               <jats:p>Die Eigenschaftsregelung mit einer online-Messung der Bauteileigenschaften ist ein in der Umformtechnik viel diskutiertes, aber kaum validiertes Konzept, um den Automatisierungsgrad bei der Bauteilfertigung weiter zu erhöhen. Dieser Artikel soll helfen, die Lücke beispielhaft für den Fertigungsprozess des Drückwalzens metastabiler Austenite zu schließen. Der metastabile austenitische Edelstahl ändert hierbei während der Verformung seinen α′-Martensitgehalt und damit verbunden die magnetischen Eigenschaften. Deshalb soll über die Regelung das definierte Einstellen des α′-Martensitgehaltes möglich werden. Im Rahmen des vorliegenden Artikels wird gezeigt, wie mittels des modellbasierten Entwurfs die Eigenschaftsregelung ausgelegt und parametriert werden kann. Zudem beinhaltet der Artikel experimentelle Validierungsergebnisse der zuvor entworfenen Eigenschaftsregelung.</jats:p>}},

  abstract     = {{Diese Dissertation befasst sich mit der Entwicklung eines induktiv-basierten Lokalisierungsverfahrens mittels planarer Spulen, das auf magnetischer Kopplung beruht. Grundlage ist die elektromagnetische Induktion, bei der sich die entstehende Spannung proportional zur Gegeninduktivität verhält. Das Verfahren arbeitet im physikalischen Nahfeld und im Frequenzbereich von einigen kHz bis MHz, um eine effiziente Kopplung ohne Ausbreitung elektromagnetischer Wellen zu gewährleisten. Im Vergleich zu etablierten Verfahren wie GPS oder Ultraschall zeigt die induktive Ortung Vorteile bei kurzer Reichweite, insbesondere durch hohe Genauigkeit im Zentimeterbereich und geringe Materialabhängigkeit. Zudem lässt sie sich in bestehende Technologien wie bei der drahtlosen Energieübertragung integrieren und durch Sensorfusion mit anderen Verfahren kombinieren. Zur Modellierung und Optimierung werden physikalische Eigenschaften von planaren Spulen und EM-Feldern analysiert und elektrische Ersatzschaltbilder eingesetzt. Die geometriebasierte Berechnung der Gegeninduktivität ermöglicht die Entwicklung und Bewertung geeigneter Ortungsalgorithmen. Stochastische Filterverfahren verbessern zusätzlich die Robustheit gegenüber Umgebungseinflüssen. Abschließend wird eine modulare Simulationsplattform vorgestellt, die als Grundlage für die Generierung von Trainingsdaten sowie zur Weiterentwicklung von Mess-, Ortungs- und Filtermethoden dient.}},

  abstract     = {{<jats:p>In this paper, we theoretically study the spectral and temporal properties of pulsed spontaneous parametric down-conversion (SPDC) generated in lossy waveguides. Our theoretical approach is based on the formalism of Gaussian states and the Langevin equation, which is elaborated for weak parametric down-conversion and photon-number-unresolved click detection. Using the example of frequency-degenerate type-II SPDC generated under the pump-idler group-velocity-matching condition, we show how the joint-spectral intensity, mode structure, normalized second-order correlation function, and Hong-Ou-Mandel interference pattern depend on internal losses of the SPDC process. We found that the joint-spectral intensity is almost insensitive to internal losses, while the second-order correlation function shows a strong dependence on them, being different for the signal and idler beams in the presence of internal losses. Based on the sensitivity of the normalized second-order correlation function, we show how its measurement can be used to experimentally determine internal losses.</jats:p>}},

               <jats:p>Muonic hydrogen is an exotic atom where a muon instead of an electron is bound to a proton. The comparably high mass of the muon (≈ 207 · <jats:italic>m<jats:sub>e</jats:sub>
                  </jats:italic>) has two important effects, (i) the reduced mass of the system becomes more important, and (ii) the muon is localized much closer to the nucleus. Thus, muonic hydrogen is not only excellently suitable for evaluating highly precise quantum electrodynamic (QED) calculations, but may also be used for assessing new approaches including finite nuclear size (FNS) effects to evaluate the proton structure and improve calculation schemes for the hyperfine splittings of many-particle systems, as e.g. to be implemented in density functional theory (DFT) software packages. Here, starting from Dirac’s equation we calculate the relativistic hyperfine splitting of the ground state and several excited states of muonic hydrogen analytically for different charge and magnetization models. The FNS related hyperfine shifts are compared with the differences between QED calculations and experimental measurements. This comparison also allows to unravel the role of the reduced mass, which is on one hand crucial in case of muonic atoms, but on the other hand is by no means well defined in relativistic quantum mechanics.</jats:p>}},

