Podcasts about annealing

What better way to celebrate four years and 100 episodes of The Post-Quantum World than to talk about an achievement we've all been waiting for. If you've been watching quantum news feeds, you might have heard of the D-Wave supremacy paper published in Science. Using an Advantage 2 system, D-Wave has performed a useful task for materials science faster and with less power consumption than a classical supercomputer. Researchers have tried to challenge this, but the results seem to be holding up. Has the team at D-Wave really done it? Are quantum computers finally passing the threshold into true utility? Join host Konstantinos Karagiannis for a wide-ranging chat about this remarkable achievement with CEO Alan Baratz and CDO Trevor Lanting from D-Wave.  For more on D-Wave, visit www.dwavesys.com/.  Read the Science paper: www.science.org/doi/10.1126/science.ado6285.   Visit Protiviti at www.protiviti.com/US-en/technology-consulting/quantum-computing-services  to learn more about how Protiviti is helping organizations get post-quantum ready.  Follow host Konstantinos Karagiannis on all socials: @KonstantHacker and follow Protiviti Technology on LinkedIn and Twitter: @ProtivitiTech.           Questions and comments are welcome!  Theme song by David Schwartz, copyright 2021.  The views expressed by the participants of this program are their own and do not represent the views of, nor are they endorsed by, Protiviti Inc., The Post-Quantum World, or their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, representatives, shareholders, or subsidiaries.  None of the content should be considered investment advice, as an offer or solicitation of an offer to buy or sell, or as an endorsement of any company, security, fund, or other securities or non-securities offering.

Without making any ontological, philosophical, or metaphysical assertions or assumptions, we acknowledge that the experience of the divine and the concept of "God" can have a significant impact on the human soul. Therefore, exploring this phenomenon is crucial for obtaining a comprehensive and direct understanding of consciousness.In this guided meditation, Andrés will lead you through an exploration of various conceptions of the divine without favoring any particular one. The central question guiding this exploration is: what is the experiential essence of inhabiting a world in which God is perceived in different ways? Rather than pursuing a specific dogma, we engage in an open-ended exploration of the divine to foster Qualia Mastery*. This approach is termed "Open Sourcing God," where individuals are not reliant on external interpretations or rules to access their own understanding of the divine.The diverse conceptions of the divine that will be explored include Chaos, Ingroup, Hierarchy, Creator, The Law, Archetype, Replication, Dynamics, Life, Energy, Coincidence and Synchronicity, Love, Compassion, Witness, Consciousness, Awareness, Oneness, Axis of Annealing, and Valence.

In this episode, we hear from Quintin Frerichs of the Qualia Research Institute about Neural Annealing - a theory for how the brain updates emotional beliefs. Frerichs discusses how this theory can help us to understand how the brain processes information, and how it can be applied to improve our understanding of mental illness and other neurological conditions.

“When we started in the quantum space 10 years ago, nobody really believed you could build a gate model system, but it was believed that you could build an annealing system. So since we were the only ones trying to build a quantum computer back then we selected annealing because there was a pretty good sense that you could build such a beast. And we went ahead and did it about five years ago when everybody else decided to get into the quantum space. So we're, we are the leaders, they're the laggards, when everybody else decided to get into the quantum space, it was believed at that point that you could build a gate model system, the science and the engineering had evolved to the point where it was believed that you could.” -Alan Baratz, CEO, D-Wave Systems Tune in for a replay of The Six Five Summit's #Quantum Spotlight Keynote with Alan Baratz, CEO, D-Wave Systems.

Monte Carlo simulations have been around for quite a while in classical computing. They help companies model potential outcomes of a broad range of “what if” scenarios. Since 2015, the quantum computing industry has believed Monte Carlo simulations would be one of the best use cases to show quantum advantage. QC Ware was able to prove the feasibility of this approach recently, working with Goldman Sachs. And now they want to share that field-tested approach, along with other use cases, in a powerful tool. Join host Konstantinos Karagiannis and Yianni Gamvros from QC Ware for a chat about how to get access to proven, reusable quantum code.For more on QC Ware visit www.qcware.com/.Visit Protiviti at www.protiviti.com/postquantum to learn more about how Protiviti is helping organizations get post-quantum ready.Follow host Konstantinos Karagiannis on Twitter and Instagram: @KonstantHacker and follow Protiviti Technology on LinkedIn and Twitter: @ProtivitiTech.

