Terahertz (THz) spectra of the crystalline VA class dipeptide nanotubes were calculated at both the harmonic and Vibrational Self-consistent Field (VSCF) level
Acoustic emission (AE) sources in a plate generate dispersive Lamb waves. In this research, pencil lead breaks (PLBs) were made on an edge of a 3.1 mm thick
Foreword. This is the calendar year 2008 edition of a report series summarizing the technology transfer activities and achievements of the Department of

A yellow solid material [PxHy] has been obtained in the reaction of phosphine (PH3) and nitric oxide (NO) at room temperature, and characterized by TGA-MS and
Multiconfiguration Dirac-Hartree-Fock electric quadrupole (E2) and magnetic dipole (M1) transition probabilities are reported for transitions between levels of
This paper discusses a fiducial approach for constructing uncertainty intervals for the distance between k normal means and the origin. When k=2 this distance
