The Institute for Reference Materials and Measurements (IRMM) of the Joint Research Centre (JRC), a Directorate-General of the European Commission, operates the

Internal Curing Improves Concrete Performance throughout its Life

Author(s)
Ryan Henkensiefken, Javier Castro, Haejin Kim, Dale P. Bentz, Jason Weiss
Internal curing (IC) provides a set of water reservoirs within the concrete to prevent self-desiccation and promote hydration. While early research in this area

Eigenpath Traversal by Phase Randomization

Author(s)
S. Boixo, Emanuel Knill, Rolando Somma
A computation in adiabatic quantum computing is achieved by traversing a path of nondegenerate eigenstates of a continuous family of Hamiltonians. We introduce

Generation and Mixing of Subfemtoliter Aqueous Droplets on Demand

Author(s)
Kristian Helmerson, Jianyong N. Tang, Ana Jofre, Rani Kishore, Joseph E. Reiner, Mark E. Greene, Geoffrey M. Lowman, John Denker, Christina N. Willis, Lori Goldner
We describe a novel method of generating monodisperse sub-femtoliter aqueous droplets on demand by means of piezoelectric injection. Droplets with volumes down

Spin Transfer Torques by Point-Contact Spin injection

Author(s)
Tingyong Chen, Yi Ji, S X. Huang, C L. Chien, Mark D. Stiles
Spin-transfer torques (STT) provide a new mechanism to alter the magnetic configuration in magnetic heterostructures, a feat previously only achieved by an

An Other-Race Effect for Face Recognition Algorithms

Author(s)
P J. Phillips, Alice J. O'Toole, Fang Jiang, Abhijit Narvekar, Julianne Ayadd
Psychological research indicates that humans recognize faces of their own race more accurately than faces of other races. This "other-race effect" occurs for
