Future Projections of EURO‐CORDEX Raw and Bias‐Corrected Daily Maximum Wind Speeds Over Scandinavia

Twenty historical and future Coordinated Regional Climate Downscaling Experiment ensemble for Europe simulations are bias corrected to investigate the future changes in the daily maximum wind speed over Scandinavia. We use quantile mapping to adjust the wind for the historical period (1985–2014) and quantile delta mapping for two future periods (2041–2070, 2071–2100, RCP8.5) with the 3-km spatial resolution NORA3 hindcast as the reference data set. Decomposing the variance, we find that most of the inter-model spread in the bias and the response to climate change is due to the regional climate model over land and mainly to the general climate model over sea. On average, the mean daily maximum wind speed is projected to increase everywhere except along the western coast of Norway and Denmark. In summer, we see an opposite sign over Sweden and Finland. The Norwegian Sea experiences weaker mean and high wind whereas the Baltic Sea experiences a strengthening. Bias correction influences the amplitude of the response, not the response pattern. Wind speed distributions can have different shapes in the future, with, for example, a flattening of the distribution off the coast of Norway with more frequent weak and very strong winds. Apart from a few locations in Norway, we find an increase in the number of days in the local highest historical wind category. Overall, summer exhibits opposite signals compared to the three other seasons. At country scale, the sign of the change in the mean and 98th percentile varies greatly depending on the region and among the simulations, especially for Norway.

Miniature optical planar camera based on a wide-angle metasurface doublet corrected for monochromatic aberrations

Optical metasurfaces are two-dimensional arrays of nano-scatterers that modify optical wavefronts at subwavelength spatial resolution. They are poised to revolutionize optics by enabling complex low-cost systems where multiple metasurfaces are lithographically stacked and integrated with electronics. For imaging applications, metasurface stacks can perform sophisticated image corrections and can be directly integrated with image sensors. Here we demonstrate this concept with a miniature flat camera integrating a monolithic metasurface lens doublet corrected for monochromatic aberrations, and an image sensor. The doublet lens, which acts as a fisheye photographic objective, has a small f-number of 0.9, an angle-of-view larger than 60° × 60°, and operates at 850 nm wavelength with 70% focusing efficiency. The camera exhibits nearly diffraction-limited image quality, which indicates the potential of this technology in the development of optical systems for microscopy, photography, and computer vision.

Publisher Correction: Imaging the square of the correlated two-electron wave function of a hydrogen molecule

The tool box for imaging molecules is well-equipped today. Some of the techniques visualize the mean geometrical structure, others image the single electron density or single electron orbitals. Molecules, however, are many-body systems for which the correlation between the constituents is often decisive and the spatial and the momentum distribution of one electron depend on the positions and momenta of the other electrons and the nuclei. Such correlations have escaped direct observation by imaging techniques so far. We implement an imaging scheme which visualizes correlations between electrons by coincident detection of the electronic and nuclear fragments after high energy photofragmentation. We use this technique to examine parts of the H 2 two-electron wave function in which electron-electron correlation beyond the mean-field level is prominent and we visualize the dependence of the correlated two-electron wave function on the internuclear distance. High energy photoelectrons are shown to be a powerful tool for molecular imaging and our study paves the way for future time resolved imaging of electron correlations at free electron lasers and laser based X-ray sources. (The original version of this Article contained an error in the fifth sentence of the first paragraph of the 'Application on H 2 ' section of the Results, which incorrectly read 'The role of electron correlation is quite apparent in this presentation: Fig. 1a is empty for the uncorrelated Hartree-Fock wave function, since projection of the latter wave function onto the 2pσ u orbital is exactly zero, while this is not the case for the fully correlated wave function (Fig. 1d); also, Fig. 1b, c for the uncorrelated description are identical, while Fig. 1e, f for the correlated case are significantly different.' The correct version replaces 'Fig. 1e, f' with 'Fig. 2e and f'. This has been corrected in both the PDF and HTML versions of the Article.)

