A stack of quasi-randomly oriented quartz plates has been assembled as a calibration artifact for mode-coupled polarization-mode dispersion. The design of the artifact, the reasons for choosing it, the procedure for its assembly, and its implementation are
The amplitudes of shear horizontal plate waves generated by EMATs (electromagnetic acoustic transducers) are measured to obtain estimated of the magnetostriction of a steel specimen. The wave amplitude is linked to magnetrostriction through an existing
Many advanced plasma diagnostic techniques and plasma models require fundamental physical data in order to make accurate measurements or predictions. Fundamental electron-interaction data are among the most critical since electron collisions are the

An important consideration in developing standards and regulations that govern the production and use of commercial nanoscale materials is the development of robust and reliable measurements to assess potential biological effects of these nanomaterials
As part of the National Institute of Standards and Technology World Trade Center Investigation, failure modes of the connections attaching the composite floor system to the exterior wall of WTC 1 and WTC 2 were surveyed. Metallographic analyses of intact
This book chapter describes the processes leading to nonlinear excitations in ferrites at high power levels. We start from equation of motion that include nonlinear terms leading to nonlinear processes. First and second order Suhl instabilities for
Comparison of optical frequency measurements to predictions of quantum electrodynamics (QED) for Rydberg states of one-electron ions can test theory and allow new determinations of constants of nature to be made. Simplifications in the QED theory of high
