Universal quantum control in two-electron spin quantum bits using
Universal quantum control in two-electron spin quantum bits using

... Achieving universal control and prolonging coherence of quantum bits remain some of the most challenging topics in spin-based quantum computation. Logical quantum bits, constructed out of two or more physical quantum bits, can be designed to prolong coherence by operating in a subspace that is less ...

Is Quantum Indeterminism Relevant to Free Will?

... Assuming a non-physical force of the mind by means of which the total energy or the total momentum of the brain (or other bodily organs) is changed is a high price to pay for interactionism. Consider vitalism as an analogy: the assumption of a new force in living organisms contributed much to the do ...

... The functions f (x) and A(k) are a Fourier transform pair. Complete knowledge of one of the pair yields the other through an analytic transform, thus they have identical information content. They are just different representations of the same function. Note carefully that both f (x) and A(k) are, in ...

... believe in the particle nature of light. Einstein, for example, explained the photoelectric effect in terms of the particle nature of light, and obtained a noble prize for it. So is light made up of particles or is it a wave? The answer is very beautifully contained in the words of Richard Feynman—o ...

... that this letter of Dirac (1929) announces a monumental change in physical theory. The simple problem of the scattering of a photon on an electron is no longer a 2-body problem. It is recognised to be an infinite body problem. The same thing happens in every process. For instance, this was demonstra ...

If the other slit is opened and the first one closed, one sees only the diffraction pattern from the other slit (P2). If both are opened, one does not simply see the sum of P1 and P ...

Renormalization group



In theoretical physics, the renormalization group (RG) refers to a mathematical apparatus that allows systematic investigation of the changes of a physical system as viewed at different distance scales. In particle physics, it reflects the changes in the underlying force laws (codified in a quantum field theory) as the energy scale at which physical processes occur varies, energy/momentum and resolution distance scales being effectively conjugate under the uncertainty principle (cf. Compton wavelength).A change in scale is called a ""scale transformation"". The renormalization group is intimately related to ""scale invariance"" and ""conformal invariance"", symmetries in which a system appears the same at all scales (so-called self-similarity). (However, note that scale transformations are included in conformal transformations, in general: the latter including additional symmetry generators associated with special conformal transformations.)As the scale varies, it is as if one is changing the magnifying power of a notional microscope viewing the system. In so-called renormalizable theories, the system at one scale will generally be seen to consist of self-similar copies of itself when viewed at a smaller scale, with different parameters describing the components of the system. The components, or fundamental variables, may relate to atoms, elementary particles, atomic spins, etc. The parameters of the theory typically describe the interactions of the components. These may be variable ""couplings"" which measure the strength of various forces, or mass parameters themselves. The components themselves may appear to be composed of more of the self-same components as one goes to shorter distances.For example, in quantum electrodynamics (QED), an electron appears to be composed of electrons, positrons (anti-electrons) and photons, as one views it at higher resolution, at very short distances. The electron at such short distances has a slightly different electric charge than does the ""dressed electron"" seen at large distances, and this change, or ""running,"" in the value of the electric charge is determined by the renormalization group equation.
