this is the result im getting when trying to get dining dollars, is there any other site to do so?

Tried reading this review paper [https://arxiv.org/pdf/1907.06331\] but still was unable to come away with an idea of the 'structure' of a LOQC. I think some diagram with labeled components and their purpose in a system would make a bit more sense to me. Not just a bunch of beamsplitters and waveplates drawn and labelled, but something that has that information plus a more physical expalanation of that components efficiency in regards to loss and other physical properties. I'd be fine reading a paper too if it could convey the same information. Any recommendations?

Title, want to know what the best way to spend the two weeks between now and school is

i submitted a support case on COMSOL and they said that since im a student using the academic classkit license the only way id get any support was if the license admin essentially submitted it for me, so i tried to figure out who that person is but have no clue. anybody have more information about who manages COMSOL access on the COE virtual machines? thank you!

if anyone happens to have experience using comsol for wave optics simulations and wants to help out lmk lol

Hello,

I want to use the Polarizing Beamsplitter (PBS) within a larger system, so I am attempting to add an air boundary (just a rectangle with n=1) to the right of the PBS, but I am getting the result shown in this image link: imglink.cc/i/fkkT6h7BNT

As far as I can tell, in order to create a new domain I need to define the wavevectors in that domain and a phase shift to ensure phase continuity between domains. The wavevector would just be lambda/n_air and the phase shift I calculate using the ODEs that calculated all the prior phase shifts within the PBS, using the new wavevectors I've created. However, I am getting a result that clearly has some noisiness to it and indicates that something is not right. When I change the refractive index of the domain from 1 to 1.6586, the exact refractice index of the adjacent prism, everything works fine and results in the clean image shown: imglink.cc/cdn/ntutmapbAC.png

Changing it from 1 to 1.6585, just 0.0001 less than the refractive index of the adjacent prism, leads to a result almost identical to the first noisy result when n=1. From this I'm assuming that I must be doing something wrong with the wavevectors, as that is the only quantity that would change by a large amount as a result of a tiny change in refractive index. But I have no idea what could be wrong there. Following are some relevant information of the changes I made to the file in order to implement an air domain:

Refractive Index of 'Right Air Domain' = n_air = 1
Interface between right prism and right air domain = x8 = width of PBS divided by 2
k1Airx = k0*n_air = k2Airy k1Airy = 0 = k2Airx
k1Prismx*x8+phi180-k1Airx*x8-phiAirx k2Prismy*x8+phi200-k2Airy*x8-phiAiry
phiAirx and phiAiry are used in the definitions section for the right air domain as phi1 and phi2 respectively.

If you want to see the model, you could find it in this linked forum post. If there are any questions about how I implemented anything I'm more than happy to respond. Thank you for your time!

im a georgia tech student, where vishwanath currently teaches. i checked his rmp reviews and a grand majority of them are from UT Austin students claiming hes an academic fraud, ruins people lives, etc. it's very interesting because a majority of the posts have 200+ likes on them which ive never even seen before on rmp, but even more interesting than that is the fact that alot of them use the same phrases like 'ruins your life'. are the reviews botted? whats everyones opinion on him?

I want to start to get into automated repricers but want to try my luck with manual repricing first just so that I can get an understanding of fundamental concepts first. Anybody have any insights into non-obvious repricing techniques that are simple enough to be executed by hand? Thank you!

I think GT should have a poker club (no gambling!), and really want to try to start one. Trying to find a professor to supervise the club is naturally a bit tricky here, and made even trickier by the fact that I've only spent one sem at GT so I don't know as many professors as maybe a third year would. I definitely don't think any of the ECE professors I've taken courses with would be interested, and want to see if just messaging professors that might do research in related topics (quant, finance, stats) would be interested. Anyone have any insight on this? Thank you!

i feel like 'and they mine for our bodies' had the same production quality and better lyrical content of something like half blood except it also had aura, if half blood (deservingly) was able to do so well why wasnt gao?

First time applicant just curious, am I right in assuming that as long as you submit an abstract that's somewhat novel and non trivial you'll probably get in? Seems more like a cool showcase of community work than a competitive research conference

been listening to 2slimey hella and rediscovered afourteen's 2020-2022 catalog and realized he was 2slimey before 2slimey

going into my third year of EE with no internships so far but alot of research experience that i think should be applicable to employers. not sure if this is because im not missing something, i have a template from r/engineeringresumes i use and just apply thru application portals. i know that applying thru sites is very difficult right now because of the intense competition in all engineering disciplines, so im planning to present some research work at conferences this fall too and hope that makes me more visible to employers. anyways, i want to get more suggestions about ways to make myself employable and feel like visiting the career advising center makes sense, and was just curious what the consensus on their usefulness in general is?

I'm an undergrad doing research and want to aim to present some work at a conference sometime closer to winter. Obviously it's an uphill battle as an undergrad to get even an intrnship in QC, but was just curious as to what people's experiences were with meeting recruiters and having that convert to j*b offers in QC? Or networking in general

I had a course I took at my previous university recognized as ECE4502, but just today it got updated for ECE6771. 4502 helped me meet my circuit tech requirements, 6771 doesn't. It doesn't even technically meet the 3/4XXX level course requirement, cuz its a 6XXX course now. Do grad courses usually not count towards undergrad threads or do I just have to talk to someone about this? Anyone have any experience with this? Thank you!
