Privacy amplification is an indispensable step in postprocessing of continuous-variable quantum key distribution (CV-QKD), which is used to distill unconditional secure keys from identical corrected keys between two distant legal parties. The processing speed of privacy amplification has a significa...

During pipeline pigging operations, precise control of the pig’s running speed is crucial. However, external speed disturbances often occur during these operations. In response to this challenge, adjustments are made to the flow rate through the pig body, thereby modifying the pressure difference an...

ABSTRACT Background Earlier studies have proposed the effect of education level and sedentary behavior (SB) on the incidence of depression in adults. However, the association between the combination of education level and SB and depression in adults has not yet been investigated. Methods This study...

Balanced homodyne detector (BHD) that can measure the field quadratures of coherent states has been widely used in a range of quantum information technologies. Generally, the BHD tends to suffer from narrow bands and an expanding bandwidth behavior usually traps into a compromise with the gain, elec...

Lead-bismuth reactors are the most promising type among the fourth-generation reactors. When the reactor operates for a long time, the fuel cladding may develop small breaches due to high temperatures and other factors, leading to the release of radioactive fission products into the coolant, which i...
