We describe a novel technique for creating an artificial magnetic field for ultra-cold atoms using a periodically pulsed pair of counter propagating Raman

Local Randomness: Examples and Application

Author(s)
Honghao Fu, Carl Miller
When two players achieve a superclassical score at a nonlocal game, their outputs must contain intrinsic randomness. This fact has many useful implications for

Spin currents and spin-orbit torques in ferromagnetic trilayers

Zeid Kootbally, Craig I. Schlenoff, Brian Antonishek, Frederick M. Proctor, Thomas Kramer, William Harrison, Satyandra K. Gupta
For the most part, robots perform best in highly structured environments, where objects are in well-known, predictable loca-tions. Another way to describe this

Introduction: Special Issue on Enabling Robot Autonomy

Author(s)
Craig I. Schlenoff, Stephen B. Balakirsky, Henrik I. Christensen
Today's state-of-the-art robots are capable of sub-millimeter movement accuracy when performing highly repeatable tasks. They perform extremely well in highly
