D-brane and exponential potentials inspire warm inflation and swampland conjecture

This research explores the rapid expansion period of the early universe by applying the Chaplygin gas model, an alternative cosmological framework, to analyze the dynamics of inflationary processes. This study assesses the compatibility of ...

High Energy Astrophysics

Providing students with an in-depth account of the astrophysics of high energy phenomena in the Universe, the third edition of this well-established textbook is ideal for advanced undergraduate and beginning graduate courses in high energy ...

Analytically Computing the Moments of a Conic Combination of Independent Noncentral Chi-Square Random Variables and Its Application for the Extended Cox–Ingersoll–Ross Process with Time-Varying Dimension

This paper focuses mainly on the problem of computing the γth, γ>0, moment of a random variable Yn:=∑i=1nαiXi in which the αi’s are positive real numbers and the Xi’s are independent and distributed according to noncentral chi-square distri...

Activation of Coagulation and Fibrinolysis in Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome: a Prospective Pilot Study

Introduction: Coagulation and fibrinolysis remain sparsely addressed with regards to acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). We hypothesized that ARDS development might be associated with changes in plasma coagulation and fibrinolysis. ...

Monostearin effects on the formation of precipitate in palm oil biodiesel and petroleum diesel blends with various storage temperature

Biodiesel is one of the renewable energy forms that is on demand in Indonesia. In the biodiesel production process, impurities such as Saturated Monoglycerides (SMG) in the form of monostearin that precipitate at low temperature are commonl...

Cold plasma Technology for Removal of Endotoxin from Dialysis Water

Cold plasma has emerged as a powerful energy-efficient and environmentally friendly advanced oxidation technique in recent decades as a non-thermal approach in a wide range of applications. It is a form of plasma that is created at low temp...

OPTIMIZATION OF HOT AIR SOLDER LEVELING (HASL) MACHINE FOR A ROBUST SURFACE FINISH IN SOLDERING APPLICATIONS

Hot Air Solder Leveling (HASL) is one of the most commonly used surface finishes in the industry. HASL is also one of the least expensive types of PCB surface finishes available. This study aims to examine the influence on the solder joint ...

QC-MM: A Metadata and Schema Model for Traceable Quantum-Circuit Experiments

Context: Modern quantum-computing experimentation generates heterogeneous, context-dependent execution data whose scientific value depends on preserving calibration state, compilation decisions, and run outcomes in a traceable and repositor...

Post-quantum cognitive zero trust architecture for healthcare IoT devices.

Healthcare IoT systems increasingly rely on interconnected, resource-constrained devices that are vulnerable to both classical and emerging quantum-enabled cyber threats, but introduced heightened cybersecurity risks, particularly from emer...

Framework for Implementing Quantum Neural Networks in Wireless Communications

While quantum computing is already being employed in different domains to solve large scale and highly complex optimization problems, the wireless communications community has only recently begun exploring the potential of Quantum Machine L...

The future of quantum computing with superconducting qubits

For the first time in history, we are seeing a branching point in computing paradigms with the emergence of quantum processing units (QPUs). Extracting the full potential of computation and realizing quantum algorithms with a super-polynomi...

ℤ₂ × ℤ₂ Equivariant Quantum Neural Networks: Benchmarking against Classical Neural Networks

This paper presents a comparative analysis of the performance of Equivariant Quantum Neural Networks (EQNNs) and Quantum Neural Networks (QNNs), juxtaposed against their classical counterparts: Equivariant Neural Networks (ENNs) and Deep Ne...

Strengths and Weaknesses of Quantum Computing

Recently a great deal of attention has been focused on quantum computation following a sequence of results [Bernstein and Vazirani, in Proc. 25th Annual ACM Symposium Theory Comput., 1993, pp. 11--20, SIAM J. Comput., 26 (1997), pp. 1277--1...

Nonclassicality and Coherent Error Detection via Pseudo-Entropy

Pseudo-entropy is a complex-valued generalization of entanglement entropy defined on non-Hermitian transition operators and induced by post-selection. We present a simulation-based protocol for detecting nonclassicality and coherent errors ...

Ontologies for molecular biology.

Molecular biology has a communication problem. There are many databases using their own labels and categories for storing data objects and some using identical labels and categories but with a different meaning. A prominent example is the c...

Beginning at the ends: telomeres and human disease [version 1; referees: 4 approved]

Studies of rare and common illnesses have led to remarkable progress in the understanding of the role of telomeres (nucleoprotein complexes at chromosome ends essential for chromosomal integrity) in human disease. Telomere biology disorders...

Transgenerational inheritance of ethanol preference is caused by maternal NPF repression

Rapid or even anticipatory adaptation to environmental conditions can provide a decisive fitness advantage to an organism. The memory of recurring conditions could also benefit future generations; however, neuronally-encoded behavior isn’t ...
