Robust Sliding Mode Control for Tokamaks
(Hindawi Publishing Corporation, 2012)
Nuclear fusion has arisen as an alternative energy to avoid carbon dioxide emissions, being the tokamak a promising nuclear fusion reactor that uses a magnetic field to confine plasma in the shape of a torus. However, ...
Internationalisation, multilingualism and English-medium instruction: the teacher's perspective
(Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2011)
[EN]In the newEuropean higher education space, Universities in Europe are exhorted to cultivate and develop multilingualism. The European Commission’s 2004–2006 action plan for promoting language learning and diversity ...
A quantitative witness for Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger entanglement
(Nature Publishing Group, 2012-12)
Along with the vast progress in experimental quantum technologies there is an increasing demand for the quantification of entanglement between three or more quantum systems. Theory still does not provide adequate tools for ...
Iridescent Cellulose Nanocrystal Films: the Link Between Structural Colour and Bragg's Law
(Iop Publishing, 2018-04-30)
Structural colour is a phenomenon found in nature, which provides plants and animals with vibrant optical properties. The production of this colour is based on the interaction of incident light with the hierarchical ...
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 ...
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 ...
Quantum Artificial Life in an IBM Quantum Computer
(Nature Publishing, 2018-10-04)
We present the first experimental realization of a quantum artificial life algorithm in a quantum computer. The quantum biomimetic protocol encodes tailored quantum behaviors belonging to living systems, namely, self-replication, ...
Quantum Memristors With Superconducting Circuits
(Nature Publishing Group, 2017-02-14)
Memristors are resistive elements retaining information of their past dynamics. They have garnered substantial interest due to their potential for representing a paradigm change in electronics, information processing and ...
