Limitations to Dynamical Error Suppression and Gate-Error Virtualization from Temporally Correlated Nonclassical Noise by Michiel Burgelman, Nattaphong Wonglakhon, Diego N. Bernal-García, Gerardo A. Paz-Silva, Lorenza Viola

“…By working within an open-quantum system Hamiltonian formulation, we revisit the validity of the notion of a constant gate error in the presence of noise that is both temporally correlated and nonclassical, and the impact of which is mitigated through perfect instantaneous dynamical decoupling subject to finite timing constraints. We study a minimal exactly solvable single-qubit model under Gaussian quantum dephasing noise, showing that the fidelity of a dynamically protected idling gate can depend strongly on its location in the circuit and the history of applied control, even when the system-side error propagation is fully removed through perfect reset operations. …”

On the reduction of imaging time-points for dosimetry in radionuclide therapy by Johan Gustafsson, Jan Taprogge

“…Results The dispersion in time-integrated activity is minimized if the time-points used for curve fitting have a large dispersion and are centered over the mean of $$\tau ={\lambda }_{\text{eff}}^{-1}$$ τ = λ eff - 1 over the population, where $${\lambda }_{\text{eff}}$$ λ eff is the effective decay constant (i.e., the sum of the biological and physical decay constants). …”

The Impact of Stone Quarrying on Socio Economic Status of Households in Nyakyibigi Ntungamo Municipality. by Natweeta, Elvason

“…The study recommended there should be strengthening of security in quarrying areas in order to protect the quarrying activities which leads to improvement at the quarrying site, there should be carefully pre-planning of the project to ensure that the quarrying process takes place well and in its actual state because when this one is done, then the activity also goes on well to facilitate the desires of the community and there should be fitting of drills with dust collection systems and purchasing additional land surrounding the mine to act as a buffer zone and trees planted in these buffer zones can also minimize the visual impact of quarrying operations on local communities.…”

Modeling Radionuclide Transfer from Pasture to Milk in Kisoro, South- Western Uganda by Habakwiha V, Oruru B, Tumps Ireeta W

“…Comparing with the safe values of annual effective dose equivalent in foodstuffs of 0.14 mSv y l-1 which translates to excess cancer risk of 0.42 10-3, these contributions to radiological effects only account for about 1.5% of the total safe value of excess lifetime cancer risk, therefore, radionuclide transfer from pasture to milk causes a minimal radiation hazard to the milk consumers in Kisoro District.…”
