Bias and the Limits of Pooling for Large Collections

Author(s)
C E. Buckley, Darrin L. Dimmick, Ian Soboroff, Ellen M. Voorhees
Modern retrieval test collections are built through a process called pooling in which only a sample of the entire document set is judged for each topic. The

Author(s)
Qian Dong, Chris D. Muzny, Andrei F. Kazakov, Vladimir Diky, Joe W. Magee, Jason A. Widegren, Robert D. Chirico, Kenneth N. Marsh, Michael D. Frenkel
The development, scope, and functionality of the web-based ionic liquids database, ILThermo, are described. The database is available free to the public, and

A Virtual Rapid Chloride Permeability Test

Author(s)
Dale P. Bentz
The rapid chloride permeability test (RCPT), as it is commonly called, has been in existence for over 20 years and was standardized by ASTM over 15 years ago

Scattering and Interference in Epitaxial Graphene

Author(s)
Gregory M. Rutter, Jason Crain, T Li, P First, Joseph A. Stroscio
A single sheet of carbon, graphene, exhibits unexpected electronic properties that arise from quantum state symmetries, which restrict the scattering of its

Synthetic Incoherence for Electron Microscopy

Author(s)
Zachary H. Levine, Robyn M. Dunstan
Tomographic studies of submicrometer samples in materials science using electron microscopy have been inhibited by diffraction effects. In the present work, we

Ultraviolet Characterization of Integrating Spheres

Author(s)
Ping-Shine Shaw, Zhigang Li, Uwe Arp, Keith R. Lykke
We have studied the performance of integrating spheres in the ultraviolet (UV) with wavelengths as short as 200 nm. Two techniques were used for this study
