We report on a fully nonequilibrium theory of the scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) through resonances induced by impurity atoms adsorbed on metal surfaces
We report measurements and a model of gas flow through a helical duct of rectangular cross section. The measurements on helium, nitrogen, argon, and sulfur
The pressures of competing in the global marketplace are forcing building control companies, equipment and systems manufacturers, energy providers, utiliites
Copying multiple regions of a DNA molecule is routinely performed today using the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) in a process commonly referred to as multiplex
Machine tools generate significant vibration levels during operation due to the dynamic nature of the machine and cutting process. With appropriate vibration

A self-hardening calcium phosphate cement (CPC), consisting of equimolar amounts of tetracalcium phosphate and dicalcium phosphate anhydrous, hardens when mixed
We have discovered a droplet-string transition in concentrated polymer blends which occurs when the size of a dispersed droplet becomes comparable to the gap
A calcium phosphate cement (CPC) was shown to harden at ambient temperatures and form hydroxyapatite as the only end-product. Animal study results showed showed

Sheet metal forming is a multi $10-billion industry in the United States, with an overwhelming portion of its use in the automotive industry as formed sheet
The needs for reference data on properties of biomaterials were identified at a workshop held at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) on
A two-photon transition in cold Rb atoms will be probed with a phase-coherent wide bandwidth femtosecond laser comb. Frequency domain analysis yeilds a high

Light is the supreme messenger. Light tells us something about the cosmos, the make-up of our bodies, and nearly everything in between. Light carries structural
The modification of lifetime experienced by a fluorescent molecule placed in an arbitrary environment is investigated theoretically within the framework of
sed on variable temperature ultrahigh vacuum scanning tunneling microscopy data, we propose a two dimensional phase diagram of monolayerdecanethiol on Au(111)
Lasers and laser metrology have become an important part of our daily lives. Since the inception of the first operable laser 41 years ago, there has been
The development and mining of materials databases are described, with examples based on data from metals fatigue and corrosion experiments. Much of the research
