Perfect cheating is impossible for single-qubit position verification

June 28, 2024
Author(s)
Carl A. Miller, Yusuf Alnawakhtha
In quantum position verification, a prover certifies her location by performing a quantum computation and returning the results (at the speed of light) to a set of trusted verifiers. One of the very first protocols for quantum position verification was

Polymer-based functional surface coatings are extensively used in advanced technologies, including optics, energy, and environmental applications. Surface thermodynamic properties profoundly impact the molecular interactions that control interfacial

GPU-accelerated parallel image reconstruction strategies for magnetic particle imaging

June 24, 2024
Author(s)
Klaus Natorf Quelhas, Mark-Alexander Henn, Ricardo Farias, Weston L. Tew, Solomon I. Woods
Image reconstruction is a fundamental step in Magnetic Particle Imaging (MPI). Since it was developed, several methods have been studied to perform more efficient and accurate reconstructions. One of the challenges of MPI is the fact that the
