Dispersion in Femtosecond Entangled Two-Photon Interference

Significant consideration has recently been given to the process of spontaneous parametric down-conversion in nonlinear crystals pumped by cw lasers [1–4]. The nonclassical properties of entangled two-photon light generated by this process have been used in many experimental schemes to elucidate distinctions between the predictions of classical and quantum physics [5]. Coincidence-count measure...

Resolving the Mystery of the Fine Structure Constant

Resolving a zoological mystery: the kouprey is a real species.

The kouprey is a rare and enigmatic forest ox discovered by scientists in Cambodia only in 1937. Numerous morphological hypotheses have been proposed for the origin of the kouprey: that it is a species closely related to banteng and gaur, two other wild oxen of southeast Asia; a morphologically divergent species placed in a separate genus, named Novibos; a wild species linked to aurochs and dom...

Candida albicans proteinases: resolving the mystery of a gene family.

Fungal infections of mucosal surfaces are extremely common, debilitating and often recurring diseases, which are frequently caused by the yeast Candida albicans. Furthermore, in the severely immunocompromised host, C. albicans may also cause deepseated or even life-threatening systemic infections. In order to colonize, infect and evade host defence mechanisms, C. albicans possesses a repertoire...
