... A calculus-based introduction to mechanics and thermodynamics. Fundamental principles such as energy and momentum conservation are stressed. The development of problem-solving skills is also emphasized. This is a required course for physics, chemistry, biology, and preengineering majors. Lecture and ...

Delayed-choice gedanken experiments and their realizations
... remarked that one can place the observer not in the image plane, as originally intended, but in the focal plane of the microscope. This constitutes a measurement not of the electron’s position but of its momentum. A small but conceptually very important step was made by Einstein (for a similar type ...

Quantum Information Processing
... Any classical system is always in one of a defined set of states. For example, a perfect classical bit is actually in state zero or state one at any time; the two possibilities are mutually exclusive. However, as will be seen, a quantum system can exist in what might be termed a schizophrenic state, ...

Quantum telecommunication with atomic ensembles
... Quantum communication is concerned with the distribution of quantum states. An important application of quantum communication is the secure transmission of classical information between remote sites, via so-called quantum cryptographic key generation. The latter often involves the ability to entangl ...

... only these two eigenvalues). The quantum system is prepared in the state |0i at t = 0 and is allowed to freely evolve as dictated by the time evolution operator with a time-independent Hamiltonian Ĥ, but without any other external interference. Then the observable A is measured at t = T, but its va ...

Quantum Mechanical Algorithms for the Nonabelian Hidden
... (no longer just Fourier sampling once) for the HSP for any almost abelian group. The new class of groups for which there is an efficient quantum algorithm for the HSP includes the particular example of the semidirect product C3 Cm for large m (here Ck is the cyclic group with k elements). Some other ...
