Revisiting the T2K data using different models for the neutrino-nucleus cross sections
We present a three-flavour fit to the recent \nu\mu --> \nu e and \nu\mu -->
\nu\mu T2K oscillation data with different models for the neutrino-nucleus
cross section. We show that, even for a limited statistics, the allowed regions
and best fit points in the (\theta_{13},\delta_{CP}) and (\theta_{23},\Delta
m^2_{atm}) planes are affected if, instead of using the Fermi Gas model to
describe the quasielastic cross section, we employ a model including the
multinucleon emission channel.Comment: 13 pages, 12 figures. A new section on the inverted hierarchy added.

Multiparticle Quantum Superposition and Stimulated Entanglement by Parity Selective Amplification of Entangled States
A multiparticle quantum superposition state has been generated by a novel
phase-selective parametric amplifier of an entangled two-photon state. This
realization is expected to open a new field of investigations on the
persistence of the validity of the standard quantum theory for systems of
increasing complexity, in a quasi decoherence-free environment. Because of its
nonlocal structure the new system is expected to play a relevant role in the
modern endeavor on quantum information and in the basic physics of
entanglement.Comment: 13 pages and 3 figure
Muon capture in the front end of the IDS neutrino factory
We discuss the design of the muon capture front end of the neutrino factory
International Design Study. In the front end, a proton bunch on a target
creates secondary pions that drift into a capture transport channel, decaying
into muons. A sequence of rf cavities forms the resulting muon beams into
strings of bunches of differing energies, aligns the bunches to (nearly) equal
central energies, and initiates ionization cooling. The muons are then
accelerated to high energy where their decays provide neutrino beams. For the
International Design Study (IDS), a baseline design must be developed and
optimized for an engineering and cost study. We present a baseline design that
can be used to establish the scope of a future neutrino Factory facility.Comment: 3 pp. 1st International Particle Accelerator Conference: IPAC'10,

Continuous variable cloning via network of parametric gates
We propose an experimental scheme for the cloning machine of continuous
quantum variables through a network of parametric amplifiers working as
input-output four-port gates.Comment: 4 pages, 2 figures. To appear on Phys. Rev. Let
Contextual Realization of the Universal Quantum Cloning Machine and of the Universal-NOT gate by Quantum Injected Optical Parametric Amplification
A simultaneous, contextual experimental demonstration of the two processes of
cloning an input qubit and of flipping it into the orthogonal qubit is
reported. The adopted experimental apparatus, a Quantum-Injected Optical
Parametric Amplifier (QIOPA) is transformed simultaneously into a Universal
Optimal Quantum Cloning Machine (UOQCM) and into a Universal NOT
quantum-information gate. The two processes, indeed forbidden in their exact
form for fundamental quantum limitations, will be found to be universal and
optimal, i.e. the measured fidelity of both processes F<1 will be found close
to the limit values evaluated by quantum theory. A contextual theoretical and
experimental investigation of these processes, which may represent the basic
difference between the classical and the quantum worlds, can reveal in a
unifying manner the detailed structure of quantum information. It may also
enlighten the yet little explored interconnections of fundamental axiomatic
properties within the deep structure of quantum mechanics. PACS numbers:

Khasiat “Si Biji Manis Bertongkol” Menjadi Susu sebagai Alternatif Penambah Asam Folat Selama Kehamilan
- Sweet corn - sweet corn ( Zea mays L. ) is one of the world's most important horticultural crops in addition to wheat and rice . Another a source of carbohydrates, corn is also the seasonal crops (annual) . Sweet corn provides a rich source of folic acid; health benefits for pregnant women and fetuses; can prevent underweight newborns , reducing the risk of birth defects , and it is important for fetal brain growth. One of the new breakthroughs to develop products which process them into sweet corn milk that has not been widely circulated in the community . This is because the price of corn in the market are cheap and I get it so easy. The purpose of this program is implemented (1) determine the potential of sweet corn as materials for milk containing folic acid; (2) review the analysis of the quality of sweet corn milk products; and (3) determine the potential of sweet corn milk to meet folic acid during pregnancy. Folic acid analysis methods using spectophotometric .The results obtained from this program are held to determine the content of folic acid in sweet corn, sweet corn milk determine potential to meet folic acid during pregnancy, and to determine the quality of the analysis of sweet corn product
