The purpose of the present paper is to consider the traditional interpretive problems of quantum mechanics from the viewpoint of a modal ontology of properties. In particular, we will try to delineate a quantum ontology ...

Digital health increasingly relies on artificial intelligence for clinical decision-making, patient management, and distributed learning, yet two persistent challenges remain: the computational complexity of optimization...

The sensory perceptions of vision and sound may be considered as complementary doorways towards interpreting and understanding physical phenomena. We provide a few selected samples where scientific data of systems usuall...

Verlinde has recently conjectured, via a Beckenstein-like thought experiment, that gravitation, instead of being an elementary force, is an emergent entropic one. This rather surprising conjecture was actually proved in ...

The concept of individuality in quantum mechanics shows radical differences from the concept of individuality in classical physics, as E. Schrödinger pointed out in the early steps of the theory. Regarding this fact, so...

A reminder, a review and a look toward the future pros‐ pects for quantum dot-sensitized solar cells — a reminder of the highly viable, energy-efficient solar cells achievable; a review of ground-breaking devices and...

The influence of Au nanorods coated with a silica layer on the photoluminescence (PL) of CdTe quantum dots (QDs) was investigated. The Au nanorods were prepared using a seed-mediated method. They were coated with a silic...

Modern communication environments ranging from smart mobility infrastructures to digitally integrated health care systems demand adaptable and trustworthy network security. In this situation, software-defined networks (S...

Recent developments in quantum photonics have initiated the process of bringing photonic-quantumbased systems out-of-the-lab and into real-world applications. As an example, devices to enable the exchange of a cryptograp...

We present the design for a novel type of dual-band photodetector in the thermal infrared spectral range, the Optically Controlled Dual-band quantum dot Infrared Photodetector (OCDIP). This concept is based on a quantum ...

Abstract This paper offers a novel argument for fatalism: if one accepts the logical possibility of fatalism, one must accept that fatalism is true. This argument has a similar structure to the ‘knowability paradox’,...

We consider a system of composite bosons given by strongly bound fermion pairs tunneling through sites that form a low-dimensional network. It has been shown that the ground state of this system can have condensatelike p...

Entanglement is a fundamental feature of quantum mechanics and a key resource for quantum information processing. Among multipartite entangled states, Dicke states $|D_n^k\rangle$ are distinguished by their permutation s...

Reactive oxygen species (ROS, ·OH, ·OOH, and O₂) are ubiquitous in urban environments and may significantly accelerate asphalt pavement aging, yet their interactions with asphalt components remain poorly understood. ...

The “Wigner’s Friend” thought experiment stands as one of the most intellectually provocative and challenging conceptual puzzles in quantum mechanics. It compels us to confront profound questions concerning the fun...

We present a characterization of the set of nonsignaling correlations in terms of a two-dimensional representation that involves the maximal value of a Bell functional and the mutual information between the parties. In p...

In this article I intend to show that certain aspects of A.N. Whitehead's philosophy of organism and especially his epochal theory of time, as mainly exposed in his well-known work Process and Reality, can serve in clari...

The purpose of this work is, first, to present a fast and accurate technique to compute Boltzmann-averaged values of the quantum-chemical 13C chemical shifts for each amino acid in oligopeptides, demonstrated here by an ...

Abstract Confinement epitaxy beneath graphene stabilizes exotic material phases by restricting vertical growth and altering lateral diffusion, conditions unattainable on bare substrates. However, achieving long-range int...

In this study, we evaluated a nanoscale random rubbed structure (nRRS) used as a scattering layer in organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) through an innovative manufacturing method. The rubbing technique, which is conve...

Abstract The interplay between strong electronic correlations, unconventional superconductivity, and symmetry-protected topology provides a fertile ground for discovering exotic quantum states. In this work, we investiga...

Abstract Predictive atomistic simulations have propelled materials discovery, yet routine setup and debugging still demand computer specialists. This know-how gap limits the use of Integrated Computational Materials Engi...
