The Fano-Anderson model for a discrete state embedded within a continuum is revisited within the context of excitation and decay processes which lead to some
The perceived tradeoff between the speed of development and the technical soundness of the resulting standards may not be relevant to the development of complex

Nominally identical ceramic-element ultrasonic transducers have been used successfully to calibrate ASTM E127-type flat-bottom-hole (FBH) aluminum reference
An optical sensor containing polarizing optical components has been constructed for the purpose of monitoring fluorescence anisotropy during polymer processing
The viscoelastic properties of a near critical polybutadiene(PB)/polyisoprene(PI) blends were investigated in oscillatory shear above and below the lower

We have studied the behavior of interlayer coupling in giant magnetoresistance (GMR) spin valves as a function of seed valves as a function of seed layer
We demonstrate the removal of the dither modulation from an iodine-stabilized He-Ne laser by using a frequency-modulated acousto-optic modulator and feed
We have measured branching fractions for ultraviolet electric dipole transitions from upper levels belonging to the 3d 5( 6S)4p 5P and 3d 5 ( 6S)4p 7P terms of
We report the first use of pulsed terahertz spectroscopy to examine low frequency collective vibrational modes of biomolecules. Several absorption features were
The much-discussed electron-hole attraction in resonant inelastic x-ray scattering is analyzed. Its effects on fluorescence yields and emission features are
The Binary-Encounter Dipole (BED) model for electron-impact ionization is applied to helium using the continuum dipole oscillator strength calculated from the
We have used a metal ebulliometer to make measurements of the vapor pressure of heptane. Measurements spanned the temperature range from 335 K to 503 K, and
The dim-light photoreceptor rhodopsin is a prototypical member of the family of seven-transmembrane helix receptors that are coupled to guanine nucletide
Calibration of RF power sensors at levels greater than 10 mW and uncertainties on the order of 2 % need not require complex calorimetric methods. Using a series

The surface molecular orientation of a liquid crystalline (LC) layer made up a semi-fluorinated (SF) single side-groups [-CO-(CH 2) x-1-(CF 2) yF] (single SF
The thermal conductivity of porous α-Al 2O 3 specimens prepared using nanosize γ-Al 2O 3 powder or conventional sub-micro a}-alumina powders was studied. Plots
An analysis is made of contact damage in brittle coatings on metal substrates, using as a case study a dental porcelain coating of thickness between 0.1 and 1

Currently available glass ionomer, resin-modified glass ionomer and compomer materials are susceptible to brittle fracture and, therefore, are inadequate for
Polystyrene(PS)/o-terphenyl (oTP) solutions confined to nano-meter scale pores were studied by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) to investigate size and

Model autoxidative, radiolytic and product studies are presented which explore the potential of 1,2,5-trimethylpyrrole (TMP) as an oxygen scavenger additive for
A first attempt to use cobalt corrins (B 12) as homogeneous catalysts for photoreduction of CO 2 to CO and formic acid demonstrates that the corrins act as
The first step of the DNA base-excision repair pathway is the removal of the damaged base by cleavage of the N-glycosidic bond through the action of a DNA
