Identifying Merger-Driven and Collapsar-Driven Gamma-Ray Bursts with Precursor based Solely on Prompt Emission

Si-Yuan Zhu, Pak-Hin Thomas Tam, Fu-Wen Zhang, Hui-Ying Deng, Bing Zhang ยท 2026

Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are generally classified as Type~I GRBs, which originate from compact binary mergers, and Type~II GRBs, which originate from massive collapsars. The traditional correspondence โ€ฆ

Open-System Adiabatic Quantum Search under Dephasing

Afaf El Kalai, Peter J. Eder, Christian B. Mendl ยท 2026

Adiabatic quantum algorithms must evolve slowly enough to suppress non-adiabatic transitions while remaining fast enough to be practical. In open systems, this trade-off is reshaped by decoherence. Foโ€ฆ
