The effect of the fire size on radiative heat loss fraction and combustion efficiency was examined by an analysis of scale for pool flames with varying diameter...
Invariant tori of solutions for nonlinearly coupled oscillators are generalizations of limit cycles in the phase plane. They are surfaces of aperiodic solutions...
This report examines the effects of uncertainties in temperature and coefficient of thermal expansion on the expanded uncertainty of length dimensional...

Self-assembly of alkanethiol monolayers on gold and silver substrates is a fast, easy, and convenient method for preparing stable organic films with well...
A simple technique for post-polishing single-point, diamond-turned optics is described. Synthetic fabric-faced laps are used. Surface finish converges to a...
SEMPA observations of magnetic exchange coupling in the Fe/Ag/Fe, Fe/Au/Fe, and Fe/Cr/Fe systems reveal an intensity variation in the emitted secondary electron...

A review is given that describes the complications due to elastic and inelastic electron scattering in quantitative surface analyses by Auger-electron...
Real space views of the homoepitaxial growth of Fe on Fe(001) whiskers is reported, observed by scanning tunneling microscopy (STM), during the initial stages...

Scanning electron microscopy with polarization-analysis (SEMPA) measurements of the dependence of the oscillations of the exchange coupling in Fe/Cr/Fe(100)...
An analysis of the island size and separation distributions of Fe islands, observed in the initial stages of growth in the homoepitaxy of Fe on Fe(001) whiskers...
We have calculated the electron inelastic mean free paths (IMFPs) in the range 50-2000 eV for 14 different organic compounds using the Penn algorithm. We report...

Scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) and reflection high-energy electron diffraction (RHEED) were used to study the epitaxial growth of Cr on Fe(001) whiskers as...
Scanning electron microscopy with polarization analysis was used to investigate the interlayer exchange coupling in Fe/Au/Fe(100) sandwich structures. The films...
The Boltzmann equation is solved for a system consisting of a ferromagnetic-normal-metallic multilayer. The in-plane magnetoresistance of Fe/Cr and Fe/Cu...
