A simplified optical lattice clock

Author(s)
N Poli, M.G. Tarallo, M. Schioppo, A. Alberti, Giorgio Ferrari, V. Ivanov, Christopher W. Oates, G.M. Tino
While existing optical lattice clocks demonstrate a high level of performance, they remain complex experimental devices. In order to address a wider range of...

Thermopower of Co-doped FeSe0.82

Author(s)
Evan L. Thomas, Winnie K. Wong-Ng, Daniel P. Phelan
The effect of cobalt doping (0.05 ≤ x ≤ 0.50) on the thermopower of the newly discovered superconductor FeSe0.82 is investigated through electrical and thermal...

Balance Pan Damping Using Rings Of Tuned Sloshing Liquids

Author(s)
Edwin R. Williams, Darine El Haddad, V Generalova, Pierre Gournay, C. Hauch, F. Villar, Richard L. Steiner, Ruimin Liu
This paper describes a new method to damp out balance pan oscillations even when the balance is operated in vacuum. The key is to tune the wavelength of the...

Analysis of ISCD-NIST Survey for Bone Health

Author(s)
Andrew M. Dienstfrey, Tammy L. Oreskovic, Herbert S. Bennett, Lawrence T. Hudson
In 2007, the National Institute of Standards and Technology and the International Society for Clinical Densitometry designed a survey to prioritize seven...

Improvements in the NIST Johnson Noise Thermometry System

Author(s)
Samuel P. Benz, Jifeng Qu, Horst Rogalla, D. R. White, Paul D. Dresselhaus, Weston L. Tew, Sae Woo Nam
We have developed a Johnson noise thermometry (JNT) system that is calibrated by precision waveforms synthesized with a quantized voltage noise source (QVNS)...

Progress toward a 1 V Pulse-Driven AC Josephson Voltage Standard

Author(s)
Samuel P. Benz, Paul D. Dresselhaus, Alain Rufenacht, Norman F. Bergren, Joseph R. Kinard Jr., Regis Landim
We present a new record rms output voltage of 275 mV, which is a 25 % improvement over the maximum achieved with previous ac Josephson voltage standard (ACJVS)...

First Order Sideband Pulling in Atomic Frequency Standards

Author(s)
Jon H. Shirley, Thomas P. Heavner, Steven R. Jefferts
Many high performance atomic frequency standards, including cesium fountains and most optical standards, operate with pulsed measurements, that is, an atomic...

AC Power Standard Using a Programmable Josephson Voltage Standard

Author(s)
Bryan C. Waltrip, Bo Gong, Thomas L. Nelson, Yicheng Wang, Charles J. Burroughs, Alain Rufenacht, Samuel Benz, Paul Dresselhaus
This paper describes the implementation of a new quantum-based system for the generation of 120 V rms, 5 A rms, sinusoidal, active and reactive power over the...
