Observation of antineutrinos from 235U fission by the PROSPECT experiment at HFIR

December 19, 2018
Author(s)
Mark A. Tyra, Denis E. Bergeron, Jerome J. LaRosa, Hans P. Mumm, Svetlana Nour
This letter reports the first observation of antineutrinos from the fission products of highly enriched 235U at the High Flux Isotope Reactor. PROSPECT, the Precision Reactor Oscillation and Spectrum Experiment, consists of a segmented 4 ton 6Li-doped

The role of mass spectrometry in the characterization of biologic protein products

April 25, 2018
Author(s)
Deepali Rathore, John E. Schiel, Anneliese Faustino, Eric Pang, Michael Boyne, Sarah M. Rogstad
Introduction: Mass spectrometry (MS) is widely used in the characterization of biomolecules including peptide and protein therapeutics. These biotechnology products have seen rapid growth over the past few decades and continue to dominate the global

Development of a new UHV/XHV pressure standard (Cold Atom Vacuum Standard)

November 10, 2017
Author(s)
Julia Scherschligt, James A. Fedchak, Daniel Barker, Stephen Eckel, Nikolai Klimov, Constantinos Makrides, Eite Tiesinga
The National Institute of Standards and Technology has recently begun a program to develop a primary pressure standard that is based on ultra-cold atoms, covering a pressure range of 1 × 10-6 Pa to 1 × 10-10 Pa and possibly lower. These pressures

An integrated and automated calibration system for pneumatic piston gauges

October 17, 2017
Author(s)
Yuanchao Yang, Robert G. Driver, John S. Quintavalle, Julia Scherschligt, Katie M. Schlatter, Jacob Edmond Ricker, Gregory F. Strouse, Douglas A. Olson, Jay H. Hendricks
Recently, a transducer-aided crossfloat (TAC) method for pneumatic piston gauges was proposed. The concept is to use a pressure transducer as a very short-term transfer standard between the standard piston gauge and the test one. Different from the

Metrologies for Performance of Impact Mitigating Materials

June 12, 2017
Author(s)
Aaron Forster, Michael Riley
Soft non-linear materials are used to mitigate energy transfer between objects during high rate or frequency events. These impact mitigating materials (IMM) are used in a wide range of applications such as isolating rotating equipment, protecting buildings

DRILLING DOWN ON SMART MANUFACTURING -- ENABLING COMPOSABLE APPS

August 16, 2016
Author(s)
Boonserm Kulvatunyou, Nenad Ivezic, KC Morris, Simon P. Frechette
One of the most exciting new capabilities in Smart Manufacturing (SM) is the provisioning of manufacturing services as unbundled "apps," which could be significantly more flexible and less expensive to use than the current generation of monolithic

Poster:A Logic Based Network Forensics Model for Evidence Analysis

October 15, 2015
Author(s)
Anoop Singhal, Changwei Liu, Duminda Wijesekera
Modern-day attackers tend to use sophisticated multi-stage/multi-host attack techniques and anti-forensics tools to cover their attack traces. Due to the current limitations of intrusion detection and forensic analysis tools, reconstructing attack

A Microliter Capillary Rheometer for Characterization of Protein Solutions

October 10, 2014
Author(s)
Steven D Hudson, Prasad S. Sarangapani, Kalman D. Migler, Jai A. Pathak
Rheometry is an important characterization tool for therapeutic protein solutions because it determines syringeability and relates indirectly to solution stability and thermodynamic interactions. Despite the maturity of rheometry, there remains a need for

Toward a reference architecture for archival systems

July 10, 2013
Author(s)
Raphael Barbau, Joshua Lubell, Sudarsan Rachuri, Sebti Foufou
Long-term preservation of product data is imperative for many organizations. A product data archive should be designed to ensure information accessibility and understanding over time. Approaches such as the Open Archival Information System (OAIS) Reference

Kinematic Modeling and Calibration of a Flexure Based Hexapod Nanopositioner

August 21, 2012
Author(s)
Hongliang Shi, Hai-Jun Su, Nicholas Dagalakis, John A. Kramar
This paper covers the kinematic modeling of a flexure-based, hexapod nanopositioner and a new method of calibration for this type of nanopositioner. This six degrees of freedom tri-stage nanopositioner can generate small displacement, high-resolution

Continuous-variable quantum compressed sensing

July 9, 2012
Author(s)
Yi-Kai Liu, Matthias Ohliger, Vincent Nesme, David Gross, Jens Eisert
We introduce a novel method to faithfully reconstruct unknown quantum states that are approximately low-rank, using only a few measurement settings. The method is general enough to allow for measurements from a continuous family, and is also applicable to

An Overview of Polymer Electrolyte Membranes for Fuel Cell Applications

May 7, 2012
Author(s)
Brandon W. Rowe, Kirt A. Page
While fuel cells have receive considerable attention over the last 10-20 years, the history of hydrogen fuel cells dates back to 1838. It would take more than a century before polymers would be impletmented as an electrolyte for proton transport (1955) and

Comparing VM-Placement Algorithms for On-Demand Clouds

November 29, 2011
Author(s)
Kevin L. Mills, James J. Filliben, Christopher E. Dabrowski
Much recent research has been devoted to investigating algorithms for allocating virtual machines (VMs) to physical machines (PMs) in infrastructure clouds. Many such algorithms address distinct problems, such as initial placement, consolidation, or

Model Checking for Verification of Mandatory Access Control Models and Properties

February 28, 2011
Author(s)
Chung Tong Hu, David R. Kuhn, Tao Xie, J Hwang
Mandatory access control (MAC) mechanisms control which users or processes have access to which resources in a system. MAC policies are increasingly specified to facilitate managing and maintaining access control. However, the correct specification of the

Degradation and Nanoparticle Release of Nanocomposite Coatings Exposed to UV Radiation

June 2, 2010
Author(s)
Tinh Nguyen, Bastien T. Pellegrin, Coralie Bernard, Xiaohong Gu, Justin M. Gorham, Paul E. Stutzman, Alexander J. Shapiro, Walter E. Byrd, Joannie W. Chin
The release of nanoparticles from nanocomposite coatings during their life cycle potentially has negative effects to the environments and presents a roadblock to their uses. The degradation and nanoparticle release of amine-cured epoxy coatings containing

DYNAMIC PERCEPTION WORKSHOP REPORT: Requirements and Standards for Advanced Manufacturing

January 14, 2010
