Halfway between the experiment and the focus group, between the quiz and a game, we have experienced a new format to focus on sustainability and the fundamental laws of thermodynamics and its principles. Concepts as reversibility, efficiency and entropy, are then visualized by the participants, showing the relations with the economic value, waste, the energetics budget and raw material costs are explained from a different point of view, proving the physical limits to the economic growth and the environmental exploitation.

We prove a general limitation in quantum information that unifies the impossibility principles such as no-cloning and no-anticloning. Further, we show that for an unknown qubit one cannot design a universal Hadamard gate for creating equal superposition of the original and its complement state. Surprisingly, we find that Hadamard transformations exist for an unknown qubit chosen either from the polar or equatorial great circles. Also, we show that for an unknown qubit one cannot design a universal unitary gate for creating unequal superpositions of the original and its complement state. We discuss why it is impossible to design a controlled-NOT gate for two unknown qubits and discuss the implications of these limitations.
Although governments across Europe had realised the need to incentivise the development of practically viable longitude solutions as early as the late-sixteenth century, the English government was late to the party. An sense of urgency among the scientific community and maritime navigators led to the establishment of a number of longitude awards by private donors. The first private British award was bequeathed in 1691 by Thomas Axe, parish clerk of Ottery St. Mary (Devon). Despite the absence of an expenses component and the onerous and costly nature of its terms and conditions, the Axe prize attracted a number of optimistic claimants. Although the award was never disbursed, it may have contributed to the instigation of the government-supported monetary reward associated with the British Longitude Act of 1714. It is likely that the conditions governing the British Longitude Prize, specifically the required accuracy and the need for sea trials and of disclosure of a successful methods theoretical principles, can be traced back at least in part to the Axe Prize requirements.
Mobile traffic is projected to increase 1000 times from 2010 to 2020. This poses significant challenges on the 5th generation (5G) wireless communication system design, including network structure, air interface, key transmission schemes, multiple access, and duplexing schemes. In this paper, full duplex networking issues are discussed, aiming to provide some insights on the design and possible future deployment for 5G. Particularly, the interference scenarios in full duplex are analyzed, followed by discussions on several candidate interference mitigation approaches, interference proof frame structures, transceiver structures for channel reciprocity recovery, and super full duplex base station where each sector operates in time division duplex (TDD) mode. The extension of TDD and frequency division duplex (FDD) to full duplex is also examined. It is anticipated that with future standardization and deployment of full duplex systems, TDD and FDD will be harmoniously integrated, supporting all the existing half duplex mobile phones efficiently, and leading to a substantially enhanced 5G system performance.
It is shown that the convective instability in electron fluids in 3D and 2D Dirac semimetals is strongly inhibited. The major obstacles for the convection are the effects of the Coulomb forces and the momentum relaxation related to the interaction with impurities and phonons. The effect of the Coulomb forces is less pronounced in 2D materials, such as graphene. However, momentum relaxation still noticeably inhibits convection making it very difficult to achieve in practice.
The general transformation of the product of coherent states $prod_{i=1}^N|alpha_i>$ to the output state $prod_{i=1}^M|beta_i>$ ($N=M$ or $N eq M$), which is realizable with linear optical circuit, is characterized with a linear map from the vector $(alpha^{ast}_1,...,alpha^{ast}_N)$ to $(beta^{ast}_1,...,beta^{ast}_M)$. A correspondence between the transformations of a product of coherent states and those of a single photon state is established with such linear maps. It is convenient to apply this linear transformation method to design any linear optical scheme working with coherent states. The examples include message encoding and quantum database searching. The limitation of manipulating entangled coherent states with linear optics is also discussed.
