Substrate hot-electron and substrate hot-hole injection experiments are used to provide insight into defect generation and breakdown of ultra-thin silicon
The Text REtrieval Conference (TREC) question answering track is an effort to bring the benefits of large-scale evaluation to bear on a question answering (QA)
Calcium phosphate cement (CPC) sets to form microporous solid hydroxyapatite with excellent osteoconductivity, but its brittleness and low strength prohibit use
Ceramic-based crowns, particularly molar crowns, can fail prematurely from accumulation of fracture and other damage in continual occlusal contact. Damage modes

Thermochemical and phase diagram data for the Ga-N system were assessed by employing the CALPHAD method. A consistent model representation of available
For several decades deJong [1926] first identified the mineral found in skeletal tissues as similar in structure to hydroxyapatite, Ca 5(PO 4) 3OH(OHAp), this

Plastic zone evolution in A1-2 wt% Si metal films on silicon and sapphire substrates was studied using nanoindentation and atomic force microscopy (AFM). AFM
A through review of the literature on fatigue crack initiation indicates that for optimum resistance to fatigue crack initiation, a surface coating needs more
A recent paper by Karabacak et al., which discussed the scattering from rough surfaces in directions out of the plane of incidence, exhibited an error in the
The properties of a rotating Bose-Einstein condensate confined in a prolate cylindrically symmetric trap are explored both analytically and numerically. As the
The next two issues of the International Journal of Chemical Kinetics are dedicated to Prof. Simon H. Bauer on the occasion of his 90th birthday. These issues
1,2-Pentadiene has been decomposed in single pulse shock tube experiments. There appear to be a large number of parallel decomposition and isomerization

As concrete cures in the field, there is a constant competition for the mixing water between evaporation and hydration processes. Understanding the mechanisms
This paper presents the distribution of the main welding parameters (welding voltage and welding current) for semiautomatic arc welding with the metal active
The thermodynamics of the lipase-catalyzed esterification of glycerol with n-octanoic acid have been investigated with acetonitrile, benzene, and toluene as
The enzyme chorismate lyase from E. coli crystallizes in three well characterized polymorphs in identical conditions. Wild-type enzyme tends to aggregate, even
Researchers at NIST in collaboration with the PATH-D program have been working to improve the durability of residential home construction. These efforts have
Hydroxyapatite (HAP) belongs to a family of structurally and chemically related, sparingly soluble calcium phosphate (CP) salts [1], and is the structural
