Thermal Limits on Field Alignment of Nanoparticle FePt Media

October 12, 2021
Author(s)
J A. Bain, William F. Egelhoff Jr.
We derive a simple expression for the angular distribution of ferromagnetic FePt particles an applied field in thermal equilibrium. This system is closely related to the Langevin expression for paramagnetic susceptibility, which computes the average

3D printing using concrete extrusion: a roadmap for research

June 14, 2018
Author(s)
Scott Z. Jones, Richard Buswell, Wilson Leal de Silva, Justin Dirrenberger
Large-scale additive manufacturing processes for construction utilise computer controlled placement of extruded cement-based mortar to create physical objects layer-by-layer. Demonstrated applications include component manufacture and placement of in-situ

Powder Bed Layer Geometry

June 27, 2016
Author(s)
Michael L. McGlauflin, Shawn P. Moylan
This paper investigates the measurement of machine performance errors associated with the powder bed geometry of a commercially available laser additive manufacturing (AM) machine. The methodology is based on existing ISO/ANSI standards as employed in

Development of traceable measurement of the diffuse optical properties of solid reference standards for biomedical optics at the National Institute of Standards and Technology

July 1, 2015
Author(s)
David W. Allen, Paul Lemaillet, Jean-Pierre Bouchard
The development of a national reference instrument dedicated to the measurement of the scattering and absorption properties of solid tissue-mimicking phantoms used as reference standards is presented. The optical properties of the phantoms are measured

Resonant interaction of trapped cold atoms with a magnetic cantilever tip

June 26, 2015
Author(s)
John E. Kitching, Chris Montoya, Jose Valencia, Andrew A. Geraci, Matt Eardley, John M. Moreland
Magnetic resonance in an ensemble of laser-cooled trapped Rb atoms is excited using a micro cantilever with a magnetic tip. The cantilever is mounted on a multi-layer atom chip designed to capture, cool, and magnetically transport cold atoms. The coupling

Controlling Atomic Interactions with Light

December 1, 2012
Author(s)
Ross A. Williams, Lindsay J. LeBlanc, Karina K. Jimenez Garcia, Matthew C. Beeler, Abigail R. Perry, William D. Phillips, Ian B. Spielman
… is vital for applications including atomic clocks, quantum computing, and the use of ultracold quantum gases for …

On interchangeability of two laboratories

June 18, 2010
Author(s)
Chih-Ming Wang, Hariharan K. Iyer
This paper proposes a measure for assessing the degree of equivalence between the two laboratories in a key comparison. The measure is called asymmetric degree of interchangeability. It is asymmetric since, based on this measure, a laboratory may be

A Collection of 2D Elliptic Problems for Testing Adaptive Algorithms

February 26, 2010
Author(s)
William F. Mitchell
Adaptive grid refinement is a critical component of the improvements that have recently been made in algorithms for the numerical solution of partial differential equations (PDEs). The development of new algorithms and computer codes for the solution of

Internal Resistance of Voltage Source Using the FDTD Technique

November 2, 2009
Author(s)
Ae-kyoung Lee
The introduction of the internal resistance of a voltage source is a very effective method for analyzing the electromagnetic characteristics of antennas and microstrip devices using the FDTD technique. However, some trial and error could be accompanied for

The Virtual Cybernetic Building Testbed-A Building Emulator

July 16, 2009
Author(s)
Steven T. Bushby, Michael A. Galler, Natascha S. Milesi-Ferretti, Cheol D. Park
Building emulators couple computer simulations to real control hardware, creating a useful tool for studying building control system performance. The National Institute of Standards and Technology's Virtual Cybernetic Building Testbed (VCBT) is a whole

Avoided crossings between bound states of ultracold Cesium dimers

November 5, 2008
Author(s)
Jeremy M. Hutson, Eite Tiesinga, Paul S. Julienne
We present a new computational method for calculating bound states of ultracold alkali metal dimers in the presence of magnetic fields. The new method is based on propagation of coupled differential equations and does not use a basis set for the

Dynamical Heterogeneity in the Ising Spin Glass

October 16, 2008
Author(s)
S C. Glotzer, N Jan, T Lookman, A B. MacIsaac, P H. Poole
We investigate the relationship between bulk and local relaxation in the Ising spin glass (in 2 and 3 dimensions) for temperatures above but approaching the glass transition temperature, using Monte Carlo computer simulations. We find that the stretched

Purcell and Local-Field Effects in Dielectric Microcavities

October 16, 2008
Author(s)
A Rahmani, Garnett W. Bryant
We present a general, semi-microscopic, self-consistent treatment of spontaneous emission for a two-level atom in a dielectric microcavity with arbitrary shape and size. Lossless and absorbing media are considered. The approach is based on linear-response
