Zero-temperature quantum annealing bottlenecks in the spin-glass phase
Nature Communications, 2016 Quantum annealing can solve hard optimization problems, but it is limited by computational bottlenecks. Here, the author obtains the scaling of spin-glass bottlenecks with the problem size and explains a crossover to exponential complexity for large ...

Use of integrated population models for assessing density-dependence and juvenile survival in Northern Bobwhites (Colinus virginianus) [PDF]
PeerJManagement of wildlife populations is most effective with a thorough understanding of the interplay among vital rates, population growth, and density-dependent feedback; however, measuring all relevant vital rates and assessing density-dependence can ...

Photostimulation of Japanese quail
Poultry Science, 2015 To adapt commercial poultry production to a new scenario of energy savings and to develop specific practices for quail production aimed at reducing costs while maintaining or improving productivity, four experiments were conducted. In the first experiment, birds were allocated to four treatments (photoperiod duration): T1: 14 L:10 D; T2: 15 L:9 D; T3 ...

Culture System for Bobwhite Quail Embryos from the Blastoderm Stage to Hatching
The Journal of Poultry Science, 2013 Quail are divided phylogenetically into two groups, Old World quail and New World quail. Old World quail, such as the Japanese quail (Coturnix japonica), belong to the Phasianidae and distributed in the Palaearctic region (Europe, North Africa, and Asia),
