Impossibility of universal work extraction from coherence: reconciling axiomatic and resource-theory approaches

Samuel Plesnik, Maria Violaris • New Journal of Physics (2024)

We compare how the impossibility of a universal work extractor from coherence arises from different approaches to quantum thermodynamics: an explicit protocol accounting for all relevant quantum resources, and axiomatic, information-theoret...

The formation of nitro-aromatic compounds under high NO<sub><i>x</i></sub> and anthropogenic VOC conditions in urban Beijing, China

Y. Wang, M. Hu, M. Hu, Y. Wang et al. • Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics (2019)

Nitro-aromatic compounds (NACs), as important contributors to the light absorption by brown carbon, have been widely observed in various ambient atmospheres; however, their formation in the urban atmosphere was little studied. In this work,...

Exploring the Relative Importance and Interactive Impacts of Explanatory Variables of the Built Environment on Ride-Hailing Ridership by Using the Optimal Parameter-Based Geographical Detector (OPGD) Model

Zhenbao Wang, Shuyue Liu, Yuchen Zhang, Xin Gong et al. • Applied Sciences (2023)

The impact of the built environment on the ridership of ride-hailing results depends on the spatial grid scale. The existing research on the demand model of ride-hailing ignores the modifiable areal unit problem (MAUP). Taking Chengdu as an...

Curvature and thermal corrections in tree-level CPT-Violating Leptogenesis

Nick E. Mavromatos, Sarben Sarkar • European Physical Journal C: Particles and Fields (2020)

Abstract In a model for leptogenesis based on spontaneous breaking of Lorentz and $$\mathcal {CPT}$$ CPT symmetry [1–3], we examine the consistency of using the approximation of plane-wave solutions for a free spin-$$\frac{1}{2}$$ 12 Dirac ...

Multi-jet merged top-pair production including electroweak corrections

Christian Gütschow, Jonas M. Lindert, Marek Schönherr • European Physical Journal C: Particles and Fields (2018)

Abstract We present theoretical predictions for the production of top-quark pairs in association with jets at the LHC including electroweak (EW) corrections. First, we present and compare differential predictions at the fixed-order level fo...

Investigation of dipole emission near a dielectric metasurface using a dual-tip scanning near-field optical microscope

Abbasirad Najmeh, Barreda Angela, Arslan Dennis, Steinert Michael et al. • Nanophotonics (2021)

A wide variety of near-field optical phenomena are described by the interaction of dipole radiation with a nanophotonic system. The electromagnetic field due to the dipole excitation is associated with the Green’s function. It is of great i...

Optimal randomness generation from optical Bell experiments

Alejandro Máttar, Paul Skrzypczyk, Jonatan Bohr Brask, Daniel Cavalcanti et al. • New Journal of Physics (2015)

Genuine randomness can be certified from Bell tests without any detailed assumptions on the working of the devices with which the test is implemented. An important class of experiments for implementing such tests is optical setups based on ...

FRB 121102 casts new light on the photon mass

Luca Bonetti, John Ellis, Nikolaos E. Mavromatos, Alexander S. Sakharov et al. • Physics Letters B (2017)

The photon mass, mγ, can in principle be constrained using measurements of the dispersion measures (DMs) of fast radio bursts (FRBs), once the FRB redshifts are known. The DM of the repeating FRB 121102 is known to ...
