Direct imaging of coexisting ordered and frustrated sublattices in artificial ferromagnetic quasicrystals

April 25, 2016
Author(s)
Barry Farmer, Vinayak Bhat, Andrew L. Balk, Eric Teipel, Nathan Smith, John Unguris, D.J. Keavney, Todd Hastings, L .E. De Long
Quasicrystals are rarely found in nature and are difficult to grow in the laboratory, but exhibit unique physical properties resulting from their signature long-range structural order without periodic translational symmetry. Magnetic interactions in

Electronic Nature of the Lock-in Magnetic Transition in CeXAl 4 Si 2

April 25, 2016
Author(s)
J. Gunasekera, Leland Harriger, A. Dahal, A. Maurya, T.W. Heitmann, Steven M.T. Disseler, A. Thamizhavel, S. Dhar, D. J. Singh, D. K. Singh
We have investigated the underlying magnetism in newly discovered single crystal Kondo lattices CeXAl 4Si 2, where X = Rh, Ir. We show that the compound undergoes an incommensurate-to- commensurate magnetic transition at Tc = 9.19 K (10.75 K in Ir). The

Measuring the Usability and Security of Permuted Passwords on Mobile Platforms

April 25, 2016
Author(s)
Kristen K. Greene, John M. Kelsey, Joshua M. Franklin
Password entry on mobile devices significantly impacts both usability and security, but there is a lack of usable security research in this area, specifically for complex password entry. To address this research gap, we set out to assign strength metrics

Optical Spintronics in Organic-Inorganic Perovskites Photovoltaics

April 25, 2016
Author(s)
Junwen Li, Paul M. Haney
Organic-inorganic halide CH 3NH 3PbI 3 solar cells have attracted enormous attention in recent years due to their remarkable power conversion efficiency. These materials should exhibit interesting spin-dependent properties as well, owing to the strong spin

Synchrotron X-Ray Microbeam Diffraction Measurements of Full Elastic Long Range Internal Strain and Stress Tensors in Commercial-Purity Aluminum Processed by Multiple Passes of Equal-Channel Angular Pressing

April 23, 2016
Author(s)
Thien Q. Phan, Lyle E. Levine, I-Fang Lee, Jonathan Z. Tischler, Ruqing Xu, Yi Huang, Terrance G. Langdon, Michael E. Kassner
Synchrotron X-ray microbeam diffraction was used to measure the full elastic long range internal strain and stress tensors of low dislocation density regions within the submicrometer grain/subgrain structure of equal-channel angular pressed (ECAP) AA1050

Guidelines for the Creation of Interoperable Software Identification (SWID) Tags

Author(s)
David A. Waltermire, Brant Cheikes, Larry Feldman, Gregory A. Witte
This report provides an overview of the capabilities and usage of software identification (SWID) tags as part of a comprehensive software lifecycle. As instantiated in the International Organization for Standardization/International Electrotechnical

Best Practices for Privileged User PIV Authentication

April 21, 2016
Author(s)
Hildegard Ferraiolo, David Cooper, Andrew R. Regenscheid, Karen Scarfone, Murugiah P. Souppaya
The Cybersecurity Strategy and Implementation Plan (CSIP), published by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) on October 30, 2015, requires that federal agencies use Personal Identity Verification (PIV) credentials for authenticating privileged users

Burning Velocities of Marginally Flammable Refrigerant-Air Mixtures

April 21, 2016
Author(s)
John Pagliaro, Gregory T. Linteris
Refrigerant working fluids have been predicted to be large contributors to the increase in radiative forcing of the earth. Consequently, existing compounds will soon be phased out. Low-GWP replacements exist, but they tend to be mildly flammable, and there

Configuring and Verifying Reverberation Chambers for Testing Cellular Wireless Devices

April 21, 2016
Author(s)
Catherine A. Remley, Jos N. Dortmans, Catherine Weldon, Thomas B. Meurs, Chih-Ming Wang, Christopher L. Holloway, Perry F. Wilson
Reverberation chambers provide a repeatable test environment for laboratory over-the-air testing and represent a viable solution for testing large-form-factor wireless devices. Such tests often involve “imperfect chamber” configurations in which the

A Roadmap for Regulatory Science Research for Next Generation Sequencing Informatics

The desire to build more energy efficient homes in the United States has led to the expansion of the residential spray polyurethane foam (SPF) insulation industry. Upon application of SPF, reacting chemicals form expanding polyurethane foam that fills

Geometric Decompositions of Bell Polytopes with Practical Applications

April 20, 2016
Author(s)
Peter L. Bierhorst
In the well-studied (2,2,2) Bell experiment consisting of two parties, two measurement settings per party, and two possible outcomes per setting, it is known that if the experiment obeys no- signaling constraints, then the set of admissible experimental
