Five designs for a miniaturized dynamic light scattering (DLS) instrument with microfluidic flow and fiber optic probes directly embedded into the sample are...
A recent paper by Ignacio Lira in Metrologia 43 (2006) S231-S234 addresses a well-known problem in combining information from interlaboratory evaluations. Lira...
We report on a fully nonequilibrium theory of scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) through resonances induced by impurity atoms adsorbed on metal surfaces. The...

We present an implementation of the steady state Keldysh approach in a Green function multiple scattering scheme to calculate the non-equilibrium spin density...
We provide a simple explanation, based on an effective field, for the precession damping rate due to the spin-orbit interaction. Previous effective field...
The Landau-Lifshitz equation reliably describes magnetization dynamics using a phenomenological treatment of damping. This paper presents first-principles...

Recent theory and measurements of the velocity of current-driven domain walls in magnetic nanowires have re-opened the unresolved question of whether Landau...
This paper surveys recent research on self-organizing techniques applied to design and control large wireless ad hoc and sensor networks. The survey divides...
A simple geometric argument is presented to account for the value of the measured critical exponent describing the development of anisotropy at the stability...

he need to characterize line edge and line width roughness in patterns with sub-50 nm critical dimension challenges existing platforms based on electron...
The rheological properties of non-Brownian carbon nanotube suspensions are measured over a range of nanotube volume fractions spanning the transition from semi...

DNA-wrapped single wall carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) with broad length distributions are shown to reduce the viability of IMR90 primary human lung fibroblast cells...
The random-effects model is a useful approach for meta-analysis of clinical studies. It explicitly accounts for the heterogeneity of studies through a...
A detailed first principles analysis of the transport properties of different magnetic electrode materials for MgO tunnel junctions is performed to elucidate...

The stress-strain behavior of rat pulmonary arteries was studied using a bubble inflation technique. To obtain mechanical properties, an analytical method to...
In a simulation experiment, we study the feasibility of coded source neutron transmission tomography for imaging water density in fuel cells at the NIST neutron...
This paper presents an approach for making inference on the mean and variance of a Gaussian distribution in the presence of resolution errors. The approach is...
