Global aspects of C/N interactions determining plant-environment interactions.
The atomic C:N ratio in photolithotrophs is a function of their content of nucleic acids, proteins, lipids, polysaccharides, and other organic materials, and varies from about 5 in some protein-rich microalgae to much higher values in macroalgae and in higher plants with relatively more structural and energy storage materials. These differences in C:N ratios among organisms means that there is ...
متن کاملQuantum Zeno effect and the impossibility of determining the quantum state of a single system
The quantum Zeno effect of a single system is the effect of a series of measurements on the unitary time evolution of the system and on the ability to monitor this time evolution using the measurement results. This effect is shown to be equivalent to that of the indetermination of the quantum state of a single system @Phys. Rev. Lett. 74, 4106 ~1995!#, in which one considers the statistics of t...
متن کاملObjective properties from subjective quantum states: environment as a witness.
We study the emergence of objective properties in open quantum systems. In our analysis, the environment is promoted from a passive role of a reservoir selectively destroying quantum coherence to an active role of amplifier selectively proliferating information about the system. We show that only preferred pointer states of the system can leave a redundant and therefore easily detectable imprin...
متن کاملDetermining a quantum state by means of a single apparatus.
The unknown state rho of a quantum system S is determined by letting it interact with an auxiliary system A, the initial state of which is known. A one-to-one mapping can thus be realized between the density matrix rho and the probabilities of the occurrence of the eigenvalues of a single and factorized observable of S+A, so that rho can be determined by repeated measurements using a single app...
متن کاملEmergence of circadian and photoperiodic system level properties from interactions
Daily patterns of behavior and physiology in animals in temperate zones often differ substantially between summer and winter. In mammals, this may be a direct consequence of seasonal changes of activity of the suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN). The purpose of this study was to understand such variation on the basis of the interaction between pacemaker neurons. Computer simulation demonstrates that ...
