Technical Study of the Sofa Super Store Fire- South Carolina, June 18, 2007 Volume I ***DRAFT FOR PUBLIC COMMENT*** (for final version, see NIST SP 1118, March 2011)

October 28, 2010
Author(s)
Nelson P. Bryner, Anthony D. Putorti Jr., Stephen P. Fuss, Bryan W. Klein
A fire occurred on the evening of June 18, 2007, in the Sofa Super Store in Charleston, SC. NIST analyzed the fire ground, consulted with other experts, and performed computer simulations of fire growth alternatives. Based on these analyses, the following

Towards More Accurate Atomic Oscillator Strengths

October 28, 2010
Author(s)
Wolfgang L. Wiese, Jeffrey R. Fuhr, John M. Bridges
Accurate determinations of atomic oscillator strengths have been a problem for a long time, and discrepancies between various numerical results have been substantial. But in recent years considerable progress has been made, especially for weak lines

SIM time scales

October 27, 2010
Author(s)
Michael A. Lombardi, J. Mauricio Lopez-Romero, Nelida Diaz-Munoz
This paper presents an analysis of the performance of some of the time scales generated in the Sistema Interamericano de Metrologia (SIM) region. We emphasize the generation of the first international time scale in near real time, the SIM Time scale (SIMT)

Intrinsic defects in perpendicularly magnetized multilayer thin films and nanostructures

October 26, 2010
Author(s)
Justin M. Shaw, Miles Olsen, June W. Lau, Michael L. Schneider, Thomas J. Silva, Olav Hellwig, Elizabeth Dobisz, Bruce D. Terris
Intrinsic magnetic defects in perpendicularly magnetized nanostructures reduce the predictability of device and developing recording technologies. In addition to a distribution of local anisotropy fields, we show that such defects also exhibit variations

Scaling studies with the dual crystal spectrometer at the OMEGA-EP laser facility

October 26, 2010
Author(s)
Lawrence T. Hudson, C.I Szabo, J. Workman, K. Flippo, Uri Feldman, Albert Henins
The dual crystal spectrometer (DCS) is an approved diagnostic at the OMEGA and the OMEGA-EP laser facilities for the measurement of high energy x-rays in the 11 90 keV energy range, e.g., for verification of the x-ray spectrum of backlighter targets of

An IEEE 1588 Time Synchronization Testbed for Assessing Power Distribution Requirements

October 25, 2010
Author(s)
Julien M. Amelot, Clement Vasseur, Jeffrey Fletcher, Dhananjay Anand, Ya-Shian Li-Baboud, James Moyne
Wide-area monitoring applications for power distribution rely on accurate global time synchronization. Furthermore, there is interest in replacing current time synchronization methods such as IRIG, with distributed time synchronization protocols that

Assessing Library Performance Using the Baldrige Criteria for Performance Excellence: Framework and Systems that Focus on Results and Ensure Sustainability

October 25, 2010
Author(s)
Susan L. Makar, Mary D. Coraggio, Mylene S. Ouimette, Barbara P. Silcox
Successful management of organizational performance requires interconnected systems that link goals and strategies with customer and stakeholder requirements, key processes, and measures. This systems-oriented approach ensures consistency across plans
