A pre-high school science program, Adventure In Science (AIS), has been running in the Gaithersburg, Maryland area for the past 33 years. It s President, Dr...

A Combinatorial Testing Strategy for Concurrent Programs

Author(s)
Yu Lei, Richard Carver, Raghu N. Kacker, David Kung
One approach to testing concurrent programs is called reachability testing, which derives test sequences automatically and on-the-fly, without constructing a...

A W-band polarization converter and isolator

Author(s)
Charles Dietlein, A. Luukanen, Zoya Popovic, Erich N. Grossman
This paper presents a 95-GHz printed low-loss linear-to-circular polarizer designed as a component of an active direct-detection millimeter-wave imaging system...

Design of SNS Josephson Arrays for High Voltage Applications

Author(s)
Paul Dresselhaus, Samuel Benz, Charles J. Burroughs, Norman F. Bergren, Yonuk Chong
The voltage from a single, microwave-biased Josephson junction is a small quantity; thus useful voltages are only generated through series arrays of many...

Observation of the 1S0-3P0 clock transition in 27Al+

Author(s)
Till P. Rosenband, P. O. Schmidt, David Hume, Wayne M. Itano, Tara M. Fortier, Jason Stalnaker, Scott A. Diddams, Jeroen Koelemeij, James C. Bergquist, David J. Wineland
We report for the first time, laser spectroscopy of the 1S 0 – 3P 0 clock transition in 27Al +. A single aluminum ion and a single beryllium ion are...