Enhancing detection of topological order by local error correction

The exploration of topologically-ordered states of matter is a long-standing goal at the interface of several subfields of the physical sciences. Such states feature intriguing physical properties such as long-range entanglement, emergent gauge fields and non-local correlations, and can aid in realization of scalable fault-tolerant quantum computation. However, these same features also make creation, detection, and characterization of topologically-ordered states particularly challenging. Motivated by recent experimental demonstrations, we introduce a paradigm for quantifying topological states—locally error-corrected decoration (LED)—by combining methods of error correction with ideas of renormalization-group flow. Our approach allows for efficient and robust identification of topological order, and is applicable in the presence of incoherent noise sources, making it particularly suitable for realistic experiments. We demonstrate the power of LED using numerical simulations of the toric code under a variety of perturbations. We subsequently apply it to an experimental realization, providing new insights into a quantum spin liquid created on a Rydberg-atom simulator. Finally, we extend LED to generic topological phases, including those with non-abelian order.

Autonomous quantum error correction and fault-tolerant quantum computation with squeezed cat qubits

We propose an autonomous quantum error correction scheme using squeezed cat (SC) code against excitation loss in continuous-variable systems. Through reservoir engineering, we show that a structured dissipation can stabilize a two-component SC while autonomously correcting the errors. The implementation of such dissipation only requires low-order nonlinear couplings among three bosonic modes or between a bosonic mode and a qutrit. While our proposed scheme is device independent, it is readily implementable with current experimental platforms such as superconducting circuits and trapped-ion systems. Compared to the stabilized cat, the stabilized SC has a much lower dominant error rate and a significantly enhanced noise bias. Furthermore, the bias-preserving operations for the SC have much lower error rates. In combination, the stabilized SC leads to substantially better logical performance when concatenating with an outer discrete-variable code. The surface-SC scheme achieves more than one order of magnitude increase in the threshold ratio between the loss rate κ 1 and the engineered dissipation rate κ 2 . Under a practical noise ratio κ 1 /κ 2 = 10 -3 , the repetition-SC scheme can reach a 10 -15 logical error rate even with a small mean excitation number of 4, which already suffices for practically useful quantum algorithms.

Author Correction: Carbon budgets for 1.5 and 2 °C targets lowered by natural wetland and permafrost feedbacks

In the version of this Article originally published in July 2018, a parallelization coding problem, which meant that a subset of model grid cells were subjected to erroneous updating of atmospheric gas concentrations, resulted in incorrect calculation of atmospheric CO 2 for these grid cells, and therefore underestimation of the carbon uptake by land through vegetation growth and eventual increases to soil carbon stocks. Having re-run the simulations using the corrected code, the authors found that the original estimates of the impact of the natural wetland methane feedback were overestimated. The permafrost and natural wetland methane feedback requires lower permissible emissions of 9–15% to achieve climate stabilization at 1.5 °C, compared with the original published estimate of 17–23%. The Article text, Table 1 and Fig. 3 have been updated online to reflect the revised numerical estimates. The Supplementary Information file has also been amended, with Supplementary Figs 6, 7, 8 and 9 replaced with revised versions produced using the corrected model output. As the strength of feedbacks remain significant, still require inclusion in climate policy and are nonlinear with global warming, the overall conclusions of the Article remain unchanged.

Author Correction: Informed-Proteomics: open-source software package for top-down proteomics

Correction to: Nature Methods 14, 909–914, https://doi.org/10.1038/nmeth.4388 (2017), published online 7 August 2017. In the version of this article initially published, the authors erroneously reported the search mode that was used for ProSightPC 3.0 in the Online Methods and in Supplementary Table 3. The results presented in Fig. 5 were obtained with ‘absolute mass’ search mode, not ‘biomarker discovery’ search mode. The ‘biomarker discovery’ search mode of ProSightPC 3.0 looks for subsequences of those contained in the annotated proteoform database (e.g., truncated forms from degradation and/or cleavage). This search mode is expected to generate similar numbers of identifications as Informed-Proteomics, but is also expected to take dramatically longer (~480 CPU hours). Unfortunately, because of these heavy computational requirements, the authors were unable to complete an analysis using this search mode. They chose to use ‘absolute mass’ mode to illustrate the effect of search mode and database choice on the results. ‘Absolute mass’ mode is the most restrictive of the search modes illustrated in Fig. 5, as it searches only for proteoforms explicitly listed in the proteoform database within a user-defined mass tolerance. In addition, in the supplementary information originally published online, Supplementary Table 3 incorrectly stated that ProSightPC v3.0 was used in ‘biomarker discovery’ mode. ‘Absolute mass’ mode was the mode actually used in this comparison. These errors have been corrected in the HTML and PDF versions of this article and in the associated supplementary information.
