OSI2016 Workgroup QuestionWhat do we mean by publishing in today’s world? What should be the goals of scholarly publishing? What are the ideals to which scholarly publishing should aspire? What roles ...might scholarly publishers have in the future? What scenarios exist where publishers continue to play a vital role but information moves more freely? What impact might these reforms have on the health of publishers? Scholarly societies? Science research? Why?
The creation of a quantum network requires the distribution of coherent information across macroscopic distances. We demonstrate the entanglement of two superconducting qubits, separated by more than ...a meter of coaxial cable, by designing a joint measurement that probabilistically projects onto an entangled state. By using a continuous measurement scheme, we are further able to observe single quantum trajectories of the joint two-qubit state, confirming the validity of the quantum Bayesian formalism for a cascaded system. Our results allow us to resolve the dynamics of continuous projection onto the entangled manifold, in quantitative agreement with theory.
This paper considers how radar and environmental parameters affect ocean imaging by synthetic aperture radar (SAR). The Space Department at DERA Farnborough in conjunction with GEC-Marconi Research ...Centre are using space-based SAR data to study these issues. The results described involve both ERS-2 and spaceborne imaging radar-C/X-band SAR (SlR-C/X-SAR) data. Satellite-derived wind and wave products will always need to be collected. Planned future SAR systems will have different radar parameters. In some cases, notably Envisat, simultaneous observations in different radar channels will be possible. It is useful that the effect of these different radar parameters and channels are estimated. The results indicate some of the potential benefits obtainable from Envisat. This study uses empirical models to predict the mean backscatter using wind and wave data and also studies ocean wave imaging of the SIR-C/X-SAR data.

The installation of the pumped divertor into the JET machine during 1992-1993 includes a total refurbishing of most of the in-vessel components and a new first wall configuration. The paper describes ...the new components, and the requirements which were implemented in the design. These include the requirements related to normal plasma operation and off-normal effects such as disruptions as well as those related to installation and alignment.
