We compute the orbital angular momentum L_{z} of an s-wave paired superfluid in the presence of an axisymmetric multiply quantized vortex. For vortices with a winding number |k|>1, we find that in the weak-pairing BCS regime, L_{z} is significantly reduced from its value ℏNk/2 in the Bose-Einstein condensation (BEC) regime, where N is the total number of fermions. This deviation results from the presence of unpaired fermions in the BCS ground state, which arise as a consequence of spectral flow along the vortex subgap states. We support our results analytically and numerically by solving the Bogoliubov-de Gennes equations within the weak-pairing BCS regime.

The energy landscape of multiply connected superconducting structures is ruled by fluxoid quantization due to the implied single-valuedness of the complex wave function. The transitions and interaction between these energy states, each defined by a specific phase winding number, are governed by classical and/or quantum phase slips. Understanding these events requires the ability to probe, noninvasively, the state of the ring.

This article proposes a novel design for an in-memory computing SRAM, the DAM SRAM CORE, which integrates storage and computational functionality within a unified 11T SRAM cell and enables the performance of large-scale parallel Multiply-Accumulate (MAC) operations within the SRAM array. This design not only improves the area efficiency of the individual cells but also realizes a compact layout. A key highlight of this design is its employment of a dynamic aXNOR-based computation mode, which significantly reduces the consumption of both dynamic and static power during the computational process within the array.

Gravity simulators are laboratory systems in which small excitations such as sound or surface waves behave as fields propagating on a curved spacetime geometry. The analogy between gravity and fluids requires vanishing viscosity, a feature naturally realized in superfluids such as liquid helium or cold atomic clouds. Such systems have been successful in verifying key predictions of quantum field theory in curved spacetime.

With a circular pump, predictions were made for a spontaneous rotating vortex lattice packed by singly quantized vortices. If the circular pump is replaced by an annular pump, singly quantized vortices are absorbed into the central hole and form a multiply quantized vortex.

Wearable Artificial Intelligence-of-Things (AIoT) devices exhibit the need to be resource and energy-efficient. In this paper, we introduced a quantized multilayer perceptron (qMLP) for converting ECG signals to binary image, which can be combined with binary convolutional neural network (bCNN) for classification. We deploy our model into a low-power and low-resource field programmable gate array (FPGA) fabric.
