Spin wave localization in tangentially magnetized films

Author(s)
Elena V. Tartakovskaya, Martha Pardavi-Horvath, Robert McMichael
We present an analytical description of localized spin wave modes that form in a parabolic field minimum in a thin ferromagnetic film. Mode profiles

Demystifiying the Internet of Things

Author(s)
Jeffrey M. Voas
This short column introduces the need for a foundational science to the Internet of Things (IoT). It introduces the notion of primitives and elements, and their

Vibration-induced field fluctuations in a superconducting magnet

Author(s)
Joseph W. Britton, John J. Bollinger, Justin G. Bohnet, Brian C. Sawyer, Hermann Uys, Michael Biercuk
Superconducting magnets enable precise control of nuclear and electron spins, and are used in experiments that explore biological and condensed matter systems

Metamorphic Testing for Cybersecurity

Author(s)
Tsong Yueh Chen, Fei-Ching Kuo, Wenjuan Ma, Willy Susilo, Dave Towey, Jeff Voas, Zhi Q. Zhou
Testing is a major approach for the detection of software defects, including security vulnerabilities. This article introduces metamorphic testing (MT), a

Josephson-Based Full Digital Bridge for High-Accuracy Impedance Comparisons

Author(s)
Frederic Overney, Nathan Flowers-Jacobs, Blaise Jeanneret, Alain Rufenacht, Anna Fox, Jason Underwood, Andrew D. Koffman, Samuel P. Benz
This paper describes a Josephson-based full digital impedance bridge capable of comparing any two impedances, regardless of type (R-C, R-L, or L-C), over a

30 Years of Newest Vertex Bisection

Author(s)
William F. Mitchell
One aspect of adaptive mesh refinement in the finite element method for solving partial differential equations is the method by which elements are refined. In

A precise instrument to determine the Planck constant, and the future kilogram

Author(s)
Darine El Haddad, Frank C. Seifert, Leon S. Chao, David B. Newell, Jon R. Pratt, Carl J. Williams, Stephan Schlamminger, Shisong Li
A precise instrument, called a watt balance, compares mechanical power measured in terms of the meter, the second and the kilogram to electrical power measured

Atomic structural evolution during the reduction of α-Fe2O3 nanowires

Author(s)
Wenhui Zhu, Jonathan P. Winterstein, Itai Maimon, Qiyue Yin, Lu Yuan, Aleksey N. Kolmogorov, Renu Sharma, Guangwen Zhou
The atomic-scale reduction mechanism of α-Fe2O3 nanowires by H2 was followed using transmission electron microscopy to reveal the evolution of atomic structures
