On the detectability of ocean surface waves by real and synthetic aperture radar

WR Alpers, DB Ross… - Journal of Geophysical …, 1981 - Wiley Online Library
Real and synthetic aperture radars have been used in recent years to image ocean surface
waves. Though wavelike patterns are often discernible on radar images, it is still not fully …

Interacting quantum observables: categorical algebra and diagrammatics

B Coecke, R Duncan - New Journal of Physics, 2011 - iopscience.iop.org
This paper has two tightly intertwined aims:(i) to introduce an intuitive and universal graphical
calculus for multi-qubit systems, the ZX-calculus, which greatly simplifies derivations in the …

Interacting quantum observables

B Coecke, R Duncan - International Colloquium on Automata, Languages …, 2008 - Springer
We formalise the constructive content of an essential feature of quantum mechanics: the
interaction of complementary quantum observables, and information flow mediated by them. …

Donor CD4+ Foxp3+ regulatory T cells are necessary for posttransplantation cyclophosphamide-mediated protection against GVHD in mice

S Ganguly, DB Ross… - Blood, The Journal …, 2014 - ashpublications.org
Posttransplantation cyclophosphamide (PTCy) is an effective prophylaxis against graft-versus-host
disease (GVHD). However, it is unknown whether PTCy works singularly by …

…, R de Lemos, LN de Castro, R Duncan - Proceedings of the …, 2002 - researchgate.net
The immune system is a remarkable and complex natural system, which has been shown to
be of interest to computer scientists and engineers alike. This paper reports an on-going …

[HTML][HTML] Graph-theoretic Simplification of Quantum Circuits with the ZX-calculus

R Duncan, A Kissinger, S Perdrix… - Quantum, 2020 - quantum-journal.org
We present a completely new approach to quantum circuit optimisation, based on the ZX-calculus.
We first interpret quantum circuits as ZX-diagrams, which provide a flexible, lower-…

Networks of investigators have begun sharing best practices, tools and methods for analysis
of associations between genetic variation and common diseases. A Network of Investigator …

On the qubit routing problem

A Cowtan, S Dilkes, R Duncan, A Krajenbrink… - arXiv preprint arXiv …, 2019 - arxiv.org
We introduce a new architecture-agnostic methodology for mapping abstract quantum circuits
to realistic quantum computing devices with restricted qubit connectivity, as implemented …

Observations of oceanic whitecaps and their relation to remote measurements of surface wind speed

DB Ross, V Cardone - Journal of Geophysical Research, 1974 - Wiley Online Library
A series of photographs of sea surface whitecap conditions for wind speeds of 10 to 25 m/s
has been obtained and analyzed for areal coverage of white water. The results are in good …