  abstract     = {{Non-Hermitian systems hosting exceptional points (EPs) exhibit enhanced sensitivity and unconventional mode dynamics. Going beyond isolated EPs, here we report on the existence of exceptional rings (ERs) in planar optical resonators with specific form of circular dichroism and TE-TM splitting. Such exceptional rings possess intriguing topologies as discussed earlier for condensed matter systems, but they remain virtually unexplored in presence of nonlinearity, for which our photonic platform is ideal. We find that when Kerr-type nonlinearity (or saturable gain) is introduced, the linear ER splits into two concentric ERs, with the larger-radius ring being a ring of third-order EPs. Transitioning from linear to nonlinear regime, we present a rigorous analysis of spectral topology and report enhanced and adjustable perturbation response in the nonlinear regime. Whereas certain features are specific to our system, the results on non-Hermitian spectral topology and nonlinearity-enhanced perturbation response are generic and equally relevant to a broad class of other nonlinear non-Hermitian systems, providing a universal framework for engineering ERs and EPs in nonlinear non-Hermitian systems.}},

The goal of providing or seeking explanations is to achieve (better) ‘understanding’ on the part of the explainee. However, what it means to ‘understand’ is still not clearly defined, and the concept itself is rarely the subject of scientific investigation. This conceptual article aims to present a model of forms of understanding for XAI-explanations and beyond. From an interdisciplinary perspective bringing together computer science, linguistics, sociology, philosophy and psychology, a definition of understanding and its forms, assessment, and dynamics during the process of giving everyday explanations are explored. Two types of understanding are considered as possible outcomes of explanations, namely enabledness, ‘knowing how’ to do or decide something, and comprehension, ‘knowing that’ – both in different degrees (from shallow to deep). Explanations regularly start with shallow understanding in a specific domain and can lead to deep comprehension and enabledness of the explanandum, which we see as a prerequisite for human users to gain agency. In this process, the increase of comprehension and enabledness are highly interdependent. Against the background of this systematization, special challenges of understanding in XAI are discussed.}},

We further show how the transitions between classes are rendered possible by photon addition, photon subtraction, and photon-projection nonlinearities. We explicitly put forward a design for a multilayer interferometer in which the states for different classes can be generated with state-of-the-art experimental techniques. Limitations of the proposed designs are analyzed using the introduced classification, providing a benchmark for the robustness of certain states and classes.</jats:p>}},

Although in the case of qubit systems, Bell measurements can be implemented using only linear optical components, the same result is no longer true for qudits, where at least the use of ancillary photons is required. In order to circumvent this limitation, one possibility is to introduce nonlinear effects. In this work, we adopt the latter approach and propose a scalable Bell measurement scheme for high-dimensional states, exploiting multiple squeezer devices applied to a linear optical circuit for discriminating the different Bell states. Our approach does not require ancillary photons, is not limited by the dimension of the quantum states, and is experimentally scalable, thus paving the way toward the realization of an effective high-dimensional Bell measurement.</jats:p>}},

Harnessing the spectral correlations also permits refinement of the emission and unraveling of previously hidden strong correlations in a plethora of quantum-optical systems under continuous-wave excitation. In this work, we investigate such correlations for time-dependent excitation and develop a methodology to compute efficiently time-integrated correlations, which are at the heart of the photon-counting theory, and subsequently apply it to analyze the photon emission of pulsed systems. By combining this formalism with the —which facilitates frequency-resolved correlations—we demonstrate how spectral filtering enhances single-photon purity and suppresses multiphoton noise in time-bin-encoded quantum states. Specifically, filtering the central spectral peak of a dynamically driven two-level system boosts temporal coherence and improves the fidelity of time-bin entanglement preparation, even under conditions favoring multiphoton emission. These results establish spectral filtering as a critical tool for tailoring photon statistics in pulsed quantum light sources.</jats:p>}},
