R-22 Replacement Status (in Russian)

Author(s)
J M. Calm, Piotr A. Domanski
Since its initial recognition in 1928 and commercialization in 1936, R-22 has been applied in systems ranging from the smallest window air conditioners to the

Reflective attenuator for high energy laser measurements

Author(s)
John H. Lehman, David J. Livigni, Xiaoyu X. Li, Christopher L. Cromer, Marla L. Dowell
A high-energy laser attenuator in the range of 250 mJ (20 nsec pulse width, 10 Hz repetition rate, 1064 nm wavelength) is described. The optical elements which

Entangled states of trapped atomic ions

Author(s)
Rainer Blatt, David J. Wineland
This article reviews recent experiments on entanglement and quantum information processing that use trapped ions.  It is intended to give a brief summary of the

Vijay Tirumala, Sanghun Lee, Taiki Tominaga, Eric K. Lin, Jian P. Gong, Paul D. Butler, Wen-Li Wu
A molecular mechanism is proposed for the toughness enhancement observed in double network (DN) hydrogels prepared from poly (2 acrylamido, 2-methyl, 1

Surface Effects on the Elastic Modulus of Te Nanowires

Author(s)
Gheorghe Stan, Sergiy Krylyuk, Albert Davydov, Mark D. Vaudin, Leonid A. Bendersky, Robert F. Cook
Nondestructive elastic property measurements have been performed on Te nanowires with diameters in the range 20 150 nm. By using contact resonance atomic force

Multisine Signals for Wireless System Test and Design

Author(s)
Catherine A. Remley, Nuno Carvalho, Dominique Schreurs, Kevin Gard
We discuss the use of multisine test signals for system verification and model development in the laboratory. We highlight the utility of multisine excitation

Improving Correlations with Inelastic Loss

Author(s)
James V. Porto
Correlations are one of the central features of modern condensed matter physics. They arise in systems where the behavior of any given particle in a system
