Biology and Genetics of New Autosomal STR Loci Useful for Forensic DNA Analysis

August 19, 2013
Author(s)
John M. Butler, Carolyn R. Steffen
Short tandem repeats (STRs) are regions of tandemly repeated DNA segments found throughout the human genome that vary in length (through insertion, deletion, or mutation) with a core repeated DNA sequence. Forensic laboratories commonly use tetranucleotide

New Group-Contribution Approach to Thermochemical Properties of Organic Compounds: Hydrocarbons and Oxygen-Containing Compounds

August 19, 2013
Author(s)
Michael D. Frenkel, Sergey P. Verevkin, V N. Emel'yanenko, Robert D. Chirico, Vladimir Diky, Chris D. Muzny
A new group-contribution approach involving systematic corrections for 1,4-non-bonded carbon-carbon and carbon-oxygen interactions has been proposed. Limits of the applicability of the method, associated with the highly branched structures, were

Selected Procedures for Volumetric Calibrations (2013 Ed)

August 19, 2013
Author(s)
Georgia L. Harris
This publication contains Good Measurement Procedures (GMP), Good Laboratory Procedures (GLP), and Standard Operating Procedures (SOP) for use in calibration laboratories performing volumetric calibrations. This edition is updated from the 2012 version

The Cosmic Infrared Background Experiment (CIBER): the Narrow Band Spectrometer

August 19, 2013
Author(s)
Steven W. Brown, Keith R. Lykke, Allan W. Smith, P M. Korngut, T. Renbarger, T. Arai, J. Battle, A. Cooray, V. Hristov, B. Keating, M. G. Kims, A. Lanz, D. H. Lee, L. R. Levenson, P. Mason, T. Matsumoto, S. Matsuura, U. W. Niam, B. Shultz, I. Sullivan, K. Tsumura, T. Wada, M. Zemcov
We have developed a near-infrared spectrometer designed to measure the absolute intensity of the Solar 854.2 nm Ca II Fraunhofer line, scattered by interplanetary dust, in the Zodiacal light spectrum. Based on the known equivalent line width in the Solar

Effectively Control Negative Thermal Expansion of Single-phase Ferroelecrics of PbTiO 3 -(Bi,La)FeO 3 over a Giant Range

August 16, 2013
Author(s)
Jun Chen, Fangfang Wang, Qingzhen Huang, Lei Hu, Xiping Song, Jinxia Deng, Ranbo Yu, Xianran Xing
Control of negative thermal expansion is a fundamentally interesting topic in the negative thermal expansion materials in order for the future applications. However, it is a challenge to control the negative thermal expansion in individual pure materials

Space-Dependent Dynamics in 1,4-Polybutadiene Nanocomposite

August 16, 2013
Author(s)
J.H. Roh, Madhu Sudan Tyagi, T. E. Hogan, C. M. Roland
Neutron backscattering measurements were carried out on 1,4-polybutadiene, neat and bound to carbon nanoparticles. At large length scales (> 6Å), the Gaussian approximation holds: τ Β α ∝Q -2 where τ α is the segmental relaxation time, β the Kohlrausch

A Framework for Designing Cryptographic Key Management Systems

August 15, 2013
Author(s)
Elaine B. Barker, Miles Smid, Dennis Branstad, Santosh Chokhani
This Framework for Designing Cryptographic Key Management Systems (CKMS) contains topics that should be considered by a CKMS designer when developing a CKMS design specification. For each topic, there are one or more documentation requirements that need to

ACT-Touch Reference Manual, Working Draft

August 15, 2013
Author(s)
Kristen Greene, Franklin Tamborello
ACT-Touch is a set of manual motor request extensions for ACT-R 6 (Adaptive Control of Thought-Rational, hereafter, ACT-R) . These manual request extensions constitute theoretical claims predicting motor preparation and execution times for certain manual
