The Infrared Spectrum of NN...CO+ Trapped in Solid Neon

December 15, 2011
Author(s)
Warren E. Thompson, Marilyn E. Jacox
Codeposition of a Ne:N2:CO = 200:1:1 mixture at 4.3 K with a beam of very pure neon atoms excited to their energy levels between 16.6 and 16.85 eV leads to stabilization in the resulting solid of sufficient NNCO+ for detection of its NN- and CO-stretching

When Does a Circuit Really Fail?

December 15, 2011
Author(s)
Jason T. Ryan, Lan Wei, Jason P. Campbell, Richard G. Southwick, Kin P. Cheung, Tony Oates, Phillip Wong, John S. Suehle

A METHOD FOR DETERMINING THE ENVIRONMENTAL FOOTPRINT OF INDUSTRIAL PRODUCTS USING SIMULATION

December 14, 2011
Author(s)
Erik Lindskog, Linus Lundh, Jonatan K. Berglund, Yung-Tsun Lee, Anders Skoogh, Bjorn Johansson
Effective assessment and communication of environmental footprint is increasingly important to process development and marketing purposes. Traditionally, static methods have been applied to analyze the environmental impact during a product's life cycle

Energy Efficiency Analysis for a Casting Production System

December 14, 2011
Author(s)
Jonatan K. Berglund, John L. Michaloski, Swee K. Leong, Guodong Shao, Frank H. Riddick, Jorge Arinez, Stephan Biller
A growing number of manufacturing industries are initiating efforts to address sustainability issues. A study by the National Association of Manufacturers indicated that the manufacturing sector currently accounts for over a third of all energy consumed in

Electronic structures of lithium battery interphase compounds: comparison between inelastic x-ray scattering measurements and theory

December 13, 2011
Author(s)
Eric L. Shirley, Timothy Fister, Moritz Schmidt, Paul Fenter, Christopher Johnson, Michael Slater, Maria K. Chan
In lithium ion batteries, decomposition of the electrolyte near an electrode surface can play a crucial role in determining the device’s long-term performance. The reactivity and the low core binding energy of lithium, carbon, oxygen, and fluorine have

Report of the 96th National Conference on Weights and Measures (2011) SP1125

December 13, 2011
Author(s)
Linda D. Crown, Tina G. Butcher, Steven E. Cook, Richard A. Harshman, Lisa Warfield, David A. Sefcik
The 96th Annual Meeting of the National Conference on Weights and Measures (NCWM) was held July 17 to 21, 2011, at the Holiday Inn Downtown at the Park, Missoula, Montana. The theme of the meeting was Educating Today for Tomorrow. Reports by the NCWM Board

Universal Low-rank Matrix Recovery from Pauli Measurements

December 12, 2011
Author(s)
Yi-Kai Liu
We study the problem of reconstructing an unknown matrix M of rank r and dimension d using O(rd poly log d) Pauli measurements. This has applications in quantum state tomography, and is a non- commutative analogue of a well-known problem in compressed

Extracting Hierarchies With Overlapping Structure From Network Data

December 11, 2011
Author(s)
Brian D. Cloteaux
Relationships between entities in many complex systems, such as the Internet and social networks, have a natural hierarchical organization. Understanding these inherent hierarchies is essential for creating models of these systems. Thus, there is a recent

Linear Algebra and Sequential Importance Ssampling for Network Reliability

December 11, 2011
Author(s)
David G. Harris, Francis Sullivan, Isabel M. Beichl
The reliability polynomial of a graph gives the probability that a graph is connected as a function of the probability that each edge is connected. The coefficients of the reliability polynomial count the number of connected subgraphs of various sizes

Characterization of Stabilized Zero Valent Iron Nanoparticles

December 10, 2011
Author(s)
Lauren F. Greenlee, Stephanie A. Hooker
The demonstrated toxicity of certain groups of organic micropollutants in water sources has motivated research in developing novel materials that are able to remove dissolved organic molecules from an aqueous system through adsorption and/or degradation

Three-dimensional Nanometrology with TSOM Optical Method

December 10, 2011
Author(s)
Ravikiran Attota
Through-focus scanning optical microscopy (TSOM) is a new metrology method that achieves 3D nanoscale measurement sensitivity using conventional optical microscopes; measurement sensitivities are comparable to what is typical when using scatterometry

Guidelines on Security and Privacy in Public Cloud Computing

December 9, 2011
Author(s)
Timothy Grance, Wayne Jansen
Cloud computing can and does mean different things to different people. The common characteristics most interpretations share are on-demand scalability of highly available and reliable pooled computing resources, secure access to metered services from

SRM NIST Standard Reference Materials Catalog, 2012

December 9, 2011
Author(s)
Regina R. Montgomery
NIST Standard Reference Materials (SRMs) are used by industry, government, and academia to ensure the highest quality measurements. This catalog lists over 1200 individual reference materials produced and sold by NIST, each with carefully assigned values

Trapped-Ion State Detection through Coherent Motion

December 9, 2011
Author(s)
Till P. Rosenband, David Hume, Chin-Wen Chou, David R. Leibrandt, Michael J. Thorpe, David J. Wineland
Coherent control of trapped atomic ions has led to several recent advances in quantum information processing 1 and precision spectroscopy 2. A basic requirement for these and other quantum-metrology experiments is the ability to detect the state of an

An 84 Pixel All-Silicon Corrugated Feedhorn for CMB Measurements
