'Elements of Quantum Information' introduces the reader to the fascinating field of quantum information processing, which lives on the interface between computer science, physics, mathematics, and engineering. This interdisciplinary branch of science thrives on the use of quantum mechanics as a resource for high potential modern applications. With its wide coverage of experiments, applications, and specialized topics - all written by renowned experts - 'Elements of Quantum Information' provides an indispensable up-to-date account of the state of the art of this rapidly advancing field and takes the reader straight up to the frontiers of current research. The articles have first appeared as a special issue of the journal 'Fortschritte der Physik/Progress of Physics'. Since then, they have been carefully updated. The book will be an inspiring source of information and insight for anyone researching and specializing in experiments and theory of quantum information.
Im letzten Jahrzehnt erschienen zahlreiche Beiträge, die den transnationalen Charakter des Faschismus untersuchten, wenige jedoch gingen auf die Verstrickungen und Einflüsse zwischen dem Dritten Reich und den rechtsradikalen Bewegungen der deutschen Minderheiten in Südosteuropa ein. Der vorliegen- de Band möchte diese Lücke schließen, indem er Untersuchungen über die NS-Bewegungen unter den Deutschen in Rumänien, Ungarn, Jugoslawien und der Tschechoslowakei sowie deren Beziehungen zu Deutschland veröffentlicht. Die Kapitel behandeln Aspekte wie das Anwachsen der NS-Bewegung unter den jungen "Volksdeutschen", das Kulturleben, die Veränderungen in der deutschsprachigen Presse oder die Ressourcen-Mobilisierung zur Unterstützung des von Hitler geführten Krieges. Besondere Aufmerksamkeit wird dem Transfer von Praktiken in Politik, Ideologie und Propaganda geschenkt.

"Management of the difficult airway remains one of the highest risk procedures commonly performed by emergency medicine (EM) physicians.1 Providers must have a thorough understanding of airway management, the anatomic and contextual predictors of a difficult airway, and best practices to manage these considerations. Preparation, planning, and familiarity with proper positioning and technique are essential to ensure that these challenging situations are managed successfully"--
Mathematical Analysis of Evolution, Information, and Complexity deals with the analysis of evolution, information and complexity. The time evolution of systems or processes is a central question in science, this text covers a broad range of problems including diffusion processes, neuronal networks, quantum theory and cosmology. Bringing together a wide collection of research in mathematics, information theory, physics and other scientific and technical areas, this new title offers elementary and thus easily accessible introductions to the various fields of research addressed in the book.
The book focuses on the threat to free self-development and the effort to ward off a perceived threat of extinction as well as the development of self-preservation forces. The challenges for ethnic and religious minorities in the 19th–21st centuries are explained and unfolded against the historical background that serves as a frame of reference. The royal privileges granted in medieval Hungary were abolished in the mid-19th century. The German-speaking people’s church (Saxones) in Transylvania founded on this had to reorient itself, although a pioneer region of religious freedom had established itself behind the “Ottoman Curtain”. Since the reception of the Reformation, the “Saxone...
This comprehensive book provides practical guidance on the care of the critical patient in the emergency department. It focuses on the ED physician or provider working in a community hospital where, absent the consulting specialists found in a large academic center, the provider must evaluate and stabilize critically ill and injured patients alone. Structured in an easily accessible format, chapters present fundamental information in tables, bullet points, and flow diagrams. Emergency medicine scenarios covered across 38 chapters include acute respiratory failure, spinal cord Injuries, seizures and status epilepticus, care of the newborn, and end-of-life care. Written by experts in the field, Emergency Department Critical Care is an essential resource for practicing emergency physicians and trainees, internists and family physicians, advance practice nurses, and physician’s assistants who provide care in emergency departments and urgent care centers.
Sexual brokenness permeates our culture and is often a source of fear, shame, or secret sin for emerging adults within the church. But as we experience love, joy, and intimacy with God and others, sexual shame and sin lose their power. Incorporating peer-to-peer leadership, this small group curriculum invites us to seek sexual maturity and discipleship in the context of community.
