Student-Athletes’ Attitudes and Beliefs Towards Social Media
The purpose of this study was to identify the attitudes and beliefs of student athletes towards social media. To address this question, student athletes completed a survey focused specifically on: the image they present on social media profiles, content included, and their thoughts on the social media education provided by their athletic department. Student athlete (SA) responses were also compared to non-athletes (NA) for a better understanding of social media profiles. Frequencies showed strong similarities in a number of content shared or not shared, like humorous photos (SA 74.1% and NA 73.3%) and sexy photos (SA 82.4% and NA 82.6%). Differences were also present in a Man Whitney U-test. The significant differences all scored below
Response of the Strongly-Driven Jaynes-Cummings Oscillator
We analyze the Jaynes-Cummings model of quantum optics, in the
strong-dispersive regime. In the bad cavity limit and on timescales short
compared to the atomic coherence time, the dynamics are those of a nonlinear
oscillator. A steady-state non-perturbative semiclassical analysis exhibits a
finite region of bistability delimited by a pair of critical points, unlike the
usual dispersive bistability from a Kerr nonlinearity. This analysis explains
our quantum trajectory simulations that show qualitative agreement with recent
experiments from the field of circuit quantum electrodynamics.Comment: 5 pages, 3 figure
Improved Superconducting Qubit Readout by Qubit-Induced Nonlinearities
In dispersive readout schemes, qubit-induced nonlinearity typically limits
the measurement fidelity by reducing the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) when the
measurement power is increased. Contrary to seeing the nonlinearity as a
problem, here we propose to use it to our advantage in a regime where it can
increase the SNR. We show analytically that such a regime exists if the qubit
has a many-level structure. We also show how this physics can account for the
high-fidelity avalanchelike measurement recently reported by Reed {\it et al.}
[arXiv:1004.4323v1].Comment: 4 pages, 5 figure
