VM Leakage and Orphan Control in Open-Source Clouds

November 29, 2011
Author(s)
Christopher E. Dabrowski, Kevin L. Mills
Computer systems often exhibit degraded performance due to resource leakage caused by erroneous programming or malicious attacks, and computers can even crash in extreme cases of resource exhaustion. The advent of cloud computing provides increased

Cold-collision-shift cancelation and inelastic scattering in a Yb optical lattice clock

November 28, 2011
Author(s)
Andrew D. Ludlow, Nathan D. Lemke, Jeffrey A. Sherman, Christopher W. Oates, G. Quemener, J. von Stecher, A.M. Rey
Recently, ρ-wave cold collisions were shown to dominate the density-dependent shift of the clock transition frequency in a 171Yb optical lattice clock. Here we demonstrate that by operating such a system at the proper excitation fraction, the cold

Mechanical Properties of Polymer Nano-Films

November 28, 2011
Author(s)
Junghyun Lee, Jun Y. Chung, Christopher Stafford
Three fundamental mechanical properties of supported glassy polystyrene films with thickness ranging from 250 nm to 9 nm were quantitatively determined by a recently developed wrinkling-cracking method. Films below about 40 nm showed a decrease in both

NIST Handbook 150-31, NVLAP Healthcare Information Technology Testing

November 28, 2011
Author(s)
Dana S. Leaman, Lawrence I. Knab
NIST Handbook 150-31 presents the technical requirements and guidance for the accreditation of laboratories under the National Voluntary Laboratory Accreditation Program (NVLAP) Healthcare Information Technology Testing program. It is intended for

Recommendation for Key Derivation through Extraction-then-Expansion

November 28, 2011
Author(s)
Lidong Chen
This Recommendation specifies techniques for the derivation of keying material from a shared secret established during a key establishment scheme defined in NIST Special Publications 800-56A or 800-56B through an extraction-then-expansion procedure.

Viewpoint: Topological Invariants Made Manifest

November 28, 2011
Author(s)
Ian B. Spielman, Gediminas Juzeliunas
Topological order in some single particle cold atom systems can now be measured directly, instead of relying on proxies such as the quantized Hall conductance as is usually the case in conventional materials. This new measurement technique complements the

Towards realization of a large-area, LED-based solar simulator

November 27, 2011
Author(s)
Behrang H. Hamadani, Kangbin Chua, John F. Roller, Howard W. Yoon, Brian P. Dougherty
LED-based solar simulators have shown great promise as alternative light sources for indoor testing of PV cells as compared to their traditional counterparts. However, large-area uniform illumination more suitable for larger cells and module measurements

EVALUATION OF A MICROWAVE-ASSISTED METAL-LABELING STRATEGY FOR QUANTIFICATION OF PEPTIDES VIA RPLC-ICP-MS AND THE METHOD OF STANDARD ADDITIONS

November 26, 2011
Author(s)
Steven J. Christopher, Eric L. Kilpatrick, Lee L. Yu, William C. Davis, blakely adair
NIST has performed preliminary research on applying a calibration methodology based on the method of standard additions to the quantification of lanthanide-labeled peptides via reverse-phase liquid chromatography coupled to inductively coupled plasma mass

Performance Evaluation Experiments on a Laser Spot Triangulation Probe

November 25, 2011
Author(s)
Balasubramanian Muralikrishnan, Wei Ren, Dennis S. Everett, Eric S. Stanfield, Theodore D. Doiron
Laser triangulation probes are increasingly used for dimensional measurements in a variety of applications. At the National Institute of Standards and Technology, we have recently explored the use of laser spot triangulation probes to determine dimensional

Quantum simulation of the hexagonal Kitaev model with trapped ions

November 25, 2011
Author(s)
Dietrich G. Leibfried, Roman Schmied , Janus H. Wesenberg
We present a detailed study of quantum simulations of coupled spin systems in surface-electrode ion-trap arrays, and illustrate our findings with a proposed implementation of the hexagonal Kitaev model [A. Kitaev, Annals of Physics 321,2 (2006)]. The e
