The past decades have seen the advent of information theory in various fields, from quantum physics to cosmology.
At an intermediary scale between atomic and cosmological scales are biological systems and in particular the cell, as a constitutive element o ...
Long global gyrokinetic turbulence simulations are particularly challenging in situations where the system deviates strongly from its initial state and when fluctuation levels are high, for example, in strong gradient regions. For particle-in-cell simulati ...
Life has most likely originated as a consequence of processes taking place in non-equilibrium conditions (e.g. in the proximity of deep-sea thermal vents) selecting states of matter that would have been otherwise unfavorable at equilibrium. Here we present ...
The relationship between the entropy of language and its complexity has been the subject of much speculation – some seeing the increase of linguistic entropy as a sign of linguistic complexification or interpreting entropy drop as a marker of greater regul ...
This paper is aimed at developing optimal motion planning for a single autonomous surface vehicle (ASV) equipped with an on-board pollutant sensor that will maximize the sensor-related information available for source seeking. The ASV uses a nonlinear diff ...
We propose a simple technique to realize Brillouin slow light in nearly transparent regime. A current-modulated semiconductor laser by a step function is used as Brillouin pump to generate a Brillouin loss doublet. ...
