Abstract: While a qubit control system (e.g., a laser system) is in a first configuration, it causes a qubit state (as represented as a point on the surface of a Bloch sphere) of a quantum state carrier (QSC), e.g., an atom, to rotate in a first direction from an initial qubit state to a first configuration qubit state. While the qubit control system is in a second configuration, it causes the QSC state to rotate in a second direction opposite the first direction from the first configuration qubit state to a second configuration qubit state. The second configuration qubit state is read out as a |0 or |1. Repeating these actions results in a distribution of |0s and |1s that can be used to determine which of the two configurations results in higher Rabi frequencies. Iterating the above for other pairs of configurations can identify a configuration that delivers the most power to the QSC and thus yields the highest Rabi frequency.

Abstract: Methods, compositions, and kits for adhering polymers and other materials to another material, and in particular to bone or bone-like structures or surfaces. A composition of matter includes a urethane dimethacrylate-methyl methacrylate copolymer with a plurality of first polymer regions based on urethane dimethacrylate and a plurality of second polymer regions based on methyl methacrylate. The method includes placing an orthopedic joint implant having an attachment surface in a joint space, applying a first non-urethane-containing precursor, a second urethane-containing precursor, and a initiator to the attachment surface; contacting the first and second precursors and the initiator with the joint surface; and copolymerizing the first and second precursors and forming an adhesive copolymer and attaching the implant to the joint.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided in order to avoid ingesting the entire contents of one or more data sources. An object may be associated with one or more pieces/fragments of data that can be stored in different data sources. When a request for the object is initiated, a search for those pieces/fragments of data can be performed. Nodes associated with each data source may generate data queries appropriate for its corresponding data source, retrieve, and if needed transform the data into an object-based data structure. Any pieces/fragments of data that have been discovered and retrieved can be joined, e.g., by an application programming interface server, and forwarded to a requesting client or application. In this way, only data relevant to the object is obtained. Moreover, object versioning can be employed so that the most up-to-date data is obtained.