D-Wave has been making quantum computers for over a decade, and their annealers excel at optimization. If you look at the use cases the company has been helping customers with, it almost feels like quantum advantage is here. If you're saving time or money, or both, how can you complain? And even after the other type of quantum computers, universal-gate-based systems, become fault tolerant, annealers will likely be around forever due to how powerful they are at specific use cases (sort of like how graphics cards work alongside CPUs).

Finding a specific use case that proves quantum advantage will radically kickstart the quantum computing industry. While universal gate-based quantum computers with error correction are a few years away, annealers – quantum systems from D-Wave – are proving excellent at specific types of problems today, especially in a hybrid approach aided by classical computers. Just how excellent are these systems? We might finally have an example of portfolio optimization that provides a thousandfold boost in speed.

Link to bioRxiv paper: http://biorxiv.org/cgi/content/short/2020.10.26.354233v1?rss=1 Authors: Bravo, J. P. K., Bartnik, K., Venditti, L., Gail, E. H., Davidovich, C., Lamb, D. C., Tuma, R., Calabrese, A. N., Borodavka, A. Abstract: Rotavirus genomes are distributed between 11 distinct RNA segments, all of which are essential for virus replication. Stoichiometric genome segment selection and assembly is achieved through a series of sequence-specific, intersegment RNA-RNA interactions that are facilitated by the rotavirus RNA chaperone protein NSP2. The C-terminal region (CTR) of NSP2 has been proposed to play a role in rotavirus replication, although its mechanistic contribution to the RNA chaperone activity of NSP2 remained unknown. Here, we use single-molecule fluorescence assays to directly demonstrate that the CTR is required for promoting RNA-RNA interactions and that it limits the RNA unwinding activity of NSP2. Unexpectedly, hydrogen-deuterium exchange-mass spectrometry and UV-crosslinking data indicate that the CTR does not interact with RNA. However, removal of the CTR reduced the RNA release activity of NSP2, suggesting that the CTR is important for chaperone recycling. To further interrogate the role of the CTR, we determined cryo-EM structures of NSP2 and its ribonucleoprotein complexes. These reveal that although the CTR is ampholytic in nature, it harbours a highly conserved acidic patch that is poised towards bound RNA. Using a reverse genetics approach, we demonstrate that rotavirus mutants harbouring triple alanine mutations within the acidic patch failed to replicate, while mutations that preserve the charge of the CTR successfully restored viral replication. Together, our data suggest that the CTR reduces the accumulation of kinetically trapped NSP2-RNA complexes by accelerating RNA dissociation via charge repulsion, thus promoting efficient intermolecular RNA-RNA interactions during segment assembly.

Chicago Quantum have recently been publishing some interesting results, e.g. “ Portfolio Optimization of 40 Stocks Using the D-Wave Quantum Annealer ”. They've investigated the use of quantum computers for building a portfolio out of a universe of US listed, liquid equities that contains an optimal set of stocks. Starting from historical market data, they examined formulations on the D-Wave 2000Q System (DWave) to find optimal risk vs return portfolios; an optimized portfolio based on the Markowitz formulation and the Sharpe ratio, a simplified Chicago Quantum Ratio (CQR), then a new Chicago Quantum Net Score (CQNS). Their results show that practitioners can use a DWave to select attractive portfolios out of up to 60 US liquid equities. This webinar will examine what may well be the earliest actual quantum computing application in finance since Z/Yen first looked at the implications of quantum computing back in 1998, The Potential Impact Of Quantum Computing , and the formation of the Quantum Computing in Europe Pathfinder Project for the European Commission with Charles T Ross. There will an opportunity to get a feel for the quantum computer ‘rig' being used. The webinar will also discuss the performance outcomes of two of the portfolios, and speculate at what point we should expect to see quantum advantage in stock picking.

Quantum annealing is a special case of quantum computing for which the engineering challenges are lessened - and therefore we expect computers of this sort to achieve stability sooner. In this episode we examine the potential for the quantum annealing approach to break RSA-based cryptography sooner than most people have been expecting, and the difficulty of predicting the "Z date" at all.

