Lightweight, flexible, high-performance carbon nanotube cables by scalable flow coating*

January 21, 2016
Author(s)
Nathan D. Orloff, Francesca Mirri, Aaron M. Forster, Rana NMN Ashkar, Robert Headrick, E. A. Bengio, Christian J. Long, April Choi, Yimin Luo, Angela R. Hight Walker, Paul Butler, Kalman D. Migler, Matteo Pasquali
Coaxial cables for data transmission are ubiquitously used in telecommunications, aerospace, automotive and robotics industries. Unfortunately, the metals used to make commercial cables are heavy and stiff. These undesirable traits are particularly

A Rational Foundation for Software Metrology

January 20, 2016
Author(s)
David W. Flater, Paul E. Black, Elizabeth N. Fong, Raghu N. Kacker, Vadim Okun, Stephen S. Wood, David R. Kuhn
Much software research and practice involves ostensible measurements of software, yet little progress has been made on an SI-like metrological foundation for those measurements since the work of Gray, Hogan, et al. in 1996-2001. Given a physical object

Derived Personal Identity Verification (PIV) Credentials (DPC) Proof of Concept Research

January 20, 2016
Author(s)
Michael J. Bartock, Jeffrey A. Cichonski, Murugiah P. Souppaya, Paul Fox, Mike Miller, Ryan Holley, Karen Scarfone
This report documents proof of concept research for Derived Personal Identity Verification (PIV) Credentials. Smart card-based PIV Cards cannot be readily used with most mobile devices, such as smartphones and tablets, but Derived PIV Credentials (DPCs)

Dioctyl sodium sulfosuccinate (DOSS; CAS #577-11-7) a major component of the dispersant COREXIT is an obesogen

January 20, 2016
Author(s)
Alexis M. Temkin, Robert R. Bowers, Margaret E. Magaletta, Steven Holshouser, Adriana Maggi, Paolo Ciana, Louis J. Guillette Jr., John Bowden, John E. Baatz, Demetri D. Spyropoulos, John Kucklick
Background: Product safety testing typically involves lethal toxicity assessments, which likely miss long- term health impacts. Optimizing long-term product safety is critical for widespread chemical use. The obesity epidemic exemplifies a condition based

Engineering Near-Field SEIRA Enhancements in Plasmonic Resonators

January 20, 2016
Author(s)
Jungseok Chae, Basudev Lahiri, Andrea Centrone
Engineering of the optical resonances in plasmonic resonators arrays is achieved by virtue of the intrinsic properties to the constituent structures such as composition, size and shape and by controlling the inter-resonator interactions by virtue the array

Measurement Challenges and Metrology for Monitoring CO2 Emissions from Smokestacks – Workshop Summary

January 20, 2016
Author(s)
Aaron N. Johnson, Rodney A. Bryant, Tamae M. Wong, James R. Whetstone, Eric Harman, Woong Kang, Keith A. Gillis, Hsin-Hung Lee, Iosif I. Shinder, Liang Zhang
On April 20-21, 2015, NIST hosted a workshop that, through measurement science, enabled the owners of stationary sources (primarily the electric power industry) and their regulatory agencies (federal and state) to better characterize greenhouse gas (GHG)

The Influence of Water Activity on the Hydration Rates of Triclinic Tricalcium Silicate

January 20, 2016
Author(s)
Tandre Oey, Aditya Kumar, Gabriel Falzone, Jian Huang, Sierra Kennison, Mathieu Bauchy, Narayanan Neithalath, Jeffrey W. Bullard, Gaurav Sant
Tricalcium silicate stops hydrating at relative humidities (RH) less than 80 %. But the rate at which its hydration rate decreases as a function of the RH has not yet been elucidated. By invoking correspondence between RH and water activity (aH, unitless)

Absolute Energy Calibration of X-ray TESs with 0.04 eV Uncertainty at 6.4 keV in a Hadron-Beam Environment

January 19, 2016
Author(s)
Hideyuki Tatsuno, William B. Doriese, Douglas A. Bennett, Catalina Curceanu, Joseph W. Fowler, Johnathon D. Gard, Fredrick P. Gustafsson, Tadashi Hashimoto, Ryugo S. Hayano, James P. Hays-Wehle, Gene C. Hilton, Mihail Iliescu, Shigeru Ishimoto, Kenta Itahashi, Masashiko Iwasaki, Keisuke Kuwabara, Yue Ma, Johann Marton, Hirofumi Noda, Galen C. O'Neil, Shinji Okada, Haruhiko Outa, Carl D. Reintsema, Masaharu Sato, Daniel R. Schmidt, Hexi Shi, Ken Suzuki, Takatoshi Suzuki, Jens Uhlig, Joel N. Ullom, Eberhard Widmann, Shinya Yamada, Johann Zmeskal, Daniel S. Swetz
A performance evaluation of superconducting transition-edge sensors (TESs) in the environment of a pion beam line at a particle accelerator is presented. Averaged across the 209 functioning sensors in the array, the achieved energy resolution is 5.2 eV

SVClassify: a method to use multiple datasets to classify candidate structural variants into true positives and false positives

January 16, 2016
Author(s)
Justin M. Zook, Hemang M. Parikh, Desu Chen, Hariharan K. Iyer, Marc L. Salit, Wolfgang Losert
The human genome contains variants ranging in size from small single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) to large structural variants (SVs). While high-quality benchmark small variant calls have recently been developed by the Genome in a Bottle Consortium, no
