Justin Whiting, Edward Garboczi, Vipin Tondare, John Henry J. Scott, Alkan Donmez, Shawn P. Moylan
The particle size distribution (PSD) and particlemorphology ofmetal powders undoubtedly affects the quality of parts produced by additivemanufacturing (AM). It is, therefore, crucial to accurately knowthe PSD and morphology of these powders. There exist

Amino Acid Exchangeability from Experimental Data

October 12, 2021
Author(s)
L Y. Yampolsky, Arlin Stoltzfus
Amino acid sequence differences between proteins are often interpreted by reference to a pairwise measure of amino acid similarity, based either on observed evolutionary transition probabilities, or on some physicochemical model of effects. However

Coherent Raman Spectra of the v 1 Mode of 10 BF 3 and 11 BF 3

October 12, 2021
Author(s)
Robynne Kirkpatrick, Tony Masiello, Alfons Weber, J Nibler
High resolution (0.001cm-1) coherent anti-Stokes Raman spectroscopy (CARS) was used to directly examine the n1 symmetric stretching mode of the planar symmetric D3h molecules 10BF3 and 11BF3. Simulations of the spectra were done using n1 rovibrational

James S. Sims, Maria Ruiz, Bholanath Padhy
This review presents a survey of the most important achievements in atomic and molecular calculations obtained with the Hylleraas-configuration interaction method (Hy-CI) and its extension the exponentially correlated Hylleraas-configuration interaction

An assessment of US microbiome research

September 23, 2021
Author(s)
Scott Jackson
Genome-enabled technologies have supported a dramatic increase in our ability to study microbial communities in environments and hosts. Taking stock of previously funded microbiome research can help to identify common themes, under-represented areas and

A System for Validating Resistive Neural Network Prototypes

July 27, 2021
Author(s)
Brian Hoskins, Mitchell Fream, Matthew Daniels, Jonathan Goodwill, Advait Madhavan, Jabez J. McClelland, Osama Yousuf, Gina C. Adam, Wen Ma, Muqing Liu, Rasmus Madsen, Martin Lueker-Boden
Building prototypes of heterogeneous hardware systems based on emerging electronic, magnetic, and photonic devices is an increasingly important area of research. On the face of it, the novel implementation of these systems, especially for online learning

Real-Time Low-Frequency Oscillations Monitoring

July 26, 2021
Author(s)
Bin Hu, Hamid Gharavi
A major concern for interconnected power grid systems is low frequency oscillation, which limits the scalability and transmission capacity of power systems. Un-damped, or poorly-damped oscillations will lead to undesirable conditions or even a catastrophic

Field-induced dehydration and optimal ionic escape paths for C2N membranes

June 11, 2021
Author(s)
Miroslav Barabash, William Gibby, Dmitry Luchinsky, Binquan Luan, Alexander Smolyanitsky, Peter McClintock
Most analytic theories describing electrostatically driven ion transport through water-filled nanopores assume that the corresponding permeation barriers are bias-independent. While this assumption may hold for sufficiently wide pores under infinitely

High-performance semiconductor quantum dot-single- photon sources

June 3, 2021
Author(s)
Glenn S. Solomon
Single photons are a key, fundamental element of most quantum optical technologies, be it for the development of large-scale quantum communication networks, for quantum simulation, or for connecting quantum memories in a quantum computer. The ideal single

Reduction of charge offset drift using plasma oxidized aluminum in SETs

October 26, 2020
Author(s)
Yanxue Hong, Ryan Stein, Michael Stewart, Neil M. Zimmerman, Joshua M. Pomeroy
Aluminum oxide (AlOx)-based single-electron transistors (SETs) fabricated in ultra-high vacuum (UHV) chambers using in situ plasma oxidation show excellent stabilities over more than a week, enabling applications as tunnel barriers, capacitor dielectrics

Extrapolation And Interpolation Strategies For Efficiently Estimating Structural Observables As a Function Of Temperature And Density

October 8, 2020
Author(s)
Jacob I. Monroe, Harold Wickes Hatch, Nathan NMN Mahynski, M. Scott Shell, Vincent K. Shen
Thermodynamic extrapolation has previously been used to predict arbitrary structural observables in molecular simulations at temperatures (or relative chemical potentials in open- system mixtures) different from those at which the simulation was performed
