Slow dynamics from a nested hierarchy of frozen states
We identify the mechanism of slow heterogeneous relaxation in quantum kinetically constrained models (KCMs) in which the potential energy strength is controlled by a coupling parameter. The regime of slow relaxation includes the large-coupling limit. By expanding around that limit, we reveal a \emph{nested hierarchy} of states that remain frozen on time scales determined by powers of the coupling. The classification of such states, together with the evolution of their Krylov complexity, reveal …

The Door to Policy Portability might be an IP Overlay
Portable service mesh implementations enable layer 4 to layer 7 policy enforcement across diverse infrastructures, but they remain tied to infrastructure-specific layer 3 network policies. Network policies enable control over IP traffic flow regardless of whether traffic is authorized at the application level. However, not all infrastructure supports enforcing them, and achieving consistent enforcement across heterogeneous environments is challenging. For example, studies have shown that the ma…

Temporal Pulse Origins in Atom Interferometric Quantum Sensors
Quantum sensors based upon atom interferometry typically rely on radio-frequency or optical pulses to coherently manipulate atomic states and make precise measurements of inertial and gravitational effects. An advantage of these sensors over their classical counterparts is often said to be that their measurement scale factor is precisely known and highly stable. However, in practice the finite pulse duration makes the sensor scale factor dependent upon the pulse shape and sensitive to variation…

Multi-diagnostic characterization of inductively coupled discharges with tailored waveform substrate bias for precise control of plasma etching
Precise control of ion energy distribution functions (IEDF) is crucial for selectivity as well as control over sputter rate and substrate damage in nanoscale plasma processes. In this work, a low frequency (100 kHz) tailored pulse-wave-shaped bias voltage waveform is applied to the substrate electrode of an inductively coupled plasma (ICP) and its effects on the IEDF, electron density, electron dynamics and the etch rates of silicon dioxide as well as amorphous silicon are investigated in a com…

"The calls are part of a broader strategy by the Trump administration to ... turn the state department into an anti-immigration machine. "In the Trump administration migration issues have become a key pillar of our foreign policy, and this may be here to stay for the rest of the century,” a senior state department official told The Guardian."

While the US can protect security in Europe and deserves our undying gratitude for having done so for the last 80 years,
Europeans cannot protect democracy in the US.
They can and must, however, protect liberal democracy in Europe,
which risks becoming a collateral victim of Trump’s domestic and foreign policy agenda.
What happens in America doesn’t stay in America.
It is often a precursor for trends in Europe.
