A unified optical platform for non-Gaussian and fault-tolerant Gottesman-Kitaev-Preskill states
npj Quantum InformationQuantum technologies, encompassing communication, computation, and metrology, rely on the generation and control of non-Gaussian states of light. These states enable secure quantum communication, fault-tolerant quantum computation, and precision sensing ...

Advanced Sensing Materials and Their Applications for Power Sensors
High Voltage, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The construction of new‐generation power systems imposes stringent requirements on the safety and reliability of critical equipment, making accurate state perception essential for grid security and digital transformation. Sensing materials fundamentally determine sensor performance in terms of sensitivity, bandwidth, environmental adaptability

The Lessons from 1970s Price Controls
The Political Quarterly, EarlyView.Abstract There has been a recent revival of interest in both voluntary and mandatory controls of prices to reduce the impact of inflation on low‐income groups. This article reviews the use of voluntary schemes of price restraint by the 1974–9 Labour government, in particular the ‘red triangle’ scheme in operation between February and August 1976.

Journal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, EarlyView.Food and alcohol indulgence, along with tea‐drinking, gambling, and gossip, are integral to a characteristically Sichuanese ethos of ‘life enjoyment’ (xiangshou shenghuo). Beyond mere pleasure, sensory, ludic, and comic experiences temporarily strip participants of both their formal and subjective qualities.

The origin of non-classical effects in a one-dimensional superposition of coherent states [PDF]
, 1992 We investigate the nature of the quantum fluctuations in a light field created by the superposition of coherent fields. We give a physical explanation (in terms of Wigner functions and phase-space interference) why the 1-D superposition of coherent ...

SUPERPOSITIONS OF SQUEEZED COHERENT STATES: PROPERTIES AND GENERATION
, 1999 The s-parameterized charactristic function for the superposition of squeezed coherent states (SCS's) is given. The s-parameterized distribution functions for the superposition of SCS's are investigated.

The Big Picture: Religion and Global Comparative History
Journal of Religious History, EarlyView.This article considers what a ‘big picture’ approach to global religious history might look like, and in particular the implications of deploying the comparative method across much larger stretches of time and space than historians normally attend to. It will begin by reflecting on the epistemological moods that have hindered this project to date, the ...

Rapid phase estimation of cavity squeezed states via optimal parametric control
Journal of Physics CommunicationsIdeally, the characterization of non-classical states requires measurements on timescales much shorter than the system’s decoherence time. However, in quantum cavity electrodynamics, photon loss rates are often comparable to measurement rates, which ...

STRATIFIED ADAPTATION: Infrastructure, Elevation, and Cascading Floods in the Urban Mekong Delta
International Journal of Urban and Regional Research, EarlyView.Abstract Flood‐prone cities in the global South are increasingly the target of infrastructure projects aimed at building climate ‘resilience’. At the same time, residents of these cities take adaptation to flooding into their own hands. In this article we examine the interrelationship between household‐scale and urban‐scale flood mitigation projects in
