A Demonstration of Fast and Accurate Discrimination and Quantification of Chemically Similar Species Utilizing a Single Cross-Selective Chemiresistor

June 14, 2014
Author(s)
Alexander (. Vergara Tinoco, Kurt D. Benkstein, Christopher B. Montgomery, Stephen Semancik
Performance characteristics of gas-phase microsensors will determine the ultimate utility of these devices for a wide range of chemical monitoring applications. Considerable effort has led to electronic nose devices that utilize multiple cross-selective

Design and Analysis of a 150 K Cascade Joule-Thomson Microcooler

June 9, 2014
Author(s)
Ray Radebaugh, Peter E. Bradley, Collin J. Coolidge, Ryan J. Lewis, Y.C. Lee
Lightweight and compact microcoolers are needed for advanced, hand-held infrared systems. A temperature of 150 K is adequate for high sensitivity with some of the latest IR detectors, which simplifies the cooling requirements compared to 80 K detectors

Acoustic Techniques for Measuring Transport Properties of Gases

May 22, 2014
Author(s)
Keith A. Gillis, Michael R. Moldover
We describe the principles, techniques, and performance of acoustic resonators used to measure the shear viscosity, the thermal conductivity, and the bulk viscosity in gases. We developed the Greenspan acoustic viscometer at NIST, where colleagues used it

Viscosity-ratio measurements with capillary viscometers

May 20, 2014
Author(s)
Robert F. Berg, Eric F. May, Michael R. Moldover
Viscosity-ratio measurements made with capillary viscometers exploit the accurate values of the viscosity of helium resulting from ab initio calculations. Accurate values of the argon-to-helium viscosity ratio are now used for primary acoustic thermometry

Recent advances in vacuum sciences and applications

Miran Mozetic, Kostya Ostrikov, David Ruzic, Davide Curreli, Uros Cvelbar, Alenka Vesel, Gregor Primc, Manfred Leisch, Karl Jousten, Oleg Malyshev, Jay H. Hendricks, laszlo Kover, Alberto Tagliaferro, O Conde, Antonio Silvestre, J Giapintzakis, M Buljan, N Radi?, G Dra?i?, S Bernstorff, H Biederman, O Kyli?n, J Hanu?, S Milo?evi?, A Galtayries, P Dietrich, W Unger, K Stana-Kleinschek, A Drmota?Petri?, Jean-Jacques Pireaux, J W. Rogers, M Anderle, M Lehocky, V Sedlarik
Recent advances in vacuum sciences and applications are reviewed. Novel optical interferometer cavity devices enable pressure measurements with ppm accuracy. Innovative dynamic vacuum standard allows for pressure measurements with temporal resolution of 2

A comparison of literature models for the oxidation of normal heptane

February 1, 2014
Author(s)
David A. Sheen, Wing Tsang
The development of detailed chemical kinetic models has proceeded unabated since the pioneering work of Dixon-Lewis and coworkers forty-five years ago. In that time, computational power has increased ten million-fold, and yet, we do not have a consensus on

Acoustic Gas Thermometry

January 16, 2014
Author(s)
Michael R. Moldover, Roberto M. Gavioso, James B. Mehl, Laurent Pitre, Michael de Podesta, Jintao Zhang
Primary acoustic gas thermometry (AGT) exploits the simple relationship between the speed of sound in a dilute gas u and the thermodynamic temperature T of the gas. For monatomic gases such as argon and helium, u2 = (5/3) kT/m, in the limit of zero

Perfluorohexane Adsorption in BCR-704 Faujasite Zeolite Benchmark Studies for the Seventh Industrial Fluid Properties Simulation Challenge

January 6, 2014
Author(s)
Richard B. Ross, John K. Brennan, Kevin A. Frankel, Jonathan D. Moore, Raymond D. Mountain, Joshua D. Moore, Riaz Ahmad, Matthias Thommes, Vincent K. Shen, Nathan E. Schultz, Daniel Siderius, Kenneth D. Smith
The primary goal of the seventh industrial fluid properties simulation challenge was to test the ability of molecular simulation methods to predict the adsorption of organic adsorbates in zeolitic materials. The challenge focused, in particular, on the

Quantitative bottom-up proteomics depends on digestion conditions

December 2, 2013
Author(s)
Mark S. Lowenthal, Yuxue Liang, Karen W. Phinney, Stephen E. Stein
Accurate quantification is a fundamental requirement in the fields of proteomics and biomarker discovery, and for clinical diagnostic assays. To demonstrate the extent of quantitative variability in measurable peptide concentrations due to differences
