We study how a quantum heat engine based on a single trapped ion performs in finite time. The always-on thermal environment acts like the hot bath, while the motional degree of freedom of the ion plays the role of the ...

Practical quantum computing is rapidly becoming a reality. To harness quantum computers’ real potential in software applications, one needs to have an in-depth understanding of all such characteristics of quantum computing ...

Global temperature has risen >1 °C since the preindustrial era, resulting in well-documented adverse climate impacts including extreme weather (floods, droughts, storms, and heat waves), a rise in sea level accompanying ...

Rearrangement reactions constitute a critical facet of synthetic organic chemistry and demonstrate an attractive way to take advantage of existing structures to access various important molecular frameworks. Electroorganic ...

A straightforward approach for the one-pot synthesis of aziridinoisoxazoles via cascade intramolecular rearrangement of nitrocyclopropane carboxylates to cyclic nitronates followed by a thermal cycloaddition reaction ...

We examine the sustainability of the current account (CA) deficits among the top deficit countries occurring consistently in the period after the global financial crisis period. Hence, we chose four developed economies, namely, ...

This study investigated the multifractal characteristics of fne resolution (0.25o x0.25°) daily gridded rainfall felds of India over the period 1901–2013 to examine their spatiotemporal variability. The scaling ...

This paper introduces a new combined power and cooling cycle (CPCC) formed by the integration of a modified Kalina and Goswami cycles sharing a common absorber that in turn demands for internal rectification in the former ...

This paper proposes drone assisted device-to-device cooperative communication (DADDCC) for critical situations during post-disaster management. The proposed network utilizes the autonomous mode of D2D communication for ...

Memristor-based crossbar architecture has emerged as a promising candidate for 3-D memory, logic, and neuromorphic computing system as it offers remarkably high integration density, low power consumption, fast operation, ...
