Hydration-Induced Spin-Glass State in a Frustrated Na-Mn-O Triangular Lattice

May 18, 2016
Author(s)
Ioanna Bakaimi, Rosaria Brescia, Craig Brown, Alexander A. Tsirlin, Mark A. Green, Alexandros Lappas
Birnessite compounds are stable across a wide range of compositions that produces a remarkable diversity in their physical, electrochemical and functional properties. These are hydrated analogues of the magnetic frustrated, mixed-valent manganese oxide

Modeling of Suspension Flow in a Pipe Geometry and Rheometers

May 18, 2016
Author(s)
Nicos Martys, Chiara F. Ferraris, William L. George
Abstract Measurement and prediction of the flow of suspensions like cement based materials represents a significant challenge for both the experimentalist and modeler. In this paper, results of a computational study of suspension flow in a pipe and a

Preface (Semiconductor Materials for Solar Photovoltaic Cells)

May 18, 2016
Author(s)
Winnie Wong-Ng, Mariappan Paranthaman, Raghu Bhattacharya
This introductory chapter briefly describes the book "Semiconductor Materials for Solar Photovoltaic Cells", coedited by M. Parans Paranthaman, Winnie Wong-Ng, and Raghu N. Bhattacharya (Springer US, 2015). This essential reference provides the most

The New SURF Beamline 3

May 18, 2016
Author(s)
Robert E. Vest
A new beamline is being commissioned at the Synchrotron Ultraviolet Radiation Facility (SURF III) on the Gaithersburg, MD campus of the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). SURF III is a 380-MeV synchrotron radiation source providing

Antioxidant Cerium Oxide Nanoparticles in Biology and Medicine

May 17, 2016
Author(s)
Bryant C. Nelson, Monique E. Johnson, Marlon L. Walker, Kathryn R. Riley, Christopher M. Sims
Previously, catalytic cerium oxide nanoparticles (CNPs, nanoceria, CeO2-x NPs) have been widely utilized for chemical mechanical planarization in the semiconductor industry and for reducing harmful emissions and improving fuel combustion efficiency in the

State of the Field: Extreme Precision Radial Velocities

May 17, 2016
Author(s)
Debra A. Fischer, Guillem Anglada-Escude, Pamela Arriagada, Roman V. Baluev, Jacob L. Bean, Lars A. Buchhave, Abhijit K. Chakraborty, Scott Diddams, Gabor Furesz, B. S. Gaudi, Philip C. Gregory, Frank Grundahl, Guillaume Hebrard, David W. Hogg, Andrew W. Howard, Colby A. Jurgenson, David W. Latham, Greg Laughlin, Thomas J. Loredo, Suvrath Mahadevan, Tyler M. McCracken, Mario R. Perez, David F. Phillips, P Plavchan, Lisa Prato, Andreas Quirrenbach, Paul Robertson, David Sawyer, Jason D. Eastman, Pedro Figueira, Eric B. Ford, Daniel Foreman-Mackey, Paul Fournier, John A. Johnson, Christophe Lovis, Francesco Pepe, Francesco Pepe, Ansgar Reiners, Nuno C. Santos, Damien Segransan, Alessandro Sozzetti, Thorsten Carroll, Francois Bouchy, Paul Jorden, Tilo Steinmetz, Xavier Dumusque, Artie P. Hatzes, Enrique Herrero, Michael Endl, Andrew Szentgyorgyi
The Second Workshop on Extreme Precision Radial Velocities defined circa 2015 the state of the art Doppler precision and identified the critical path challenges for reaching 10 cm/s measurement precision. The presentations and discussion of key issues for

Testing of Cementitious Materials Using a Dynamic MEMS Micro Rheometer

May 17, 2016
Author(s)
Yong Sik Kim, Nicholas G. Dagalakis, Chiara C. Ferraris, Nicos Martys
Incompatibility of cementitious materials with admixtures often requires time consuming testing. Usually, several mixtures need to be prepared either using concrete or paste to determine the optimum high range water reducer dosage (HRWRA) and type. The

Anomalously low magnetic damping of a metallic ferromagnet

May 16, 2016
Author(s)
Justin M. Shaw, Martin Schoen, Danny Thonig, Michael L. Schneider, Thomas J. Silva, Hans T. Nembach, Olle Eriksson, Olof Karis
The phenomenology of magnetic damping is of critical importance to devices which seek to exploit the electronic spin degree of freedom since damping strongly affects the energy required and speed at which a device can operate. However, theory has struggled

Antenna Metrology 100-500 GHz: A New Approach

May 16, 2016
Author(s)
Perry F. Wilson, Joshua A. Gordon, David R. Novotny, Jeffrey R. Guerrieri
A typical near-field scanning range for antenna measurements is based on simple translation stages (planar) or stacked rotators (spherical), or both (cylindrical). Above 100 GHz problems arise in both specialized waveguide components, such as precision

Calibration of rheometers for cementitious materials

May 16, 2016
Author(s)
Chiara F. Ferraris, Nicos Martys, William L. George, Edward J. Garboczi, Alex Olivas
The calibration of rheometers to determine the rheological properties of cement based materials ranging from cement paste to concrete cannot be done using standard oils as they are cost prohibitive and do not possess sufficient granularity to test slip
