Modulus and Chemical Mapping of Multi-layer Coatings

Author(s)
Aaron M. Forster, Chris A. Michaels, Li Piin Sung, Justin Lucas
Thermoplastic olefins (TPO) are polymeric materials utilized for interior and exterior automotive parts. These materials are often painted to enhance appearance...

Centrifugal Length Separation of Carbon Nanotubes

Author(s)
Jeffrey A. Fagan, Matthew Becker, Jae H. Chun, Barry J. Bauer, Jeffrey R. Simpson, Angela R. Hight Walker, Erik K. Hobbie
Separation of single wall carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) by length via centrifugation in a high density medium, and the characterization of both the separated...

Hollow spherical supramolecular dendrimers

Author(s)
Virgil Percec, Mihai Peterca, Andres E. Dulcey, Mohammad Imam, Steven Hudson, Sami Nummelin, Peter Adelman, Paul A. Heiney
The synthesis of a library containing 12 conical dendrons that self-assemble into hollow spherical supramolecular dendrimers is reported. The design principles...

Recent atomic clock comparisions at NIST

Author(s)
Luca Lorini, Neil Ashby, Anders Brusch, Scott Diddams, Robert E. Drullinger, Eric Eason, Tara Fortier, Pat Hastings, Thomas P. Heavner, David Hume, Wayne M. Itano, Steven R. Jefferts, Nathan R. Newbury, Tom Parker, Till P. Rosenband, Jason Stalnaker, William C. Swann, David J. Wineland, James C. Bergquist
The record of atomic clock frequency comparisons at NIST over the past half-decade provides one of the tightest constraints of any present-day, temporal...

Superfludity and phase transitions in a resonant Bose gas

Author(s)
Leo Radzihovsky, Peter B. Weichman, Jae Park
The atomic Bose gas is studied across a Feshbach resonance, mapping out its phase diagram, and computing its thermodynamics and excitation spectra. It is shown...

Surface-Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy via Gold Nanostars

Author(s)
Emren Nalbant-Esenturk, Angela R. Hight Walker
Anisotropic metallic nanoparticles have unique optical properties, which lend them to applications such as Surface Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy (SERS). Branched...

Quantum Simulations of Classical Annealing Processes

Author(s)
Rolando Somma, S. Boixo, Howard Barnum, Emanuel Knill
We describe a quantum algorithm that solves combinatorial optimization problems by quantum simulation of a classical simulated annealing process. Our algorithm...

in-Adamantane, a Small Inside-Out Molecule

Author(s)
Karl K. Irikura
The hydrocarbon in-adamantane, an adamantane isomer in which one methine hydrogen atom is inside the cage, is predicted by ab initio calculations to be isolable...

Ultra-high resolution alpha particle spectroscopy using calorimetry

Author(s)
Robert D. Horansky, Joel N. Ullom, James A. Beall, Gene C. Hilton, Kent D. Irwin, Don Dry, Beth Hastings, Stephen Lamont, Clifford R. Rudy, Michael W. Rabin
Calorimetry has been used since the late 1700?s to measure the heat output of physical processes ranging from chemical reactions to the respiration of organisms...
