Thomas Mulligan explains how the number “42” became a cosmic code in both pop culture and scientific contexts.

We propose and demonstrate a scheme to realize a high-efficiency truly quantum random number generator (RNG) at room temperature. Using an effective extractor with simple time bin encoding method, the ...

Abstract: This paper presents three new ensembles of low density generator matrix (LDGM) codes, all of which are systematic codes. We prove that, under the maximum likelihood (ML) decoding, these ...
