Deformation of Gauge Blocks

Author(s)
Theodore D. Doiron, Eric S. Stanfield, Dennis S. Everett
When a force is exerted on any material, the material deforms. Most of the time the effect is small and is neglected. In the measurement of gauge blocks, where

Perillo-Issac, R. R. Ross, T. Saab, B. Sadoulet, J. Sander, R. W. Schnee, T. Shutt, Amy Smith, A. H. Sonnenschein, A. L. Spadafora, G. Wang
The Cryogenic Dark Matter Search (CDMS) uses Ge and Si detectors to search for Weakly Interacting Massive Particles (WIMPs) via their elastic-scattering

Comparison of AlGaAs oxidation in MBE and MOCVD grown samples

Author(s)
Y Chen, Alexana Roshko, Kristine A. Bertness, Dennis W. Readey, Marc A. Mansfield, M. Tan, A. Tandon
Simultaneous wet thermal oxidation of MBE and MOCVD grown Al xGa 1-xAs layers showed that the epitaxial growth method does not influence the oxidation rate

TES Detector Noise Limited Readout Using SQUID Multiplexers

Author(s)
Johannes G. Staguhn, C. A. Allen, D. J. Benford, James A. Chervenak, M. M. Freund, S. A. Khan, A. S. Kutyrev, S. H. Mosely, Rick A. Shafer, Steven Deiker, Erich N. Grossman, Gene C. Hilton, Kent D. Irwin, John M. Martinis, Sae Woo Nam, David A. Rudman, David A. Wollman
The availability of superconducting Transition Edge Sensors (TES) with large numbers of individual detector pixels requires multiplexers for efficient readout

The Precision Alignment of a Kolsky Bar Apparatus

Author(s)
Timothy J. Burns, Brian S. Dutterer, Michael Kennedy, Matthew A. Davies, Richard L. Rhorer
The modeling of machining processes is often limited by the availability of material data appropriate for the high strain rates and rapid heating associated

A Phase-Field Model of Convection with Solidification

Author(s)
D M. Anderson, Geoffrey B. McFadden, A A. Wheeler
A phase-field model for the solidification of a pure material that incorporates convection has recently been developed. This model is a two-fluid model in which

Broadband Noise on Supercontinuum Generated in Microstructure Fiber

Author(s)
Kristan L. Corwin, Nathan R. Newbury, Sarah L. Gilbert, K Weber, Scott Diddams, Leo W. Hollberg, R Windeler
The broad supercontinuum generated by pumping highly nonlinear microstructure fiber with a femtosecond laser exhibits broadband amplitude noise. We

Measurement of Heat Conduction through Metal Spheres

Author(s)
Michael A. Lewis, Ray Radebaugh
This paper describes the results of the measurements of heat conduction through a bed of packed metal spheres. Spheres were packed in a fiberglass-epoxy
