TL;DR: The goal of this work is to provide an understanding of the technical choices made, the constraints that were imposed, and ultimately the validated performance of the flight model as it leaves Earth, and it will serve as the foundation for Mars operations and future processing of the data.

TL;DR: The SuperCam body unit (BU) of the Mars 2020 rover as mentioned in this paper was designed to receive light from the mast unit via a 5.8 m opti-cal fiber and the light is split into three wavelength bands by a demultiplexer, and routed via fiber bundles to three optical spectrometers, two of which (UV and violet; 245-340 and 385-465 nm) are crossed Czerny-Turner reflection spectrometer, nearly identical to their counterparts on ChemCam.

TL;DR: The Scanning Habitable Environments with Raman and Luminescence for Organics and Chemicals (SHERLOC) is a robotic arm-mounted instrument on NASA's Perseverance rover as mentioned in this paper.

TL;DR: In this article, a user enrolls for multi-factor authentication that uses quantum communication with a trusted authority, and the trusted authority transmits device factor information associated with a user device (such as a hash function) and user factor information with the user (such an encrypted version of a user password).

TL;DR: Results from a multi-node experimental test-bed utilizing integrated photonics quantum communications components include: quantum identification; verifiable quantum secret sharing; multi-party authenticated key establishment, including group keying; and single-fiber quantum-secured communications that can be applied as a security retrofit/upgrade to existing optical fiber installations.
