Assignee:

THE JOHN HOPKINS UNIVERSITY - BALTIMORE MD

International Classification:

C12Q 1/68

US Classification:

435 6

Abstract:

Improvements on the basic method used for BEAMing increase sensitivity and increase the signal-to-noise ratio. The improvements have permitted the determination of intrinsic error rates of various DNA polymerases and have permitted the detection of rare and subtle mutations in DNA isolated from plasma of cancer patients.

Assignee:

Ford Motor Company - Dearborn MI

International Classification:

F25B 4300
B61G 508

US Classification:

62503

Abstract:

There is provided herein a refrigerant receiver for use in an automotive air conditioning system. The receiver includes a generally cylindrical body, a circular closure member secured at one end of the body and a manifold member configured to engage the closure member. The manifold includes a bottom surface having a stepped configuration which sealingly engages a corresponding stepped surface on the closure member. A single threaded fastener is utilized to secure the manifold to the closure member.

Abstract:

The use of multiple ion chains in a single ion trap for quantum information processing (QIP) systems is described. Each chain can have its own set of laser beams with which to implement and operate quantum gates within that chain, where each chain may therefore correspond to a single quantum computing register or core. Operations can be performed in parallel across all of these chains as they can be treated independently from each other. To implement and operate quantum gates between different chains, neighboring chains are merged into a single, larger chain, in which one can perform quantum gates between any of the ions in the larger chain. The combined chains can then be separated again by another shuttling event as needed. To implement and operate quantum gates between ions which do not occupy neighboring chains, swap gates can be used via a sequence of intervening chains.
