8 Characterization of Quantum Devices
Using quantum tomography and a single entangled state it is possible to characterize completely a quantum device, a channel, or a measuring... -
Mathematical Notation and Some Terminology
– The operator L from space W to space E: L : W → E -
7 Brane-World Cosmology
According to recent ideas from particle physics, the universe could be a higher-dimensional spacetime, with our observable part of the universe being... -
Introduction
This document is part of Subvolume C 'Tables of Neutron Resonance Parameters (Supplement to Subvolume B)' of Volume 16 'Low Energy Neutron Physics'.... -
Geometry of Irreversibility: The Film of Nonequilibrium States
A geometrical framework of nonequilibrium thermodynamics is developed in this chapter. The notion of macroscopically definable ensembles is... -
Film Extension of the Dynamics: Slowness as Stability
One of the difficulties in the problem of reducing the description is caused by the fact that there exists no commonly accepted formal definition of... -
4 Observational Cosmology
I discuss the classical cosmological tests, i.e., angular size-redshift, flux-redshift, and galaxy number counts, in the light of the cosmology... -
Slow Invariant Manifolds for Open Systems
Suppose that the slow invariant manifold is found for a dissipative system. What have we constructed it for? First of all, for solving the Cauchy... -
6 String Cosmology
This review provides a non-technical introduction into time dependent phenomena in string theory and their possible applications to cosmology, mainly... -
Relaxation Methods
The “large step**” relaxation method for solution of the invariance equation is developed. -
Accuracy Estimation and Post-Processing in Invariant Manifolds Construction
The post-processing algorithms are developed for the accuracy control and enhancement of approximate invariant manifold. -
Method of Natural Projector
P. and T. Ehrenfest introdused in 1911 a model of dynamics with a coarse-graining of the original conservative system in order to introduce... -
Quasi-Chemical Representation
In Chap. 5 we have used the second law of thermodynamics, the existence of the entropy, in order to equip the problem of constructing the slow... -
8 Gravitational Wave Astronomy:The High Frequency Window
As several large scale interferometers are beginning to take data at sensitivities where astrophysical sources are predicted, the direct detection of... -
The Anomalous Magnetic Moment of the Muon: A Theoretical Introduction
In February 2001, the Muon (g-2) Collaboration of the E821 experiment at the Brookhaven AGS released a new value of the anomalous magnetic moment of... -
3 Maximum-Likelihood Methodsin Quantum Mechanics
Maximum Likelihood estimation is a versatile tool covering wide range of applications, but its benefits are apparent particularly in the quantum... -
Theory of Rare B Decays: b → s γ and b → s ℓ+ ℓ-#8211;
In this lectures some of the theoretical aspects of rare B decays are discussed. The focus is on inclusive decays, since these can be computed more... -
1 Introduction
These lectures were delivered at the ECT* The ECT* is the European Centre for Theoretical Studies in Nuclear Physics and Related... -
3 The Landau-Ginzburg Model of a Dual Superconductor
We shall describe color confinement in the QCD ground state in terms of a dual superconductor, which differs from usual metallic superconductors in... -
6 Quantum Tomography from Incomplete Data via MaxEnt Principle
We show how the maximum entropy (MaxEnt) principle can be efficiently used for a reconstruction of states of quantum systems from incomplete...
