Abstract This paper proposes a scheme to generate a new $\chi$-type four-atom entangled state for the first time by using linear optics elements, four one-sided cavities (one three-level atom) and a conventional photon detector. The linear optical elements and conventional photon detector are simple and accessible in experiments, which makes the scheme more feasible with current technology. In addition, the state $|\chi^{00}\rangle_{3214}$ with probability 1 can be generated as long as there is no photon loss.

Altmetric calculates a score based on the online attention an article receives. Each coloured thread in the circle represents a different type of online attention. The number in the centre is the Altmetric score. Social media and mainstream news media are the main sources that calculate the score. Reference managers such as Mendeley are also tracked but do not contribute to the score. Older articles often score higher because they have had more time to get noticed. To account for this, Altmetric has included the context data for other articles of a similar age.
