While a bit is the fundamental unit of binary classical information, a qubit is a fundamental unit of quantum information. In quantum information processing (QIP), it is customary to call the qubits under study as system ...

In this thesis, we investigate gravitation in light-cone gauge. There are various motivations to study pure gravity, in four dimensions, as a field theory in light-cone gauge. These include recent results pertaining to ...

In Polymer Electrolyte Membrane (PEM) fuel cells, the PEM is sandwiched between the electrodes to facilitate the proton transport from anode to cathode. A molecular study of structural and dynamical properties of various ...

Glycoconjugates are very important classes of compounds in biology. They consist of carbohydrates of varying size and complexity, covalently linked to non-sugar moieties such as proteins, peptides, and lipids. Advances in ...

Environment- and conformation-sensitive fluorescent nucleoside analogs are very useful in studying the structure and recognition properties of nucleic acids. Although several structurally diverse nucleoside analogs exhibiting ...

Carbohydrates are recognized as information-rich biomolecules that play a major role in the human body. The surface of all mammalian cells is covered with carbohydrates that are attached to proteins and lipids embedded on ...

Cell dimensions are defined for each species. Several cellular pathways guarantee faithful duplication of cell during binary fission. However, phenotypic heterogeneity has been observed in genetically homogenous populations. ...