It’s episode #97 and I’ve got another JayBurn Journal for you.  A technical article written by Jay Burnham-Kidwell. He’s a longtime blacksmith residing in Arizona, Since 1974, he has worked in various mediums and exhibited his work throughout the world.  He works as a studio artist, lecturer, and demonstrator in all kinds of metalsmithing including jewelry, copper hollow forms, and blacksmithing.  He’s written more than 40 technical articles for various magazines such as the Anvils Ring and Anvil Magazine.  So a JayBurn Journal titled “Punches, Drifts, Hammers and Top tools”.  Show Notes: To produce a tool of quality the smith should use tool or alloy steels. Tool steels can be bought new or as a drop or discontinued stock or as “road kill” recycled steel scraps. The average blacksmith shop has adequate resources to forge, normalize, anneal and heat treat many tool steels safely and most available tools steels can be forged and heat treated by using modified methods of the manufacturers recommended procedures. Steel is a body-centered cubic crystal at room temperature. When heated to critical temperature, iron and steel undergo a phase change and become a face-centered cubic crystal structure.  The hardening process changes the internal structure of the steel to form austenite.  When quenched, the austenite is transformed into martensite, the hardest constituent in steel. Most tool steels generally trade one quality for another: wear resistance vs. toughness and accuracy vs. red hardness. Wear resistance is preferable when the tool must hold an edge or stand up to continued service.  Toughness is needed for tools that are used under stress that may cause breakage.  Accuracy addresses machining after forging and the ability to retain shape after heat treating.  Red Hardness is the ability to retain shape and hardness when used at high temperatures (punching, chiseling, drifting). Normalizing – most, but not all, tool and alloy steels are normalized after forging by air cooling to remove most of the stress introduced by the forging process. Annealing – heating to critical temperature (nonmagnetic) and slowly cooling will restore varying degrees of softness in tools steels. This requires burying the steel in wood ash, lime, dry dirt or sand.  You can use vermiculite, but know that you should wear a respirator because it contains asbestos. Machining – Most, if not all, tools require some grinding, filing or sanding after forging and before heat treating, as annealed steel is in a softer state and is obviously easier to grind or sand. Hardening – tool steels are heated to a specified critical temperature and quenched in the correct medium for optimum hardening. Tools steels are usually classified as air, water or oil hardening.  Air hardening is accomplished by heating to critical temperature and cooling in still air.  Water hardening is usually done in a 5 – 10% brine solution.  Oil hardening is accomplished in commercial heat treating oils or vegetable oils. Tempering – hardening will produce maximum hardness and must be softened or tempered because the steel is too brittle at this point. The tool should be tempered as soon as possible after hardening.  Tempering temperatures usually run between 300 – 600 f. W-1 tool steel – a straight carbon, water hardening tool steel that tends to chip or break. Old files were made from W-1 O -1 tool steel – a straight carbon, oil hardening steel classified for coldwork, chasing and repousse. S series tool steel – very tough and exhibit very good red hardness. Due to varying amounts of tungsten and chromium, it can be a bit tough to forge. 4140 – a chromium molybdenum alloy steel that has great toughness, resists torque and can be used as punches, hammers and top tools. 4340 tool steel – a close relative to 4140 but with some added nickel. NEVER quench or cool in water, use only oil.

The surface of an ordered Pt80Fe20(110) crystal exhibits (1×2) and (1×3) reconstructions depending on the annealing treatment after ion bombardment. The (1×3) structure occurs after annealing in the range 750 to 900 K. Annealing above 1000 K leads to the (1×2) structure, which is, from the present result, unambiguously attributed to the same geometrical reconstruction as Pt(110) but with smaller relaxation amplitudes: a detailed low-energy electron-diffraction analysis concludes to a missing-row structure with row pairing in layers 2 and 4 accompanied by a buckling in layers 3 and 5. The top layer spacing is contracted by 13%, and further relaxations are detectable down to the fifth layer. The specific diffraction spots associated with the bulk chemical ordering along the dense [1¯10] rows are very weak: The I(V) analysis shows that this chemical ordering is absent in the outermost ‘‘visible’’ rows but gradually recovers over five to six layers deep. General Pt enrichment is found in the surface ‘‘visible’’ rows (in layers 1–3), but segregation and order yield a subtle redistribution of Pt and Fe atoms in deeper rows: For example, in layer 2, the visible row is Pt rich, whereas the other row (buried under layer 1) is enriched with Fe. Because of the many parameters considered, a fit procedure was applied to a large data basis to solve the structure; the results were confirmed and illustrated subsequently by a standard I(V) analysis for the most relevant parameters. The final r factors are RDE=0.36, RP=0.34, and RZJ=0.14 for two beam sets at normal and oblique incidence consisting of 26 and 21 beams, respectively.

Positron lifetime measurements have been performed to study vacancy defects in Hg0.78Cd0.22Te. Post-growth annealing under various Hg vapour pressure conditions have been used to create a well-defined number of Hg vacancies. The sensitivity range of the positron annihilation method was found to be 1015 < cHgvac
