Quantum key distribution (QKD) promises secure key agreement by using quantum mechanical systems. We argue that QKD will be an important part of future cryptographic infrastructur...
Some physical aspects related to the limit operations of the Thomson lamp are discussed. Regardless of the formally unbounded and even infinite number of “steps” involved, the...
We have developed a visual syntax for representing concepts that are contingent on temporal properties (timedependent semantics). A within-group (N=24) experiment was conducted to...

A feedback scheme for preparation of photon number states in a microwave cavity is proposed. Quantum Non Demolition (QND) measurement of the cavity field provides information on it...
An extractor is a function that is used to extract randomness. Given an imperfect random source X and a uniform seed Y , the output (X; Y ) is close to uniform. We study properties...
