Increasing Temperature

We study the entanglement dynamics of two entangled spins coupled with a common environment consisting of a large number of harmonic oscillators. Specifically, we study the impacts of both interaction and temperature of the environment on the dynamic quantum correlation, namely, entanglement and quantum discord of two spins via concurrence and global quantum discord criteria. In the present system, we show that the interaction between the spin sub-systems and the common environment causes environmental states to approach a composition of even and odd coherent states, which have different phases, and which are entangled with the spin states. Moreover, using the thermofield approach, we demonstrate quantum correlation stabilization as a result of increasing environmental interaction as well as increasing temperature.

The Impact

When Alice and Bob share two pairs of quantum correlated states, Alice can remotely prepare quantum entanglement and quantum discord in Bob’s side by measuring the parts in her side and telling Bob the measurement results by classical communication. For remote entanglement preparation, entanglement is necessary . We find that for some shared resources having the same amount of entanglement, when Bell measurement is used, the entanglement remotely prepared can be different, and more discord in the resources actually decreases the entanglement prepared. We also find that for some resources with more entanglement, the entanglement remotely prepared may be less. Therefore, we conclude that entanglement is a necessary resource but may not be the only resource responsible for the entanglement remotely prepared, and discord does not likely to assist this process. Also, for the preparation of discord, we find that some states with no entanglement could outperform entangled states.

Magnetic Resonance Spectra

Proton magnetic resonance spectra at 220 MHz of alanine transfer RNA do not permit assignments of individual peaks due to each of the common bases; only a peak attributable to protons at position eight in adenine can be assigned with certainty. Measurements of the relative areas of proton magnetic resonance peaks due to the base and ribose-1′ protons indicate that the ribose moieties of tRNA are not involved in bonds stronger than those experienced by the bases. Proton magnetic resonance peaks attributable to the methyl and dihydro protons of the rare bases can be distinguished in the 220 MHz spectra; the variation of their line widths and chemical shifts with increasing temperature indicates that the rare bases are located in regions of the alanine transfer RNA molecule which are more highly organized than indicated by an open cloverleaf model.

Atomic Entanglement

In this work, we study the dynamics of three entangled atoms coupled to a common structured reservoir. The atoms are initially prepared in different W-like states characterized by different relative phases. We examine the roles of initial relative phases on the energy transfers among the individual atoms as well as atomic entanglement dynamics. We show that the features of quantum interferences induced by initial relative phases greatly affect the energy transfers and entanglement dynamics. In particular, a suitable choice of initial phases can increase atomic stationary entanglement over their initial value. The results imply a possible control strategy for atomic entanglement dynamics.

Event Based

This paper introduces an event-based decentralized control scheme for the cooperation between multiple manipulators. This is in contrast to the common practice of using only centralized controls for such cooperation which, consequently, greatly limit the flexibility of robotic systems. The manipulators used in the present system are very simple with only two degrees of freedom, while even one of them is passive. Moreover these manipulators use very few and commonly available sensors only. Computer simulations indicated the applicability of the event-based decentralized control scheme for multi-manipulator cooperation, while real-life experimental implementation has proved that the proposed decentralized control scheme is fairly applicable for very simple and even under-actuated systems too. Hence, this work has opened new doors towards further research in this area. The proposed control scheme is expected to be equally applicable for any mobile or immobile multi-robotic system.

AbstractThe flowers of the common poppy are used for medicinal purposes, both internally and externally. They are reported to have antispasmodic and antitussive properties, to alleviate inflammatory conditions and soothe anxiety-related digestive problems. The aim of the study was to determine the antioxidant potential and the content of vitamin C, polyphenols, and minerals in infusions made from the petals of the common poppy at different temperatures. The infusions were made at various temperatures (25 °C, 70 °C, 80 °C, and 90 °C). The antioxidant potential and the content of polyphenols and vitamin C were determined by spectrophotometric methods. The mineral content was determined using the ICP-OES method. The total polyphenol content ranged from 135.2 to 137.24 ppm and that of vitamin C—from 15.47 to 15.78 mg/100 mL. The temperature of the water used to make the infusions did not appear to have a significant effect on these parameters. The temperature did, however, significantly affect the antioxidant potential of the infusions—the highest antioxidant activity (71.21% DPPH inhibition) was observed in the infusion prepared using water at 80 °C. The infusions included in the study contained a number of minerals. No significant effect of temperature was found for the content of K, Zn, Cu, Fe, and Ni in the infusions. On the other hand, the content of Ca in the infusions was significantly correlated with the increasing temperature of the water. It was concluded that poppy petal infusions may serve as a valuable dietary supplement, providing antioxidants and minerals required by the human body to function properly.

In assessing the reliability of a system of components, it is usual to suppose the components to fail independently of each other. Often this is inappropriate because the common environment acting on all components induces correlation. For example, a harsh environment will encourage early failure of all components. A simple model that incorporates such dependencies is described, and several properties of this model investigated. Calculations are carried out for a parallel system of two components. Inequalities for multicomponent systems are suggested. The results generalize easily.

In order to measure the quantum correlation of a bipartite state quickly, an easy method is to construct a test matrix through the commutations among the blocks of its density matrix. Then, the Frobenius norm of the test matrix can be used to measure the quantum correlation. In this paper, we apply the measurement by Frobenius norm ([Formula: see text] to the dynamics evolution of the non-Markovian quantum system and compare it with the typical quantum discord ([Formula: see text] proposed by Ollivier and Zurek. The research results show that [Formula: see text] can indeed measure the quantum correlation of a bipartite state as same as [Formula: see text]. Further studies find that there are still differences between the two measurements: in some regions, when [Formula: see text] is zero, [Formula: see text] is not zero. It indicates that [Formula: see text] is more detailed than [Formula: see text] to measure quantum correlation of a bipartite state.

Entangled Coherent States

A quantum error-correcting code is established in entangled coherent states (CSs) with Markovian and non-Markovian environments. However, the dynamic behavior of these optical states is discussed in terms of quantum correlation measurements, entanglement and discord. By using the correcting codes, these correlations can be as robust as possible against environmental effects. As the number of redundant CSs increases due to the repetitive error correction, the probabilities of success also increase significantly. Based on different optical field parameters, the discord can withstand more than an entanglement. Furthermore, the behavior of quantum discord under decoherence may exhibit sudden death and sudden birth phenomena as functions of dimensionless parameters.

Abstract As a universal quantum character of quantum correlation, the freezing phenomenon is researched by geometry and quantum discord methods, respectively. In this paper, the properties of Rènyi discord is studied for two independent Dimer System coupled to two correlated Fermi-spin environments under the non-Markovian condition. We further demonstrate that the freezing behaviors still exist for Rènyi discord and study the effects of different parameters on this behaviors.

Abstract Peirce holds that our logic should be the basis for our metaphysics. He also thinks that facts and propositions are structurally isomorphic. However, unlike many theorists who take propositions such as snow is white and grass is green as their paradigmatic examples, Peirce takes it rains (Latin: pleurit) and similar propositions as his paradigmatic examples. I explore how his analysis of such propositions and the way in which they convey meaning becomes more complex from 1895 to 1909, how this impacts his metaphysics, and how he can claim that something like the common environment of two interlocutors can itself be an index.
