Unwanted Combustion Enhancement by C6F12O Fire Suppressant

Author(s)
Gregory T. Linteris, Valeri I. Babushok, Peter B. Sunderland, Fumiaki Takahashi, Viswanath R. Katta, Oliver Meier
Several agents are under consideration to replace CF3Br for use in suppressing fires in aircraft cargo bays. In a Federal Aviation Administration (FAA)

Estimating Heterogeneity Variance in Meta-Analysis

Author(s)
Andrew L. Rukhin
Several new estimators of the between-study variability in a heterogeneous random effects meta-analysis model are derived. One of them can be interpreted as the

Coupled-cavity ring-down spectroscopy technique

Author(s)
Jeremie B. Courtois, Joseph T. Hodges
We present a technique called coupled-cavity ring-down spectroscopy (CC-RDS) for controlling the finesse of an optical resonator. Applications include extending

Dual-channel, single-photon upconversion detector at 1.3 μm

Author(s)
Jason S. Pelc, Paulina Kuo, Oliver T. Slattery, Lijun Ma, Xiao Tang, Martin M. Fejer
We demonstrate efficient, single-photon upconversion detection of two wavelengths in the 1300-nm band. The upconversion detector is based on a phase-modulated

Data in the 21st Century

Author(s)
Ursula R. Kattner
Data have always been important in the field of materials science and engineering. Important attributes and properties for such databases to fulfill data

Polymer-Fullerene Mixing in Organic Solar Cells

Hyun Wook Ro, Bulent Akgun, Regis J. Kline, Chad R. Snyder, Sushil K. Satija, Christopher L. Soles, Dean M. DeLongchamp, Michael F. Toney, Alexander L. Ayzner, Brendan T. O'Connor, Matthew Hammond
The mixing behavior of the hole and electron transporting materials in bulk heterojunction (BHJ) organic photovoltaic (OPV) blends plays a key role in

Combustion Properties of Halogenated Fire Suppressants

Author(s)
Gregory T. Linteris, Valeri I. Babushok, Oliver Meier
Previous experimental studies have shown that some halogenated fire suppressant agents added to hydrocarbon-air systems can enhance the combustion. For example

Microscopic Insights into Ion Gel Dynamics using Neutron Spectroscopy

Author(s)
Maiko Kofu, Takenori Someya, Soichi Tatsumi, Kazuhide Ueno, Takeshi Ueki, Masayoshi Watanabe, Takuro Matsunaga, Mitsuhiro Shibayama, Victoria Garcia Sakai, Madhu Sudan Tyagi, Osamu Yamamuro
We have investigated the microscopic dynamics of ion gels consisting of a PMMA [poly(methyl methacrylate)] network and EMITSFI [1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium bis
