A Novel Synthesis of Symmetric Trienes
This paper describes a novel synthesis of trienes by treatment of trans-2-alkenyl triphenylphosphonium bromides with BuLi in THF solution. Compounds, 5,7,9-tetradecatriene, 1,6-diphenyl-1,3,5-hexatriene, and 2,6,11,16-tetramethyl-2,6,8,10,14-hexadecapentaene were prepared in the yields of 40%, 9%, and 46%, respectively. Cross-coupling of trans-2-heptenyltriphenylphosphonium bromide and trans-3-phenyl-2-propenyltriphenylphosphonium bromide gave a mixture of 5,7,9-tetradecatriene (10.6%), 1,6-diphenyl-1,3,5-hexatriene (0.5%), and 1-phenyl-1,3,5-decatriene (9.4%)
Demonstration of deterministic and high fidelity squeezing of quantum information
By employing at recent proposal (R. Filip, P. Marek and U.L. Andersen, Phys.
Rev. A {\bf 71}, 042308 (2005) \cite{Filip05.pra}), we experimentally
demonstrate a universal, deterministic and high-fidelity squeezing
transformation of an optical field. It relies only on linear optics, homodyne
detection, feedforward and an ancillary squeezed vacuum state, thus direct
interaction between a strong pump and the quantum state is circumvented. We
demonstrate three different squeezing levels for a coherent state input. This
scheme is highly suitable for the fault-tolerant squeezing transformation in a
continuous variable quantum computer.Comment: 5 pages, 4 figure
Dysplasia Epiphysealis Hemimelica of The Trochlear Epiphysis
Dysplasia epiphysealis hemimelica is an uncommon disorder primarily involving the epiphyes of the lower extremities. We report imaging findings of a case of dysplasia epiphysealis hemimelica involving the trochlear epiphysis of the humerus. Conventional radiography showed irregular ossification in the area of trochlear epiphysis, the finding thought to be diagnostic of this discorder. However, other imaging modalities, such as double contrast arthrography, computed tomography and MR imaging, provided valuable information about the nature and extent of the epiphyseal pathology
