Optimal randomness generation from optical Bell experiments

Genuine randomness can be certified from Bell tests without any detailed assumptions on the working of Guide Base Set the devices with which the test is implemented.An important class of experiments for implementing such tests is optical setups based on polarization measurements of entangled photons distributed from a spontaneous parametric down co

Caudate Nucleus Volume Mediates the Link between Cardiorespiratory Fitness and Cognitive Flexibility in Older Adults

The basal ganglia play a central role in regulating the response selection abilities that are critical for mental flexibility.In neocortical areas, higher cardiorespiratory fitness levels are associated with increased gray matter volume, and these volumetric differences mediate enhanced cognitive performance in a variety of tasks.Here we examine wh

New reports of pathogen spectrum associated with bulb rot and their interactions during the development of rot in tulip

Abstract Bulb rot, a highly damaging disease of tulip plants, has hindered their profitable cultivation worldwide.This rot occurs in both field and storage conditions posing significant challenges.While this disease has been attributed to a range of pathogens, previous investigations have solely examined it within the framework of a single-pathogen
