In addressing the growing model sizes used in simulation environments, I examine adding machine learning techniques to the entities in a model in an effort to produce such side effects as emergent behavior. Distributing the environment in order to increase the efficiency of the simulation also plays an important role in this thesis. The added intelligence of entities may have some affect upon t...

Experimental study of quantum simulation for quantum chemistry with a nuclear magnetic resonance simulator.

Quantum computers have been proved to be able to mimic quantum systems efficiently in polynomial time. Quantum chemistry problems, such as static molecular energy calculations and dynamical chemical reaction simulations, become very intractable on classical computers with scaling up of the system. Therefore, quantum simulation is a feasible and effective approach to tackle quantum chemistry pro...

Bioluminescence centered at about 490 mn occurs in the bacterial luciferase system upon the oxidation of reduced flavin mononucleotide by molecular oxygen. Although excited FMN is the apparent candidate for the emitting molecule, the color of its fluorescence, which is centered at about 525 nm, does not correspond to that of the bioluminescence. In the experiments reported here flavins differin...
