The Effect of the Laser Incidence Angle in the Surface of L-PBF Processed Parts
(MDPI, 2020-10-24)
The manufacture of multiple parts on the same platform is a common procedure in the Laser Powder Bed Fusion (L-PBF) process. The main advantage is that the entire working volume of the machine is used and a greater number ...
The Origins of Peter's Pence
(Oxford University Press, 2019-06-08)
Peter’s Pence began as an annual donation from England to the papacy. It was later taken up more widely and lasted until the Reformation in England, but its beginnings are much murkier. This article reassesses the earliest ...
Synucleinopathy alters nanoscale organization anddiffusion in the brain extracellular space throughhyaluronan remodeling
(Nature, 2020-07-10)
In recent years, exploration of the brain extracellular space (ECS) has made remarkable progress, including nanoscopic characterizations. However, whether ECS precise conformation is altered during brain pathology remains ...
Measurement-Based Adaptation Protocol with Quantum Reinforcement Learning in a Rigetti Quantum Computer
(MDPI, 2020-05-19)
We present an experimental realisation of a measurement-based adaptation protocol with quantum reinforcement learning in a Rigetti cloud quantum computer. The experiment in this few-qubit superconducting chip faithfully ...
Special Issue “Olfaction: From Genes to Behavior”
(MDPI, 2020-06-15)
The senses dictate how the brain represents the environment, and this representation is the basis of how we act in the world [...]
Presenilin1 familial Alzheimer disease mutants inactivate EFNB1- and BDNF-dependent neuroprotection against excitotoxicity by affecting neuroprotective complexes of N-methyl-d-aspartate receptor
(Oxfor University Press, 2020-07-20)
Excitotoxicity is thought to play key roles in brain neurodegeneration and stroke. Here we show that neuroprotection against excitotoxicity by trophic factors EFNB1 and brain-derived neurotrophic factor (called here factors) ...
Microfluidic chip with pillar array for controlled production and observation of lipid membrane nanotubes
(RSC, 2020-06-29)
Lipid membrane nanotubes (NTs) are a widespread template for in vitro studies of cellular processes happening at high membrane curvature. Traditionally NTs are manufactured one by one, using sophisticated membrane ...
Multiqubit and multilevel quantum reinforcement learning with quantum technologies
(Public Library Science, 2018-07-19)
We propose a protocol to perform quantum reinforcement learning with quantum technologies. At variance with recent results on quantum reinforcement learning with superconducting circuits, in our current protocol coherent ...
Quantum Simulation Of The Quantum Rabi Model In A Trapped Ion
(American Physical Society, 2018-04-30)
The quantum Rabi model, involving a two-level system and a bosonic field mode, is arguably the simplest and most fundamental model describing quantum light-matter interactions. Historically, due to the restricted parameter ...
Invited Article: Quantum Memristors in Quantum Photonics
(American Institute Of Physics, 2018-08)
We propose a method to build quantum memristors in quantum photonic platforms. We first design an effective beam splitter, which is tunable in real time, by means of a Mach-Zehnder-type array with two equal 50:50 beam ...
