Path integral implementation of the quantum instanton approximation currently belongs among the most accurate methods for computing quantum rate constants and kinetic isotope effects, but its use has been limited due to the rather high computational cost. ...
The group testing problem consists of determining a sparse subset of a set of items that are ``defective'' based on a set of possibly noisy tests, and arises in areas such as medical testing, fault detection, communication protocols, pattern matching, and ...
In Switzerland, newly introduced regulation mandates the upgrade of major wastewater treatment plants (WWTP) with an advanced treatment step such as ozonation. This offers a unique opportunity to study the inactivation of enteric virus during ozonation of ...
The excitation wavelength dependent photodynamics of pyrrole are investigated by nonadiabatic trajectory-surface-hopping dynamics simulations based on time dependent density functional theory (TDDFT) and the algebraic diagrammatic construction method to th ...
For each N ≥ Cdtd , we prove the existence of a well-separated spherical t-design in the sphere Sd consisting of N points, where Cd is a constant depending only on d. ...
Multi-party fair exchange (MFE) and fair secure multi-party computation (fair SMPC) are under-studied fields of research, with practical importance. We examine MFE scenarios where every participant has some item, and at the end of the protocol, either ever ...
This paper is devoted to the study of the behavior of the unique solution u delta is an element of H-0(1)(Omega), as delta -> 0, to the equation div(s(delta)A del u(delta)) + k(2)s(0)Sigma u(delta) = s0 f in Omega, where Omega is a smooth connected bounded ...
This paper presents 5ex+y, a system that is able to extract, index and query mathematical content expressed as mathematical expressions, complementing the CERN Document Server (CDS). We present the most important aspects of its design, our approach to mode ...
Any variation in the fundamental physical constants, more particularly in the fine structure constant, a, or in the mass of the electron, me, affects the recombination history of the Universe and cause an imprint on the cosmic microwave background angular ...
Sunlight inactivates waterborne viruses via direct (absorption of sunlight by the virus) and indirect processes (adsorption of sunlight by external chromophores, which subsequently generate reactive species) processes. While the mechanisms underlying these ...
