The diametral tensile strength (DTS) and compressive strength (CS) of a calcium phosphate cement comprised of tetracalcium phosphate and dicalcium phosphate
In July of 1999, three agencies in the US government (the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency, the National Science Foundation, and the National Institute
Two of the most critical requirements in support of producing reliable face-recognition systems are a large database of facial images and a testing procedure to
As the capabilities of intrusion detection systems (IDS) advance, attackers may attempt to disable an organization's IDS before attempting to penetrate more
Reference Material (RM) 8456, Ultra High Molecular Weight Polyethylene (UHMWPE) is now available from The National Institute of Standards and Technology. RM

Sn-rich alloys in the Sn-Ag-Cu system are being studied for their potential as Pb-free solders. Thus, the location of the ternary eutectic involving L, (Sn), Ag
The partial phase diagrams of Ag with the constituent oxides of the Pb-BSCCO system (Pb,Bi:Sr:Ca:Cu:O) have been investigated, with emphasis on initial melting

We present experimental results on the single chain dimensions of isotopic blends (both mismatched and matched molecular masses) of poly(dimethyl siloxane)
This work discusses the theory of resonant inelastic x-ray scattering (RIXS) in the s-p bonded solids, graphite, hexagonal boron nitride (hBN), diamond, and

The desorption yields of excited hydrogen atoms from the sufaces of KCI, KBr, NaCl, NaF and LiF have been measured as a function of incident photon and electron
A procedure for the resummation of nonalternating divergent perturbation series is described. The prescription combines the Borel transformation with Pade

A laser-based facility has been developed to provide high-flux, monochromatic, Lambertian radiation over the spectral range from 0.200 um to 18 um. The facility
We investigate theoretically the properties of a trapped gas of fermionic atoms both in the normal and the superfluid phase. A detailed analysis including the

The complete molecular structure of the high-energy, gauche rotamer of 1,1,2,2-tetrafluoroethane (TFEA), Freon F134, has been determined using Fourier transform
The Bureau International des Poids et Mesures (BIPM) has historically maintained the results of international intercomparisons of luminous intensity and
We develop a free-energy model for star polymers in good solvents that accurately describes concentrated polymer solutions and displays the correct universal
This paper reviews the development and use of Josephson voltage standards over the last 30 years, including classical dc standards, programmable standards based
