Many current and future dark matter and neutrino detectors are designed to record scintillation light with a large array of photomultiplier tubes (PMTs). The energy resolution and particle identification capabilities of these detectors depend in part on

Interrogating the Carbon and Oxygen K-edge NEXAFS of a CO2-dosed Hyperbranched Aminosilica

December 19, 2014
Author(s)
Laura Espinal, Martin L. Green, Dean M. DeLongchamp, Watcharop Chaikittisilp, Jarod C. Horn, Miles Sakwa-Novak, Cherno Jaye, Daniel A. Fischer, Nicholas Brunelli, Christopher Jones
Near edge x-ray absorption fine structure (NEXAFS) spectroscopy was used to study the adsorption of CO2 in a hyperbranched aminosilica (HAS) compound, a porous solid state material with great potential for carbon capture applications. After dosing a

NIST Micronutrients Measurement Quality Assurance Program Winter, Spring, and Fall 1992 Comparability Studies: Results for Round Robins XXIV, XXV, and XXVI Fat-Soluble Vitamins and Carotenoids in Human Serum and Round Robin 3 Ascorbic Acid in Human Serum

Reconstruction of mode structure of faint sources and its applications

Author(s)
Sergey V. Polyakov, Alan L. Migdall, Elizabeth A. Goldschmidt, Giorgio Brida, Stefan Kuck, Fabrizio Piacentini, Ivo P. Degiovanni, I. Ruo Berchera, Marco Genovese
We build upon our newly developed mode reconstruction technique that takes advantage of higher-order photon number statistics and propose new experiments.

Solidification

December 19, 2014
Author(s)
William J. Boettinger, Dilip K. Banerjee
In this chapter, we give a general view of the formation of the solid from its melt. This process is generally driven by the extraction of heat from the melt but fluid flow has a major influence on solidification. Thus an early section deals with transport

The Structure of Optimal and Near Optimal Target Sets in Consensus Models

December 19, 2014
Author(s)
Fern Y. Hunt
We consider the problem of identifying a subset of nodes in a network that will enable the fastest spread of information in a decentralized environment. In a model of communication based on a random walk on an undirected graph, the optimal set over all

Applicability of post-ionization theory to laser-assisted field evaporation of magnetite

December 18, 2014
Author(s)
Ann C. Chiaramonti Debay, D. K. Schreiber, Lyle M. Gordon, Karen Kruska
Analysis of the mean Fe ion charge state from laser-assisted field evaporation of magnetite (Fe3O4) reveals unexpected trends as a function of laser pulse energy that break from conventional post-ionization theory for metals. For Fe ions evaporated from

Product Data Sheet Ontology

December 18, 2014
Author(s)
Binyam G. Abeye, Edward J. Barkmeyer Jr., Peter O. Denno
Data exchange transactions for the engineering, procurement, and operation of process equipment depend heavily on product data sheets. Product data sheets are traditional paper forms that serve as the main method of communicating detailed equipment

193 nm scatterfield microscope illumination optics

December 17, 2014
Author(s)
Martin Y. Sohn, Richard M. Silver
A scatterfield microscope for deep sub-wavelength semiconductor metrology using 193 nm light has been designed. In addition to accommodating the fixed numerical aperture and size of its commercial catadioptric objective lens, the illumination optics are

CHAPTER 2: Experimental Techniques 1: Direct Methods

December 17, 2014
Author(s)
Mark O. McLinden
Fluid density is mass per unit volume, and the experimental techniques described in this chapter involve, in one way or another, a clearly defined mass and volume. For this reason, we describe them as “direct” methods. This is in contrast to the vibrating

CHAPTER 4: Density Standards and Traceability

December 17, 2014
Author(s)
Mark O. McLinden
Most instruments for measuring fluid density are not absolute instruments—they must be calibrated with one or more fluids of known density. The selection of appropriate calibration fluids is vital to achieving low uncertainty in a measurement. Also

Guidelines for Media Sanitization

December 17, 2014
Author(s)
Richard L. Kissel, Andrew R. Regenscheid, Matthew A. Scholl, Kevin M. Stine
Media sanitization refers to a process that renders access to target data on the media infeasible for a given level of effort. This guide will assist organizations and system owners in making practical sanitization decisions based on the categorization of

Microwave Rotational Spectral Study of CH3CN-H2O and Ar-CH3CN

December 17, 2014
Author(s)
Francis J. Lovas, J. Sobhanadrib
The microwave spectrum of the molecular complex of acetonitrile (CH3CN) with water (H2O) has been studied with a pulsed-beam Fourier Transform Microwave Spectrometer (FTMW) from a gas sample of 1 % by volume of CH3CN in Ar flowed over a water sample. The

Influence of Metal?MoS2 Interface on MoS2 Transistor Performance: Comparison of Ag and Ti Contacts

Hui H. Yuan, Guangjun Cheng, Lin You, Haitao Li, Hao Zhu, Wei Li, Joseph J. Kopanski, Yaw S. Obeng, Angela R. Hight Walker, David J. Gundlach, Curt A. Richter, D. E. Ioannou, Qiliang Li
In this work, we present a study of enhancing MoS2 transistor performance by using proper metal contact. We found that the on-state current of MoS2 field-effect transistors with 30 nm Au/ 30 nm Ag contacts is enhanced more than 60 times and the
