We theoretically investigate the mapping of the supercurrent distribution in a planar superconductor-normal-superconductor junction in the presence of a perpendicular magnetic field via the scanning gate microscopy technique. We find that the distribution of counterpropagating supercurrents aligned in Josephson vortices can be mapped by the change in the critical current induced by the tip of the scanning probe if the flux in the junction is set close to the maxima of the Fraunhofer pattern. Instead, when the magnetic field drives the junction to a supercurrent minimum in the Fraunhofer pattern, the superconducting phase adapts, and the tip always increases the supercurrent. The perpendicular magnetic field leads to the formation of Josephson vortices, whose extension for highly transparent junctions depends on the current circulation direction. We show that this leads to an asymmetric supercurrent distribution in the junction and that this can be revealed by scanning gate microscopy. We explain our findings on the basis of numerical calculations for both short- and long-junction limits and provide a phenomenological model for the observed phenomena.

We present two classical algorithms for the simulation of universal quantum circuits on n qubits constructed from c instances of Clifford gates and t arbitrary-angle Z-rotation gates such as T gates. Our algorithms complement each other by performing best in different parameter regimes. The Estimate algorithm produces an additive precision estimate of the Born-rule probability of a chosen measurement outcome with the only source of run-time inefficiency being a linear dependence on the stabilizer extent (with scaling approximately equal to 1.17t for T gates). Our algorithm is state of the art for this task: as an example, in approximately 13 h (on a standard desktop computer), we estimate the Born-rule probability to within an additive error of 0.03, for a 50-qubit, 60 non-Clifford gate quantum circuit with more than 2000 Clifford gates. Our second algorithm, Compute, calculates the probability of a chosen measurement outcome to machine precision with run time O(2t−rt), where r is an efficiently computable, circuit-specific quantity. With high probability, r is very close to min{t,n−w} for random circuits with many Clifford gates, where w is the number of measured qubits. Compute can be effective in surprisingly challenging parameter regimes, e.g., we can randomly sample Clifford+T circuits with n=55, w=5, c=105, and t=80T gates, and then compute the Born-rule probability with a run time consistently less than 10 min using a single core of a standard desktop computer. We provide a C+Python implementation of our algorithms and benchmark them using random circuits, the hidden-shift algorithm, and the quantum approximate optimization algorithm.

Since Thailand has now completely stepped into an aged society there are more than 20% of the population aged 60 years and over. There was also an increase in those who had problems with their balance. One of the main difficulties for these people is walking on their own. This paper presents an automatic walking aid for people with balance or walking problems. A specially designed automatic walking aid can be adjusted to six levels of height. It has an anti-collision warning system at a distance of up to 40 centimeters and displays GPS coordinates via SMS when falling. The experimental results of the prototype automatic walking aid showed that the walking aid could work as designed and could help people with balance problems walk more comfortably.

Complex economic models often describe the agent's decisions, i.e. choice of some controlled variables in accordance with criteria set by agents. Unlike purely statistical ones, agent-based models allow to describe processes with different modes, in which the agent's behavior changes quali-tatively when the environment (including the actions of other agents) change. The practical use of mathematical models of complex systems with a number of interacting agents is limited by complexity of their construction and possible errors when dealing with multitude of expressions. computer tools, such as the “Ecomod” system discussed in the article, can substantially reduce the time spent on model creation and processing, and help to coordinate the work of several researchers on the model.
