X-ray polarization results of different types of X-ray Binaries show that the innermost accretion processes are independent of the companion star's type.

description: A general form of the Hamiltonian for electrons confined to a curved one-dimensional (1D) channel with spin-orbit coupling (SOC) linear in momentum is rederived and is applied to a U-shaped channel. Discretizing the derived continuous 1D Hamiltonian to a tight-binding version, the Landauer-Keldysh formalism (LKF) for nonequilibrium transport can be applied. Spin transport through the U-channel based on the LKF is compared with previous quantum mechanical approaches. The role of a curvature-induced geometric potential which was previously neglected in the literature of the ring issue is also revisited. Transport regimes between nonadiabatic, corresponding to weak SOC or sharp turn, and adiabatic, corresponding to strong SOC or smooth turn, is discussed. Based on the LKF, interesting charge and spin transport properties are further revealed. For the charge transport, the interplay between the Rashba and the linear Dresselhaus (001) SOCs leads to an additional modulation to the local charge density in the half-ring part of the U-channel, which is shown to originate from the angle-dependent spin-orbit potential. For the spin transport, theoretically predicted eigenstates of the Rashba rings, Dresselhaus rings, and the persistent spin-helix state are numerically tested by the present quantum transport calculation.

description: Surgical simulation has demonstrated its potential to improve surgeons’ performance through practice. However, surgeons need to be engaged in a challenging way which can only be achieved through a realistic practice. The aim of this research project is to develop a hybrid simulator for laparoscopic bile duct exploration using ultrasound. During a laparoscopy, the surgeon can only observe the surgery through a camera, for this reason, it is possible to enhance the visual realism through images processing of the video.
Power Hardware-in-the-Loop Emulation of Permanent Magnet Synchronous Machines with Nonlinear Magnetics - Concept & Verification

description: This paper presents a power hardware-in-the-loop emulation test bench (PHIL), based on a modular multiphase multilevel converter (MMPMC), to mimic arbitrary permanent magnet synchronous machines with nonlinear magnetics as they are used in automotive applications. Measurements in stationary operation as well as high dynamic torque steps are conducted at a real automotive machine and precisely reproduced at the PHIL system to demonstrate the excellent performance of the PHIL test bench. Moreover, the superiority of a PHIL test bench over conventional motor test benches is proven by the unproblematic emulation of a blocking rotor or a cracking shaft.

description: We have performed comprehensive set of shell model calculations for Ga isotopes including high-spin states with three different effective interactions. This work will add more information in the earlier work by Cheal {\it et al.} for odd-even Ga isotopes [ Phys. Rev. Lett. 104, 252502 (2010)] and Mané {\it et al.} for odd-odd Ga isotopes [ Phys. Rev. C 84, 024303 (2011)], where only few excited states are studied in $f_{5/2}pg_{9/2}$ space. For lighter isotopes $fpg$ interaction is better and for heavier isotopes jj44b is quantitatively better than JUN45. These results show that limitation of existing interactions and calling for further improvements to predict nuclear structure properties of Ga isotopes.

description: We report detailed very low temperature resistivity measurements on the heavy fermion compounds Ce_{1-x}La_{x}CoIn5 (x=0 and x=0.01), with current applied in two crystallographic directions [100] (basal plane) and [001] (perpendicular to the basal plane) under magnetic field applied in the [001] or [011] direction. We found a Fermi liquid (ρ\propto T^{2}) ground state, in all cases, for fields above the superconducting upper critical field. We discuss the possible location of a field induced quantum critical point with respect to Hc2(0), and compare our measurements with the previous reports in order to give a clear picture of the experimental status on this long debated issue.

For love or money : harnessing environmental values and financial incentives to promote conservation stewardship
Creators: name: Olmsted, Paige
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2017

description: Despite broad agreement that large scale funding is needed to address the severe risks associated with habitat loss and ecosystem service degradation, financial and market-based interventions have brought substantial division in the conservation sector. This dissertation examines the values and attitudes associated with financial mechanisms and incentives, considering diverse groups with different relationships to natural landscapes: Costa Rican farmers, North American tourists in Costa Rica, and potential conservation donors. Despite diverse barriers and motives for participation, this dissertation investigates the opportunity for financial mechanisms to bolster and support values associated with environmental responsibility. The first study pilots methods for assessing ‘relational values’, a concept that transcends traditional instrumental/intrinsic value divisions in linking people to ecosystems. Results suggest that relational values are distinct from standard methods of measuring ecological worldview and are predictive of farmer attitudes at the landscape level. The second study assesses environmental values and attitudes of Costa Rican farmers regarding a national payment for ecosystem services program. The study investigates a set of claims regarding the negative effects of monetary incentives associated with the idea of “motivational crowding out”. Results indicate strong environmental concern across both participants and non-participants, and finds strong correlations between relational values and a series of farming attitudes associated with lifestyle and conservation. The third study quantifies tourist preferences for specific attributes of conservation programs in Costa Rica, and explores the relationship between ecotourism and environmental values with knowledge of a prominent environmental challenge in the region. Stated interest in supporting conservation and strong environmental values presents an opportunity to leverage conservation values and increase financial support for conservation. The fourth study introduces the concept of conservation impact investing, describes the unique challenges that differentiate it from other social issues, and outlines a research agenda for paths forward. I address the potential for conservation impact investing to expand the reach and constituency of support for conservation, and the risks associated with diverting funds from traditional conservation programs. The dissertation lends support for the notion that appropriately designed incentive programs could significantly unite and expand interest and participation in conservation efforts rather than divide them.

description: We study quantum learning algorithms for quantum measurements. The optimal learning algorithm is derived for arbitrary von Neumann measurements in the case of training with one or two examples. The analysis of the case of three examples reveals that, differently from the learning of unitary gates, the optimal algorithm for learning of quantum measurements cannot be parallelized, and requires quantum memories for the storage of information.
