We experimentally demonstrate a monitoring technique for determining misalignment between the in-phase/ quadrature (I/Q) data streams and between the data and...
Fire suppression agents that derive their entire effectiveness from physical processes are known as thermal agents. Thermal agents operate by lowering the flame...
A three-dimensional Green's function for a material system containing general anisotropic and linearly elastic planar multilayers with interfacial membrane and...
From all-electron fixed-spin-moment calculations we show that ferromagnetic and checkerboard antiferromagnetic ordering in LaFeAsO are not stable and the stripe...
This article briefly describes methods to generate entanglement and implement quantum information processing with the use of trapped ions. It is intended to...
