Quantum Simulation of Dissipative Processes without Reservoir Engineering

We present a quantum algorithm to simulate general finite dimensional Lindblad master equations without the requirement of engineering the system-environment interactions. The proposed method is able to simulate both Markovian and non-Markovian quantum dynamics. It consists in the quantum computation of the dissipative corrections to the unitary evolution of the system of interest, via the reconstruction of the response functions associated with the Lindblad operators. Our approach is equally applicable to dynamics generated by effectively non-Hermitian Hamiltonians. We confirm the quality of our method providing specific error bounds that quantify its accuracy.

Diez años de investigación sobre teatro traducido en España: el proyecto TRACE y los archivos de censura

[EN] This contribution offers a brief overview of research undertaken for the last few years under the TRACE (translation and censorship, or censored translations) project with respect to theatre. The AGA (General Administration Archive in Alcala de Henares, Madrid), a unique source for information for translation scholars, has become the focus of TRACE-theatre investigations on Francoist Spain in the last few years. In Spain, these censorship archives have proved to be an essential source of information, and a rich reservoir of data that, when explored in depth, help draw a history of Spanish theatre in translation. Contrary to what one may think at first, the purpose of using censorship archives in TRACE is not only to check what got censored (banned, crossed out or modified) but rather to trace back all written evidence left by plays that underwent the bureaucratic censoring process which was applied to all cultural manifestations, national or foreign, theatrical as well as non-dramatic. And it is precisely when tracing back censorship records that one finds a way to uncover a history of Spanish theatre in translation that is yet to be written but can now be outlined.

ph eta kontzentrazioaren eragina, erretxina kelanteen gainean egindako ioi trukaketa prozesuan

Azken urte hauetan industriak izan duen garapenak, onura asko ekarri ditu, hala nola, bizi maila eta kalitatea gora egin dute. Baina dena ez dira alde onak, izan ere, prozesu honek, kutsagarriak eta oso konplexuak diren hondakinak sortu ditu. Kutsadura hau ez du soilik oreka ekologikoa n kalte egiten, izan ere, kutsadura hau dagoen guneetan ere eragin handia dauka. Hori dela eta , ingurumenaren babesa gero eta garrantzi handiagoa hartzen ari da. Horretarako, industriak sortzen dituen hondakinen tratamendurako prozesuetan, inbertsio ekonomiko handiak egin behar dira. Hau ez da soilik legea betetzeko egin behar, baizik eta, indus tria merkatuan dagoen konpetentzian toki on bat lortzeko oso garrantzitsua da. Jariakinen tratamenduaren xedea dituzten araztegiak duten arazo printzipala, jariakin hauetan dauden metal astunen presentzia da. Metal hauek, araztegi hauetan ematen diren pro zesu biologikoen zai ltasuna bermatzen dute eta animali, landare eta giza osasunean efektu toxikoak izaten dituzte. Baimenduta dauden kontzentrazioen limitea betetzeko, industriak normalean isurketan egin baino lehen, aurretratamendu bat egitera behartuta ikusten dira, toxikoak diren edo oso oldarkorrak diren produktuak kentzeko. Adibidez, Industria Hidrometalurgiakoak , oso kontzentrazio baxuetan metal astunak isurtzen ditu, baina kantitate hauek baimenduta daude, industria hau erabiltzen dituen emari handiak direla eta. Normalean hondakin industrialetatik kanpora isurt zen diren metal astunak , kontzentrazio baxuetan eg ot en dira . Honek, errentagarritasun positiboa du ten araztegi tekniken aplikazioa ahalbideratzen du. Kutsadura hau sortzen dituzten prozesu industrial mota asko existitzen direnez, metal hauek, oso diluituak dauden disoluzioetatik banatu behar dira. Horretara ko, metal baliotsuen errekuperazioa eta isurketa industrialaren legeak betetzea bermatzen duten, banaketa prozesuak sortu behar izan d ira. Jarraian, helburu hau duten teknika batzuk azaltzen dira

Mobilizazio ziklo eta konfrontazio bortitzaren arteko harremana Europan 1960-70 hamarkadetan. Analisi konparatu bat: Euskal Herriko, Irlandako, Italiako eta Alemaniako kasuen azterketa

Lan honen ikergaia, Europan emandako gatazka bortitzen, eta zehazki armatuen, analisia izango da. Horretarako, gatazka armatu horien eta mobilizazio zikloen artean dauden harremanak eta zubiak aztertzen saiatuko gara. Analisi hau, 1960 hamarkadaren bukaeran eta 1970 hamarkadaren hasieran zentratuko da, izan ere, denbora tarte horretan eman ziren gatazka bortitzen espresiorik nagusienak, gatazka armatuak alegia. Hori aztertzeko, 4 kasu hartuko dira: ETA Euskal Herrian, IRA Irlandan, Brigate Rosse Italian eta Rote Armee Fraktion Alemanian.

Detection of particles with a cloud chamber

Cloud chambers were essential devices in early nuclear and particle physics research. Superseded by more modern detectors in actual research, they still remain very interesting pedagogical apparatus. This thesis attempts to give a global view on this topic. To do so, a review of the physical foundations of the diffusion cloud chamber, in which an alcohol is supersaturated by cooling it with a thermal reservoir, is carried out. Its main results are then applied to analyse the working conditions inside the chamber. The analysis remarks the importance of using an appropriate alcohol, such as isopropanol, as well as a strong cooling system, which for isopropanol needs to reach −40ºC. That theoretical study is complemented with experimental tests that were performed with what is the usual design of a home-made cloud chamber. An effective setup is established, which highlights details such as a grazing illumination, a direct contact with the cooling reservoir through a wide metal plate, or the importance of avoiding vapour removal. Apart from that, video results of different phenomena that cloud chamber allow to observe are also presented. Overall, it is aimed to present a physical insight that pedagogical papers usually lack.
