Quantum Numbers

52.3K
It is said that the energy of an electron in an atom is quantized; that is, it can be equal only to certain specific values and can jump from one energy level to another but not transition smoothly or stay between these levels.

The Quantum-Mechanical Model of an Atom02:45

The Quantum-Mechanical Model of an Atom

59.7K
Shortly after de Broglie published his ideas that the electron in a hydrogen atom could be better thought of as being a circular standing wave instead of a particle moving in quantized circular orbits, Erwin Schrödinger extended de Broglie’s work by deriving what is now known as the Schrödinger equation. When Schrödinger applied his equation to hydrogen-like atoms, he was able to reproduce Bohr’s expression for the energy and, thus, the Rydberg formula governing hydrogen spectra.

Protein Networks02:26

Protein Networks

4.6K
An organism can have thousands of different proteins, and these proteins must cooperate to ensure the health of an organism. Proteins bind to other proteins and form complexes to carry out their functions. Many proteins interact with multiple other proteins creating a complex network of protein interactions.
These interactions can be represented through maps depicting protein-protein interaction networks, represented as nodes and edges. Nodes are circles that are representative of a protein,...

What are Estimates?

8.9K
It isn't easy to measure a parameter such as the mean height or the mean weight of a population. So, we draw samples from the population and calculate the mean height or mean weight of the individuals in the sample. This sample data acts as a representative measure of the population parameter. These sample statistics are known as estimates. 
The estimate for the mean of a sample is denoted by ͞x, whereas the mean of the population is designated as μ. Further, parameters such...

Network Covalent Solids02:18

Network Covalent Solids

16.2K
Network covalent solids contain a three-dimensional network of covalently bonded atoms as found in the crystal structures of nonmetals like diamond, graphite, silicon, and some covalent compounds, such as silicon dioxide (sand) and silicon carbide (carborundum, the abrasive on sandpaper). Many minerals have networks of covalent bonds.
To break or to melt a covalent network solid, covalent bonds must be broken. Because covalent bonds are relatively strong, covalent network solids are typically...

Area of Science:

  • Quantum Information Science
  • Quantum Metrology
  • Sensor Networks

Background:

  • Quantum sensor networks can potentially enhance measurement precision.
  • The role of entanglement and global measurements in improving network precision is an open question.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop a general model for quantum sensor networks.
  • To rigorously determine when entanglement or global measurements enhance parameter estimation precision.

Main Methods:

  • Development of a general theoretical model for quantum sensor networks.
  • Application of precise theorems to analyze the advantages of entangled states and global measurements.

Main Results:

  • For many parameter estimation problems, separable states and local measurements are optimal.
  • Entanglement and global measurements offer at most a limited intrinsic advantage for independent parameter estimation.
  • Simultaneous estimation of multiple parameters can be outperformed by independent estimations under broad conditions.

Conclusions:

  • Entanglement is beneficial only when estimating global properties of the entire network.
  • The findings have implications for quantum imaging and magnetic field mapping.
