The eighth and ninth lessons were devoted to Schrödinger cats produced in cavity quantum electrodynamics experiments. An atom interacts with the field stored in a high-surge cavity, and its strongly non-linear coupling with the field produces photonic …

Effective blood pressure control, especially of the systolic component, is of primary importance in both primary and secondary prevention of Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Events. Similarly, systolic blood pressure control is important in the primary …

The seventh lesson was devoted to the study of nonlinearities in Bose Einstein condensates, due to interactions between atoms. These interactions, linked to elastic collisions in the sample, have the effect of introducing a non-linear term into the …

The sixth lesson dealt with the study of matter waves (atomic optics). For some years now, we've been able to produce ultra-cold samples of atoms forming Bose Einstein condensates, in which a large number of atoms are all in the same wave function, with …

The fifth lesson described field states in phase space, introducing two important functions defined in this space, Wigner's Q-function and W-function. These functions provide a pictorial and intuitive description of Fock states, coherent states and their …

A Collège de France - CNED coproduction Abstract By associating a method - comparative studies - with a process in progress - the internationalization of law -, this Chair looks to the future, however uncertain that future may be. Admittedly, current …

The fourth lesson addressed the problem of non-linear splitters in quantum optics. After noting that the photon distribution achieved in the final channels of a linear splitter did not in any case allow the realization of a mesoscopic superposition of the …

The incidence of end-stage renal disease (ESRD) is increasing in the United States (US) population USRDS, and the prevalence of chronic kidney disease also appears to be increasing, in parallel with increased surveillance, routine reporting of estimated …

Abstract This talk summarizes our recent attempts to integrate action and perception within a single optimization framework. We start with a statistical formulation of Helmholtz's ideas about neural energy to furnish a model of perceptual inference and …

The third lesson dealt with the analysis of interference experiments in quantum optics. It began with a description of the linear splitter blades that are essential ingredients in these experiments. It is these blades that separate and recombine the …

Abstract We present a variational treatment of dynamic models that furnishes the time-dependent conditional densities of a system's states and the time-independent densities of its parameters. These obtain by maximising the variational free energy of the …
