The concept is frequently used ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ in physics, chemistry, and biochemistry, e.g. to describe all possible conformations of a molecular ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ entity, or the spatial positions of interacting molecules in a system, or parameters and their ​ ​ ​ corresponding energy levels, typically Gibbs free energy. Geometrically, the energy landscape is the ​ ​ graph of the energy function across the configuration space of the system. The term is also used ​ ​ ​ more generally in geometric perspectives to mathematical optimization, when the domain of the loss ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ function is the parameter space of some system. ​ ​ ​ Applications[e​dit]​ ​ The term is useful when examining protein folding; while a protein can theoretically exist in a nearly ​ ​ infinite number of conformations along its energy landscape, in reality proteins fold (or "relax") into secondary and tertiary structures that possess the lowest possible free energy. The key concept in ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ the energy landscape approach to protein folding is the folding funnel hypothesis. ​ ​ ​ ​ 10 In catalysis, when designing new catalysts or refining existing ones, energy landscapes are ​ ​ considered to avoid low-energy or high-energy intermediates that could halt the reaction or demand excessive energy to reach the final products.[1] ​ In glassing models, the local minima of an energy landscape correspond to metastable low ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ [2][3] temperature states of a thermodynamic system. ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ [4] In machine learning, artificial neural networks may be analyzed using analogous approaches. ​ For ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ example, a neural network may be able to perfectly fit the training set, corresponding to a global ​ ​ minimum of zero loss, but overfitting the model ("learning the noise" or "memorizing the training ​ ​ ​ ​ set"). Understanding when this happens can be studied using the geometry of the corresponding energy landscape.[5] ​ Formal definition[​edit​] Mathematically, an energy landscape is a continuous function X=>R associating each physical state ​ ​ with an energy, where X is a topological space. ​ ​ In the continuous case, X=R^N, where N is the number of degrees of freedom of the system.

  • The Fine Structure of the Parathyroid Gland*

    The Fine Structure of the Parathyroid Gland*

    The Fine Structure of the Parathyroid Gland* BY JERRY STEVEN TRIER, M.D. (From the Department of Anatomy, University of Washington School of Medicine, Seattle) PLATES 3 TO 10 (Received for publication, July 29, 1957) ABSTRACT The fine structure of the parathyroid of the macaque is described, and is cor- related with classical parathyroid cytology as seen in the light microscope. The two parenchymal cell types, the chief cells and the oxyphil cells, have been recognized in electron mierographs. The chief cells contain within their cyto- plasm mitochondria, endoplasmic reticulum, and Golgi bodies similar to those found in other endocrine tissues as well as frequent PAS-positive granules. The juxtanuclear body of the light microscopists is identified with stacks of parallel lamellar elements of the endoplasmic rcticulum of the ergastoplasmic or granular type. Oxyphll cells are characterized by juxtanuclear bodies and by numerous mito- chondria found throughout their cytoplasm. Puzzling lamellar whorls are described in the cytoplasm of some oxyphil cells. The endothelium of parathyroid capillaries is extremely thin in some areas and contains numerous fenestrations as well as an extensive system of vesicles. The possible significance of these structures is discussed. The connective tissue elements found in the perivascular spaces of macaque parathyroid are described. INTRODUCTION Other contributions to the present concepts con cerning the human parathyroid can be found in the It is the purpose of the present paper to report some observations on the fine structure of the reports of Bergstrand (7), Morgan (34), Pappen- parathyroid gland employing the electron micro- heimer and Wilens (45), Castleman and Mallory (10), and Gilmour (20).
  • Electrical Characterisation of Ion Implantation Induced Defects in Silicon Based Devices for Quantum Applications

    Electrical Characterisation of Ion Implantation Induced Defects in Silicon Based Devices for Quantum Applications

    Electrical Characterisation of Ion Implantation Induced Defects in Silicon Based Devices for Quantum Applications Aochen Duan Supervised by Professor Jeffrey C. McCallum and Doctor Brett C. Johnson School of Physics The University of Melbourne Australia 1 Abstract Quantum devices that leverage the manufacturing techniques of silicon-based classical computers make them strong candidates for future quantum computers. However, the demands on device quality are much more stringent given that quantum states can de- cohere via interactions with their environment. In this thesis, a detailed investigation of ion implantation induced defects generated during device fabrication in a regime relevant to quantum device fabrication is presented. We identify different types of defects in Si using various advanced electrical characterisation techniques. The first experimental technique, electrical conductance, was used for the investigation of the interface state density of both n- and p-type MOS capacitors after ion implantation of various species followed by a rapid thermal anneal. As precise atomic placement is critical for building Si based quantum computers, implantation through the oxide in fully fabricated devices is necessary for some applications. However, implanting through the oxide might affect the quality of the Si/SiO2 interface which is in close proximity to the region in which manipulation of the qubits take place. Implanting ions in MOS capacitors through the oxide is a model for the damage that might be observed in other fabricated devices. It will be shown that the interface state density only changes significantly after a fluence of 1013 ions/cm2 except for Bi in p-type silicon, where significant increase in interface state density was observed after a fluence of 1011 Bi/cm2.

