Robust CNOT gates from almost any interaction
There are many cases where the interaction between two qubits is not
precisely known, but single qubit operations are available. In this paper we
show how, regardless of an incomplete knowledge of the strength or form of the
interaction between two qubits, it is often possible to construct a CNOT gate
which has arbitrarily high fidelity. In particular, we show that oscillations
in the strength of the exchange interaction in solid state Si and Ge structures
are correctable.Comment: 5 pages, 2 figure

Second-order quadrupolar shifts as an NMR probe of fast molecular-scale dynamics in solids
Molecular-scale dynamics on the nanosecond timescale or faster can have a measurable influence on isotropic NMR frequencies of quadrupolar nuclei. Although previously studied in solution, where it is usually referred to as the ‘dynamic shift’, this effect is less well known in solids. Here we demonstrate that multiple-quantum NMR measurements of isotropic quadrupolar shifts are a simple way to probe nanosecond timescale motions in solids. We measure the <sup>11</sup>B (spin I = 3/2) shifts of the resolved boron sites in ortho-carborane as a function of temperature and interpret the results in terms of the known rapid tumbling dynamics

Visual cue training to improve walking and turning after stroke:a study protocol for a multi-centre, single blind randomised pilot trial
Visual information comprises one of the most salient sources of information used to control walking and the dependence on vision to maintain dynamic stability increases following a stroke. We hypothesize, therefore, that rehabilitation efforts incorporating visual cues may be effective in triggering recovery and adaptability of gait following stroke. This feasibility trial aims to estimate probable recruitment rate, effect size, treatment adherence and response to gait training with visual cues in contrast to conventional overground walking practice following stroke.Methods/design: A 3-arm, parallel group, multi-centre, single blind, randomised control feasibility trial will compare overground visual cue training (O-VCT), treadmill visual cue training (T-VCT), and usual care (UC). Participants (n = 60) will be randomly assigned to one of three treatments by a central randomisation centre using computer generated tables to allocate treatment groups. The research assessor will remain blind to allocation. Treatment, delivered by physiotherapists, will be twice weekly for 8 weeks at participating outpatient hospital sites for the O-VCT or UC and in a University setting for T-VCT participants.Individuals with gait impairment due to stroke, with restricted community ambulation (gait spee
