Mapping the Vif-A3G interaction using peptide arrays: a basis for anti-HIV lead peptides

June 15, 2013
Author(s)
Jeeseong Hwang, Ji Y. Lee, Abigail E. Miller, Tali Reingewertz, Elena Britan-Rosich, Shahar Rotem-Bamberger, Mathias Viard, Robert Blumenthal, Assaf Friedler
Human apolipoprotein-B mRNA-editing catalytic polypeptide-like 3G (A3G) is a cytidine deaminase that restricts retroviruses, endogenous retro-elements and DNA viruses. A3G plays a key role in the anti- HIV-1 innate cellular immunity. The HIV-1 Vif protein

ASME Journal of Computing and Information Science in Engineering (JCISE)

June 14, 2013
Author(s)
Vijay Srinivasan
For over a decade this journal has supported and advanced the research and applications at the intersection of information science and mechanical engineering. In that process it has established itself as a premier outlet for cutting edge research in the

CHARACTERIZING ENERGY CONSUMPTION OF THE INJECTION MOLDING PROCESS

June 14, 2013
Author(s)
Jatinder Madan, Mahesh Mani, Kevin W. Lyons
Presently available systems for sustainability assessment do not fully account for aspects related to a product’s manufacturing. In an effort to make more sustainable decisions, today’s industry seeks reliable methods to assess and compare sustainability

Dephasing of Si singlet-triplet qubits due to charge and spin defects

June 14, 2013
Author(s)
Dimitrie Culcer, Neil M. Zimmerman
We study the effect of charge and spin noise on singlet-triplet qubits in Si quantum dots. We set up a theoretical framework aimed at enabling experiment to efficiently identify the most deleterious defects, and complement it with the knowledge of defects

Dimensional Metrology and Imaging of Cellulose Nanocrystals

June 14, 2013
Author(s)
Michael T. Postek, Andras Vladar
Cellulose nanocrystals are one group of nanoparticles that have high potential economic value but, also present many basic research and manufacturing challenges. These challenges are not only in development of the fundamental processes needed for the

Optimized superconducting detectors using the proximity effect in Ti/TiN multilayers

June 14, 2013
Author(s)
David P. Pappas, Michael R. Vissers, Jiansong Gao, Martin O. Sandberg, David S. Wisbey, Kent D. Irwin
We apply the superconducting proximity effect in TiN/Ti multi-layers films to tune the critical temperature, $T_C$ (to within 10 mK) with high uniformity (less than 15 mK spread) across a 75 mm wafer. Reproducible $T_C$'s are obtained from 0.8 - 2.5 K

SemEval-2013 Task 7: The Joint Student Response Analysis and 8th Recognizing Textual Entailment Challenge

June 14, 2013
Author(s)
Myroslava Dzikovska, Rodney Nielsen, Chris Brew, Claudia Leacock, Danilo Giampiccolo, Luisa Bentivogli, Peter Clark, Ido Dagan, Hoa T. Dang
We present the results of the Joint Student Response Analysis and 8th Recognizing Textual Entailment Challenge, aiming to bring together researchers in educational NLP technology and textual entailment. The task of giving feedback on student answers

MEMS Device for Fatigue Testing of 25 mm Thick Aluminum Specimens

June 13, 2013
Author(s)
Li-Anne Liew, David T. Read, Nicholas Barbosa
We report the development and demonstration of a MEMS test instrument to perform fatigue testing on 25 µm thick aluminum 1145 H19 foil. Both the foil material and the specimen fabrication were obtained from commercial sources, separate from the fabrication

The Spin Hall Effect in a Quantum Gas

June 13, 2013
Author(s)
Matthew C. Beeler, Ross A. Williams, Karina K. Jimenez Garcia, Lindsay J. LeBlanc, Abigail R. Perry, Ian B. Spielman
Electronic properties like current flow are usually unaffected by the electron’s spin angular momentum, an internal degree of freedom present in quantum particles that can usually be either “up” or “down”. The spin-Hall effects (SHEs), first proposed 40

ITL Updates Glossary of Key Information Security Terms

June 12, 2013
Author(s)
Elizabeth B. Lennon
This ITL Bulletins describes the recent update of NISTIR 7298, Glossary of Key Information Security Terms. NISTIR 7298, Revision 2, provides a summary glossary of terms used in NIST publications and other relevant sources.

Formation of Disk- and Stacked Disk-Like Self-Assembled Morphologies from Cholesterol Functionalized Aliphatic Polycarbonate Containing Amphiphilic Diblock Copolymers

June 10, 2013
Author(s)
Vivek M. Prabhu, Shrinivas Venkataraman, Ashlynn Lee, Yi Yan Yang, James Hedrick, Hareem Maune
In this study, a cholesterol functionalized aliphatic cyclic carbonate monomer, 2-(5-methyl-2-oxo-1,3-dioxane-5-carboxyloyloxy)ethyl carbamate (MTC-Chol) was synthesized. The organo-catalytic ring opening polymerization of MTC-Chol was accomplished by

High-Resolution Photocurrent Microscopy Using Near-Field Cathodoluminescence of Quantum Dots

Heayoung Yoon, Youngmin Lee, Christopher C. Bohn, Seung H. Ko, Anthony G. Gianfrancesco, Jonathan S. Steckel, Seth Coe-Sullivan, Albert A. Talin, Nikolai B. Zhitenev
We report a fast, versatile photocurrent imaging technique to visualize the local photo response of solar energy devices and optoelectronics using near-field cathodoluminescence (CL) from a homogeneous quantum dot layer. This approach is quantitatively

Hydrated Phases in Blended Cement Systems and Synthetic Saltstone Grouts

June 10, 2013
Author(s)
Kenneth A. Snyder, Paul E. Stutzman
A blended binder system (10 % portland cement, 45 % fly ash, and 45 % slag) is characterized as part of a broader study of its long-term effectiveness in stabilizing treated salt waste at the Savannah River Site. The binder system is reproduced in the

Mechanochromic photonic gels
