Targeting hMSC Response via Surface Carbonyl Groups, Contact Angle, and Protein Interactions

March 1, 2019
Author(s)
Max J. Lerman, Shinichiro Muramoto, Navein Arumugasaamy, Michael Van Order, Josephine Lembong, Anushka Gerald, John G. Gillen, John P. Fisher
Traditional 2D culture systems made of polystyrene (PS) require the addition of surface chemistry beyond the nominal phenyl groups present to facilitate and encourage cell adhesion. Determining the surface properties which enhance protein adhesion from

Threshold Schemes for Cryptographic Primitives

March 1, 2019
Author(s)
Luis T. A. N. Brandao, Nicky W. Mouha, Apostol T. Vassilev
The Computer Security Division at the National Institute of Standards and Technology is interested in promoting the security of implementations of cryptographic primitives. This security depends not only on the theoretical properties of the primitives but

A data science challenge for converting airborne remote sensing data into ecological information

February 28, 2019
Author(s)
Sergio Marconi, Sarah J. Graves, Dihong Gong, Shahriari Nia Morteza, Marion Le Bras, Bonnie J. Dorr, Peter Fontana, Justin Gearhart, Craig Greenberg, Dave J. Harris, Sugumar A. Kumar, Agarwal Nishant, Joshi Prarabdh, Sandeep U. Rege, Stephanie A. Bohlman, Ethan P. White, Daisy Z. Wang
In recent years ecology has reached the point where a data science competition could be very productive. Large amounts of open data are increasingly available and areas of shared interest around which to center competitions are increasingly prominent. The

Inter-comparison of Atmospheric Trace Gas Dispersion Models: Barnett Shale Case Study

February 28, 2019
Author(s)
Anna Karion, Thomas Lauvaux, Israel Lopez Coto, Colm Sweeney, Kimberly L. Mueller, Sharon M. Gourdji, Wayne Angevine, Zachary R. Barkley, Aijun Deng, Ariel Stein, James R. Whetstone
Greenhouse gas emissions mitigation requires understanding dominant processes controlling fluxes of these trace gases into the atmosphere at increasingly finer spatial and temporal scales. Trace gas fluxes can be estimated using a variety of approaches

Neutron Instruments for Research in Coordination Chemistry

February 28, 2019
Author(s)
Zi-Ling Xue, Anibal J. Ramirez-Cuesta, Craig Brown, Stuart Calder, Huibo Cao, Bryan C. Chakoumakos, Luke L. Daemen, Ashfia Huq, Alexander I. Kolesnikov, Eugene Mamontov, Andrey A Podlesnyak, Xiaoping Wang
Neutron diffraction and spectroscopies offer unique insight into structures and properties of solids and molecular materials. All neutron instruments located at the various neutron sources are distinct, even if their designs are based on similar principles

Measurement of the impact of turbulence anisoplanatism on precision free-space optical time transfer

February 27, 2019
Author(s)
William C. Swann, Martha I. Bodine, Isaac H. Khader, Jean-Daniel Deschenes, Esther Baumann, Laura C. Sinclair, Nathan R. Newbury
Future highly precise free-space optical clock networks will require optically-based two-way time and frequency transfer links. As these networks extend over longer distances, they will include links between moving platforms, e.g. ground-to-air or ground

Open Speech Analytic Technologies Pilot Evaluation OpenSAT Pilot

February 27, 2019
Author(s)
Frederick R. Byers, Jonathan G. Fiscus, Seyed Omid Sadjadi, Gregory A. Sanders, Mark A. Przybocki
Open Speech Analytic Technologies Pilot Evaluation (OpenSAT) is a new speech analytic technology evaluation series organized by NIST that will begin with a pilot evaluation in the Spring of 2017. The pilot includes three tasks: Speech Activity Detection

Probing Magnetic Excitations in Co^II^ Single-Molecule Magnets by Inelastic Neutron Scattering

Co(acac) 2(H 2O) 2 (1 acac = acetylacetonate), a transition metal complex (S = 3/2), displays field-induced slow magnetic relaxation as a single-molecule magnet (SMMs). For 1 and its isotopologues Co(acac) 2(D 2O) 2 (1-d 4^) and Co(acac-d 7) 2(D 2O) 2 (1-D

A-UGV Capabilities - Recommended Guide to Autonomy Levels

February 26, 2019
Author(s)
Roger V. Bostelman, Elena R. Messina
A-UGV has been defined by ASTM Committee F45 as an "Automatic, Automated, or Autonomous vehicle that operates while in contact with the ground without a human operator." However, what do the levels actually mean to manufacturers, users, or especially

Lower critical solution temperature in polyelectrolyte coacervates

February 26, 2019
Author(s)
Samim Ali, Markus Bleuel, Vivek Prabhu
Model linear oppositely-charged polyelectrolyte complexes exhibit a lower critical solution temperature. The coexist-ence curves narrow with increasing monovalent salt concentration (Cs) that lowers the polymer concentration (Cp) in the polymer-rich phase

Evidence for moire excitons in van der Waals heterostructures

February 25, 2019
Author(s)
Kha Tran, Galan Moody, Travis M. Autry, Kevin L. Silverman, Fengcheng Wu, Junho Choi, Akshay Singh, Jacob Embley, Andre Zepeda, Marshall Cambel, Kyoung Kim, Amritesh Rai, Daniel Sanchez, Takashi Taniguchi, Kenji Watanabe, Li Yang, Nanshu Lu, Sanjay Banerjee, emanuel tutuc, Allan H. MacDonald, Xiaoqin Li
Recent advances in the isolation and stacking of monolayers of van der Waals materials have provided approaches for the preparation of quantum materials in the ultimate two-dimensional limit. In van der Waals heterostructures formed by stacking two

Chung Tong Hu, David F. Ferraiolo, David R. Kuhn, Adam Schnitzer, Kenneth Sandlin, Robert Miller, Karen Scarfone
[Includes updates as of February 25, 2019] This document provides Federal agencies with a definition of attribute based access control (ABAC). ABAC is a logical access control methodology where authorization to perform a set of operations is determined by

Identification of a mechanogenetic link between substrate stiffness and chemotherapeutic response in breast cancer

February 25, 2019
Author(s)
Brian G. Bush, Scott H. Medina, Emily Sevcik, Maggie Cam, Frank W. DelRio, Kaustav Nandy, Joel P. Schneider
