Schemes for robust quantum computation with polar molecules: analysis of experimental feasibility (2007)

Kuznetsova, Elena, Côté, Robin, Kirby, Kate, Yelin, Susanne

We analyse recently proposed physical implementations of a quantum computer based on polar molecules. A set of general requirements for a molecular system is presented, which would provide an optimal...

Absorption spectrum in the wings of the potassium second resonance doublet broadened by helium (2007)

Shindo, François, Babb, James F., Kirby, Kate, Yoshino, Kouichi

We have measured the reduced absorption coefficients occurring in the wings of the potassium 4S-5P doublet lines at 404.414 nm and at 404.720 nm broadened by helium gas at pressures of several...

Opportunities for discovery: Theory and computation in Basic Energy Sciences (2005)

Harmon, Bruce, Kirby, Kate, McCurdy, C. William

New scientific frontiers, recent advances in theory, and rapid increases in computational capabilities have created compelling opportunities for theory and computation to advance the scientific...

Timing and severity of community acquired respiratory virus infections after myeloablative versus non-myeloablative hematopoietic stem cell transplantation

Schiffer, Joshua T., Kirby, Kate, Sandmaier, Brenda, Storb, Rainer, Corey, Lawrence, Boeckh, Michael

Respiratory virus infections are important causes of morbidity and mortality after hematopoietic cell transplantation. Their clinical course can be severe with progression to lower respiratory tract...
