A serum small molecule biosignature of radiation exposure from total body irradiated patients

August 21, 2017
Author(s)
Evagelia C. Laiakis, Evan L. Pannkuk, Siddheshwar Chauthe, Yi-Wen Wang, Ming Liang, Tytus Mak, Christopher A. Barker, Giuseppe Astarita, Albert J. Fornace
The potential of radiological accidents and nuclear terrorism have increased the need for development of new rapid biodosimetry methods. In addition, in a clinical setting the issue of an individual's radiosensitivity should be taken into consideration

Blunt scratch strength of polycrystalline alumina

August 21, 2017
Author(s)
Robert F. Cook
A model for the fracture strength of brittle materials controlled by blunt (spherical) scratches is developed and compared with measurements on a polycrystalline alumina. The model is based on a residual stress-intensity factor for median cracks at

Developing an Assessment Methodology for Community Resilience

August 21, 2017
Author(s)
Maria Dillard
Communities can be characterized as complex systems, with resilience as an emergent property. Complex systems are systems composed of interconnected parts that exhibit emergent properties that arise from the collective and cannot be derived from the

Strain Measurement of 3D Structured Nanodevices by EBSD

August 20, 2017
Author(s)
William A. Osborn, Lawrence H. Friedman, Mark D. Vaudin
We present a new methodology to accurately measure strain magnitudes from 3D nanodevices using Electron Backscatter Diffraction (EBSD). Because the dimensions of features on these devices are smaller than the interaction volume for backscattered electrons

The 2016 NIST Speaker Recognition Evaluation

August 20, 2017
Author(s)
Seyed Omid Sadjadi, Timothee N. Kheyrkhah, Audrey N. Tong, Craig S. Greenberg, Douglas A. Reynolds, Elliot Singer, Lisa Mason, Jaime Hernandez-Cordero
In 2016, NIST conducted the most recent in an ongoing series of speaker recognition evaluations (SRE) to foster research in robust text-independent speaker recognition, as well as measure performance of the current state-of-the-art systems, targeting in

Conceptual Modeling

August 19, 2017
Author(s)
Conrad E. Bock, Fatma Dandashi, Sanford Friedenthal, Natalie Harrison, Steven Jenkins, Leon McGinnis, Janos Sztipanovits, Adelinde Uhrmacher, Eric Weisel, Lin Zhang
Understanding and developing complex systems requires collaboration between individuals with widely varying expertise. Communication between these individuals is facilitated by conceptual models. Conceptual models are early stage artifacts that integrate

Baseline Assessment of 25-Hydroxyvitamin D Assay Performance: A Vitamin D Standardization Program (VDSP) Interlaboratory Comparison Study

August 18, 2017
Author(s)
Christopher T. Sempos, Stephen Wise, Karen W. Phinney, Susan Tai, Johanna Camara, Gary L. Myers, Ramon Durazo-Arvizu, Lu Tian, John H. Eckfeldt, Andrew N. Hoofnagle, W. Greg Miller, Lorin M. Bachmann, Ian S. Young, J Pettit, G. Caldwell, A Liu, S P. Brooks, K. Sarafin, M. Thamm, C. Scheidt-Nave, G. B. Mensink, M. Busch, M. Rabenberg, Kevin Cashman, Mairead Kiely, Michael Kinsella, K Galvan, J. Y. Zhang, K OH, S. W. Lee, C. L. Jung, L. Cox, G. Goldberg, K. Guberg, S. Meadows, A. Prentice, G. Swan, A. Tedstone, Graham D. Carter, Julia C. Jones, P. Brannon, R. M. Lucas, P. M. Crump, Glenville Jones, E. Cavalier, Joyce Merkel, J. M. Betz
The Vitamin D Standardization Program (VDSP) coordinated an interlaboratory study to assess the comparability of measurements of total 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D] in human serum, which is the primary marker of vitamin D status. A set of 50 individual

Combinatorial and MC/DC Coverage Levels of Random Testing

August 18, 2017
Author(s)
Sergiy Vilkomir, Aparna Alluri, D. Richard Kuhn, Raghu N. Kacker
Software testing criteria differ in effectiveness, numbers of required test cases, and processes of test generation. Specific criteria are often compared with random testing as the simplest basic approach and, in some cases, random testing shows a

Combinatorial Testing of Full Text Search in Web Applications

August 18, 2017
Author(s)
M S Raunak, David R. Kuhn, Raghu N. Kacker
Database driven web applications are some of most widely developed systems today. Testing these applications effectively and discovering difficult-to-find bugs continues to be a challenge for software engineers. In this paper, we show that combinatorial

Dispersive optical detection of magnetic Feshbach resonances in ultracold gases

August 18, 2017
Author(s)
Eite Tiesinga, B Sawyer, M Horvath, A Deb, N Kjaergaard
Magnetically tunable Feshbach resonances in ultracold atomic systems are chiefly identified and characterized through time consuming atom loss spectroscopy. We describe an off-resonant dispersive optical probing technique to rapidly locate Feshbach

Intricate Resonant Raman Response in Anisotropic ReS2

August 18, 2017
Author(s)
Amber McCreary, Jeffrey R. Simpson, Yuanxi Wang, Daniel Rhodes, Kazunori Fujisawa, Luis Balicas, Madan Dubey, Vincent H. Crespi, M. Terrones, Angela R. Hight Walker
Rhenium disulfide is an exciting material due to its strong in-plane anisotropy, thus offering an additional physical parameter that can be tuned for advanced applications. ReS2 provides a major advantage for optoelectronics as it is both stable in air and
