Finite-size analysis of continuous-variable measurement-device-independent quantum key distribution

open access: yes, 2017
We study the impact of the finite-size effect on the continuous-variable measurement-device-independent quantum key distribution (CV-MDI QKD) protocol, mainly considering the finite-size effect on the parameter estimation procedure.

Super Encryption Standard (SES): A Key-Dependent Block Cipher for Image Encryption

open access: yesInformation
Data encryption is a core mechanism in modern security services for protecting confidential data at rest and in transit. This work introduces the Super Encryption Standard (SES), a symmetric block cipher that follows the overall workflow of the Advanced ...

Influence of size and shape on key performance metrics in spin-torque oscillators

open access: yesAIP Advances, 2021
Spin Torque Oscillators (STOs) are promising solutions in a wide variety of next generation technologies from read-head sensors in high-density magnetic recording technology to neural oscillator units for neuromorphic computing. There are several metrics

Key distillation from Gaussian states by Gaussian operations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
We study the secrecy properties of Gaussian states under Gaussian operations. Although such operations are useless for quantum distillation, we prove that it is possible to distill a secret key secure against any attack from sufficiently entangled ...

Defects in the grain interiors of 3 mol% yttria-stabilized tetragonal zirconia polycrystal ceramics with 0.25 wt% alumina

open access: yesJournal of Advanced Ceramics
The presence of high-density defects is rarely observed in bulk 3 mol% yttria-stabilized tetragonal zirconia polycrystal (3Y-TZP) ceramics obtained through conventional pressureless sintering.

A Quality Improvement Initiative to Standardize Pneumocystis jirovecii Pneumonia Prophylaxis in Pediatric Patients With Solid Tumors

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Pediatric patients with extracranial solid tumors (ST) receiving chemotherapy are at an increased risk for Pneumocystis jirovecii pneumonia (PJP). However, evidence guiding prophylaxis practices in this population is limited. A PJP‐related fatality at our institution highlighted inconsistent prescribing approaches and concerns about

Predicting endotracheal tube size from length: Evaluation of the Broselow tape in Indian children

open access: yesJournal of Anaesthesiology Clinical Pharmacology, 2018
Background and Aims: Several formulae are available to estimate endotracheal tube (ETT) size in children. This study was designed to compare the ETT estimated by the Broselow tape (BT) with age-based estimation of ETT size and to identify the most ...

Sickle Cell Disease Is an Inherent Risk for Asthma in a Sibling Comparison Study

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Sickle cell disease (SCD) and asthma share a complex relationship. Although estimates vary, asthma prevalence in children with SCD is believed to be comparable to or higher than the general population. Determining whether SCD confers an increased risk for asthma remains challenging due to overlapping symptoms and the ...

Quantitative prediction of multivalent ligand–receptor binding affinities for influenza, cholera, and anthrax inhibition [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Multivalency achieves strong, yet reversible binding by the simultaneous formation of multiple weak bonds. It is a key interaction principle in biology and promising for the synthesis of high-affinity inhibitors of pathogens. We present a molecular model
