Antipsychotic-related constipation (APRC) is one of the most common side effects of taking antipsychotic medication.APRC can seriously impact patient quality of life and is potentially fatal, though the efficacy of current APRC treatments is low for most patients.In this study, we conducted a controlled, pilot randomized, sham-electroacupuncture (S
The CMS experiment is working to integrate an increasing number of High Performance Computing (HPC) resources into its distributed computing infrastructure.The case of the Barcelona Supercomputing Center (BSC) is particularly challenging as severe network restrictions prevent the use of CMS standard computing solutions.The Display console electroni
We demonstrate that genuinely non-Hermitian topological phases and corresponding topological phase transitions can be naturally realized in monitored quantum circuits, exemplified by the paradigmatic non-Hermitian Su-Schrieffer-Heeger model.We emulate this model by a 1D chain of spinless electrons evolving under unitary dynamics and subject to peri
Improving the overall energy efficiency of processes is necessary to reduce costs, lower the specific energy consumption and thereby reduce the direct or indirect emission of gases that contribute to climate change.In many metallurgical processes, a large amount of energy is lost with the off-gas.In metallurgical recycling processes, off-gas often
