Numerical methods for finite-size key rates with different entropic bounds in quantum key distribution by Chung, Rebecca Ru Byn

“…We then showed that the Renyi entropy indeed gives a tighter bound on the low-signal regime (N~10^5), and outperforms the bound using the von Neumann entropy in regimes of long channel distances and low signal number, thus paving the way for a better understanding of long-distance satellite-based QKD protocols in the presence of finite resources.…”

An investigation of friction-based tendon sheath model appropriate for control purposes by Tjahjowidodo, Tegoeh, Lau, Michael Wai Shing, Phee, Soo Jay, Do, T. N.

“…A new dynamic friction model that allows accurate description of friction lag and hysteresis behavior in two regimes, i.e. presliding and sliding regimes, for a sheath in arbitrary configuration such as helical and spatial shape has been developed. …”

The impact of evolving SARS-CoV-2 mutations and variants on COVID-19 vaccines by McLean, Gary R., Kamil, Jeremy, Lee, Benhur, Moore, Penny, Schulz, Thomas F., Muik, Alexander, Sahin, Ugur, Tureci, Ozlem, Pather, Shanti

“…Although data on the effectiveness of the primary regimen against omicron (B.1.1.529) are limited, booster programs using mRNA vaccines have been shown to restore protection against infection and symptomatic disease (regardless of the vaccine used for the primary regimen) and maintain high effectiveness against hospitalization. …”

The use of paleomagnetic analysis to assess nonbrittle deformation within the San Andreas fault zone by Sieh, Kerry, Nagy, Elizabeth A.

“…A recently developed paleomagnetic extraction technique successfully permits sample collection from unconsolidated sediments. Traditional measurement and demagnetization procedures can subsequently be performed, and several studies have already shown that soft-sediment samples yield reliable magnetic polarity information. …”

The geomorphic work of the European mole (Talpa europaea): long-term monitoring of molehills using structure-from-motion photogrammetry by Baxter, T, Woor, S, Coombes, M, Viles, H

“…</em><em>europaea</em> over larger spatial scales (e.g. river catchments) and longer timescales (e.g. years‒decades) to determine its importance in relation to other bioturbators and within the wider sediment system.</p>…”

Nonlinear evolution and acceleration of unstable fuel-lean hydrogen/air flame at normal and cryogenic temperatures by Yang, L, Zhang, T, Wang, Y, Fang, X, Leach, F, Chen, Z

“…By changing the equivalence ratio, initial temperature and channel size, the intensity of DLI and DTI varies, resulting in various regimes of flame evolution. It is found that cryogenic flames are more unstable than normal flames. …”

The four worlds of ‘welfare reality’ – social risks and outcomes in Europe by Ferragina, E, Seeleib-Kaiser, M, Spreckelsen, T

“…After three decades of welfare state crisis, change and transformation can we still speak of welfare state regimes when looking at their outcomes? The analysis of outcomes provides a picture of ‘the real worlds of welfare’ and is of considerable importance to understanding political legitimacy across countries. …”

Optimising statistical methodologies for estimating antimalarial efficacy for uncomplicated Plasmodium falciparum malaria by Dahal, P

Long contraction scour by Koh, Chun Wei

“…Using the incomplete self-similarity method and regression analysis of the database, a predictive scour depth equation was proposed which is suitable for applications with uniform and non-uniform sediments. It was found that the maximum scour depth in a long contraction depends mainly on the effect of the densimetric Froude number (Fo,d84), width ratio of the uncontracted to the contracted channel (B1/B2), sediment gradation (σg), and the relative sediment size (d84/h1). …”
