High transpirational cooling by urban trees despite extreme summer heatwaves

Charlotte Grossiord, Christoph Bachofen

Urban trees cool their environment by shading and transpiration (latent heat, LE), thereby alleviating urban heat. LE may be critically reduced during heatwaves, when trees reduce stomatal conductance (gS) to prevent hydraulic dysfunctions. Recent observat ...

Quantum Protocols for ML, Physics, and Finance

Grzegorz Adam Gluch

In this thesis, we give new protocols that offer a quantum advantage for problems in ML, Physics, and Finance. Quantum mechanics gives predictions that are inconsistent with local realism. The experiment proving this fact (Bell, 1964) gives a quantum proto ...

Unearthing the foundational role of anharmonicity in heat transport in glasses

Paolo Pegolo

The time-honored Allen -Feldman theory of heat transport in glasses is generally assumed to predict a finite value for the thermal conductivity, even if it neglects the anharmonic broadening of vibrational normal modes. We demonstrate that the harmonic app ...
