Crystallisation of biological macromolecules is seen by most structural biologists as a necessary evil, a means to the end, which is knowledge about a

Pulse Metrology, Part II

Author(s)
Nicholas G. Paulter Jr., Donald R. Larson
Pulse metrology refers to the science of the measurement of pulses, which are transient phenomena. This article describes concepts important for pulse metrology

Quantum Algorithms for Quantum Field Theories

Author(s)
Stephen P. Jordan, Keith S. Lee, John Preskill
Quantum field theory reconciles quantum mechanics and special relativity, and plays a central role in many areas of physics. We develop a quantum algorithm to

Calibration of Laminar Flow Meters for Process Gases
