"High-dimensional photonic quantum states provide a powerful route toward scalable quantum communication, networking, and photonic quantum computing due to their large information-encoding capacity. In particular, the time–frequency and photon-number degrees of freedom of entangled photons enable access to a significantly larger Hilbert space compared to conventional two-dimensional quantum systems" Read more

"The impact of a deep-water plunging breaker on a partially submerged vertical structure can generate highly unsteady pressure fields and impulsive loads that affect marine vessels and offshore structures. Most laboratory studies of this problem have employed walls extending to the bed, leaving the mechanics of impacts on structures with shallow draft relative to the wavelength only partially understood" Read more