The protocol by Knill, Laflamme and Milburn [Nature 409, 46 (2001)] explicitly demonstrates that efficient scalable quantum computing with single photons, linear optical elements, and projec- tive measurements is possible. Subsequently, several improvements on this protocol have started to bridge the gap between theoretical scalability and practical implementation. We review the original proposal and its improvements, and we give a few examples of experimental two-qubit gates. We discuss the use of realistic components, the errors they induce in the computation, and how they can be corrected. PACS numbers: 03.67.Hk, 03.65.Ta, 03.65.Ud Contents References 36 I.

During the twentieth century several " ghrelin different cell types were described in the islets of different species and at different " islet developmental stages. Six cell types with identified hormonal product have been described " ghrelin cell so far by the use of histochemical staining methods, transmission electron microscopy, " pancreas and immunohistochemistry. Thus, glucagon-producing a-cells, insulin-producing b-cells, " human somatostatin-producing d-cells, pancreatic polypeptide-producing PP-cells, serotonin- " rat producing enterochromaffin-cells, and gastrin-producing G-cells have all been found in the " mouse mammalian pancreas at least at some developmental stage. Species differences are at hand " diabetes and age-related differences are also to be considered. Eleven years ago a novel cell type, " development the ghrelin cell, was discovered in the human islets. Subsequent studies have shown the presence of islet ghrelin cells in several animals, including mouse, rat, gerbils, and fish. The developmental regulation of ghrelin cells in the islets of mice has gained a lot of interest and several studies have added important pieces to the puzzle of molecular mechanisms and the genetic regulation that lead to differentiation into mature ghrelin cells.

    Encoding an oscillator into many oscillators Kyungjoo Noh,1, 2, ∗ S. M. Girvin,1, 2 and Liang Jiang1, 2, y 1Departments of Applied Physics and Physics, Yale University, New Haven, Connecticut 06520, USA 2Yale Quantum Institute, Yale University, New Haven, Connecticut 06520, USA Gaussian errors such as excitation losses, thermal noise and additive Gaussian noise errors are key challenges in realizing large-scale fault-tolerant continuous-variable (CV) quantum information processing and therefore bosonic quantum error correction (QEC) is essential. In many bosonic QEC schemes proposed so far, a finite dimensional discrete-variable (DV) quantum system is encoded into noisy CV systems. In this case, the bosonic nature of the physical CV systems is lost at the error-corrected logical level. On the other hand, there are several proposals for encoding an infinite dimensional CV system into noisy CV systems. However, these CV-into-CV encoding schemes are in the class of Gaussian quantum error correction and therefore cannot correct practically relevant Gaussian errors due to established no-go theorems which state that Gaussian errors cannot be corrected by Gaussian QEC schemes. Here, we work around these no-go results and show that it is possible to correct Gaussian errors using GKP states as non-Gaussian resources. In particular, we propose a family of non-Gaussian quantum error-correcting codes, GKP-repetition codes, and demonstrate that they can correct additive Gaussian noise errors. In addition, we generalize our GKP-repetition codes to an even broader class of non-Gaussian QEC codes, namely, GKP-stabilizer codes and show that there exists a highly hardware-efficient GKP-stabilizer code, the two-mode GKP-squeezed-repetition code, that can quadratically suppress additive Gaussian noise errors in both the position and momentum quadratures.

Quantum error correction is currently considered to be an extremely impor- tant area of quantum computing as any physically realisable quantum computer will need to contend with the issues of decoherence and other quantum noise. A number of tech- niques have been developed that provide some protection against these problems, which will be discussed. 1. Introduction It has been realised that the quantum mechanical behaviour of matter at the atomic and subatomic scale may be used to speed up certain computations. This is mainly due to the fact that according to the laws of quantum mechanics particles can exist in a superposition of classical states. A single bit of information can be modelled in a number of ways by particles at this scale. This leads to the notion of a qubit (quantum bit), which is the quantum analogue of a classical bit, that can exist in the states 0, 1 or a superposition of the two. A number of quantum algorithms have been invented that provide considerable improvement on their best known classical counterparts, providing the impetus to build a quantum computer.
