Spin vectors in the Koronis family: V. Resolving the ambiguous rotation period of (3032) Evans [PDF]
, 2023 A sidereal rotation counting approach is demonstrated by resolving an ambiguity in the synodic rotation period of Koronis family member (3032) Evans, whose rotation lightcurves' features did not easily distinguish between doubly- and quadruply-periodic. It confirms that Evans's spin rate does not exceed the rubble-pile spin barrier and thus presents no

Simulation of Many-Body Fermi Systems on a Universal Quantum Computer [PDF]
Phys.Rev.Lett. 79 (1997) 2586-2589, 1997 We provide fast algorithms for simulating many body Fermi systems on a universal quantum computer. Both first and second quantized descriptions are considered, and the relative computational complexities are determined in each case. In order to accommodate fermions using a first quantized Hamiltonian, an efficient quantum algorithm for anti ...
