Inertance Tube Optimization for Pulse Tube Refrigerators

Author(s)
Ray Radebaugh, Michael A. Lewis, Ercang Lou, John M. Pfotenhauer, G. F. Nellis, L. F. Schunk
The efficiency of regenerative refrigerators is generally maximized when the pressure and flow are in phase near the midpoint of the regenerator. Such a phase

Quantum depletion of a soliton condensate

Author(s)
Lu Deng, Guoxiang Huang
We present rigorous results on the diagonalization of Bogoliubov Hamiltonian for a soliton condensate. Using the complete and orthonormalized set of

Multiparameter Equations of State for Selected Siloxanes

Author(s)
P. Colonna, R. Nannan, A. Guardone, Eric Lemmon
The development of technical equations of state using the 12-parameter Span-Wagner functional form for four siloxanes is presented in two parts. The fluids

Structure and Magnetocaloric Properties of the Fe-Doped HoTiGe Alloy

Author(s)
Virgil Provenzano, B Baumgold, Robert D. Shull, Alexander J. Shapiro, Keiichi Koyama, Kazuo Watanabe, N K. Singh, K G. Suresh, A K. Nigam, S K. Malik
The structure and magnetocaloric properties of the Fe-doped HoTiGe compound were investigated by means of scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive

Hot-wire chemical vapor synthesis for a variety of nano-materials with novel aplications

Author(s)
Anne Dillon, A. H. Mahan, Rohit Deshpande, J. L. Alleman, Jeffrey Blackburn, P. A. Parillia, M. J. Heben, Chaiwat Engtrakul, K.E.H. Gilbert, Kevin M. Jones, Bobby To, S Lee, John H. Lehman
Hot-wire chemical vapor deposition (HWCVD) has been demonstrated as a simple economically scalable technique for the synthesis of a variety of nano-materials in

Controlling Polar Molecules in Optical Lattices

Author(s)
Svetlana A. Kotochigova, Eite Tiesinga
We determine conditions for effective quantum control over internal and external degrees of freedom of polar alkali-metal molecules in optical lattices. We show

Electronic Effects in Length Distribution of Atom Chains

Author(s)
Jason Crain, Mark D. Stiles, Joseph A. Stroscio, Daniel T. Pierce
Gold deposited on Si(553) leads to self assembly of atomic chains, which are broken into finite segments by atomic defects. Scanning tunneling microscopy is

Optimization of Transition-Edge Calorimeter Performance

Author(s)
Joel N. Ullom, James A. Beall, William B. Doriese, William Duncan, S. L. Ferreira, Gene C. Hilton, Kent D. Irwin, Galen C. O'Neil, Carl D. Reintsema, Leila R. Vale, Barry L. Zink
Calorimeters that exploit the superconducting-to-normal transition are used to detect individual photons from near-infrared to γ-ray wavelengths. Across this
