Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: More physicists today are taking on the role of software developer as part of their research, but software development isn’t always easy or obvious, even for physicists. This practical book teaches essential software development skills to help you automate and accomplish nearly any aspect of research in a physics-based field. Written by two PhDs in nuclear engineering, this book includes practical examples drawn from a working knowledge of physics concepts. You’ll learn how to use the Python programming language to perform everything from collecting and analyzing data to building software and publishing your results. In four parts, this book includes: Getting Started: Jump into Python, the command line, data containers, functions, flow control and logic, and classes and objects Getting It Done: Learn about regular expressions, analysis and visualization, NumPy, storing data in files and HDF5, important data structures in physics, computing in parallel, and deploying software Getting It Right: Build pipelines and software, learn to use local and remote version control, and debug and test your code Getting It Out There: Document your code, process and publish your findings, and collaborate efficiently; dive into software licenses, ownership, and copyright procedures

This book was released on 2010-09-21 with total page 357 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This multi-authored textbook addresses graduate students with a background in physics, mathematics or computer science. No research experience is necessary. Consequently, rather than comprehensively reviewing the vast body of knowledge and literature gathered in the past twenty years, this book concentrates on a number of carefully selected aspects of quantum information theory and technology. Given the highly interdisciplinary nature of the subject, the multi-authored approach brings together different points of view from various renowned experts, providing a coherent picture of the subject matter. The book consists of ten chapters and includes examples, problems, and exercises. The first five present the mathematical tools required for a full comprehension of various aspects of quantum mechanics, classical information, and coding theory. Chapter 6 deals with the manipulation and transmission of information in the quantum realm. Chapters 7 and 8 discuss experimental implementations of quantum information ideas using photons and atoms. Finally, chapters 9 and 10 address ground-breaking applications in cryptography and computation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Fermi Summer School of Physics on "Experimental Quantum Information and Computing" represents a primer on one of the most intriguing and rapidly expanding new areas of physics. In this part, the interest in quantum information (QI) science is due to the discovery that a computer operating on quantum mechanical principles can solve certain important computational problems exponentially faster than any conceivable classical computer. But this interest is also due to the interdisciplinary nature of the field: the rapid growth is attributable, in part, to the stimulating confluence of researchers and ideas from physics, chemistry, mathematics, information theory, and computer science. Physics plays a paramount role in QI science, as we realize that computing is itself a physical process subject to physical laws. The incredible growth of classical computers and information processors in the 20th century stems from Turing's notion that a computer is independent of the physical device actually being used; be they relays, vacuum tubes, or semiconductor transistors. As we strive to build useful quantum information processors into the 21st century, we thus look for any physical system that obeys the laws of quantum mechanics, from single photons and atoms to quantum superconducting devices. These Fermi lectures take us on a journey through these and other promising current experimental candidates for QI processing, spanning quantum optics and laser physics, atomic and molecular physics, physical chemistry, and condensed-matter physics. While this broad coverage of experimental physics represents a challenge to the student, such an appreciation of these fields will be critical in the future success of quantum technology. Indeed, the most exciting feature of QI science is that the technology ultimately leading to a quantum processor is likely presently unknown.

Book excerpt: This monograph provides a mathematical foundation to the theory of quantum information and computation, with applications to various open systems including nano and bio systems. It includes introductory material on algorithm, functional analysis, probability theory, information theory, quantum mechanics and quantum field theory. Apart from standard material on quantum information like quantum algorithm and teleportation, the authors discuss findings on the theory of entropy in C*-dynamical systems, space-time dependence of quantum entangled states, entangling operators, adaptive dynamics, relativistic quantum information, and a new paradigm for quantum computation beyond the usual quantum Turing machine. Also, some important applications of information theory to genetics and life sciences, as well as recent experimental and theoretical discoveries in quantum photosynthesis are described.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Digital Physics: The Physics of Information, Computation, Self-Organization and Consciousness Q&A is another digital physics book, by the Congolese-born, British-based, Ediho Lokanga. A fascinating book by the African scientist. In it, he attempts to refute several criticisms of his books and offers further arguments, insights, clarifications, and developments of the main idea of digital physics (DP), offering an original vision of reality. In this book, he presents a brief survey of the main idea discussed in his three previous books. For many years now, physicists have been trying to come up with a wonderful theory which will explain everything in the universe and make sense of everything around us. This would be a staggering and wonderful achievement. Digital physicists have added their names to the quest for a ToE from the viewpoint of computation. Physicists are busy attempting to synthesize quantum and relativistic physics. A rich variety of approaches has emerged, and these are competing against each other. The most prominent include string theory (ST), loop quantum gravity (LQG), causal sets, Euclidean gravity, topological quantum field theory (TQFT), non-commutative geometry, Penrose's twistor theory etc. Digital physicists believe they may be able to provide a possible solution to the problem of reconciling general relativity (GR) with quantum mechanics (QM) in the ongoing effort towards a possible theory of quantum gravity, which will better explain the universe in which we live. This would represent a leap forward in the human species' quest for a ToE. For students and researchers this DP Q&A can act as a starting point and an up-to-date reference for developing such a broader perspective. The Q&A presents an overview of some of the many ideas, problems and outstanding philosophical and technical issues. The book introduces the problems of quantum gravity (QG) and ToE, and raises some of the fundamental issues that researchers are trying to address. The book and Q&A are presented at an intermediate and advanced level, but use a non-technical approach so that the reader is exposed to the basic ideas as well as an overview of the results achieved so far.
