Parallel Device-Independent Quantum Key Distribution

April 9, 2020
Author(s)
Rahul Jain, Carl Miller, Yaoyun Shi
A prominent application of quantum cryptography is the distribution of cryptographic keys that are provably secure. Such security proofs were extended by Vazirani and Vidick (Physical Review Letters, 113, 140501, 2014) to the device-independent (DI)

Low-Energy Magnons in the Chiral Ferrimagnet Cu 2 OSeO 3 : A Coarse-Grained Approach

Author(s)
Yi Luo, G. G. Marcus, Benjamin Trump, J. Kindervater, M. B. Stone, Jose Rodriguez Rivera, Yiming Qiu, T. M. McQueen, O. Tchernyshyov, Collin L. Broholm
We report a comprehensive neutron scattering study of low energy magnetic excitations in the breathing pyrochlore helimagnetic Cu 2OSeO 3. Fully documenting the four lowest energy magnetic modes that leave the ferrimagnetic configuration of the "strong

Mass Spectral Library of Acylcarnitines Derived from Human Urine

April 8, 2020
Author(s)
Xinjian Yan, Sanford Markey, Ramesh Marupaka, Qian Dong, Brian T. Cooper, Yuri Mirokhin, William E. Wallace, Stephen Stein
We describe the creation of a mass spectral library of acylcarnitines and conjugated acylcarnitines from the LC–MS/MS analysis of six NIST urine reference materials. To recognize acylcarnitines, we conducted in-depth analyses of fragmentation patterns of

Simulation Testbed for Railway Infrastructure Security and Resilience Evaluation

April 8, 2020
Author(s)
Bradley Potteiger, Himanshu Neema, Xenofon Koutsoukos, CheeYee Tang, Keith A. Stouffer
The last decade has seen an influx of digital connectivity, operation automation, and remote sensing and control mechanisms in the railway domain. The management of the railway operations through the use of distributed sensors and controllers and with

Spatial Distribution of PEO-PPO-PEO Block copolymer and PEO Homopolymer in Lipid Bilayers

April 7, 2020

Mihee Kim, Frank Heinrich, Greg Haugstad, Guichuan Yu, Guangcui Yuan, Sushil K. Satija, Wenjia Zhang, Hannah S. Seo, Joseph M. Metzger, Samira M. Azarin, Timothy P Lodge, Benjamin J. Hackel, Frank S. Bates
Maintaining the integrity of cell membranes is indispensable for cellular viability. Poloxamer 188 (P188), a poly(ethylene oxide)-b-poly(propylene oxide)-b-poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO-PPO-PEO) triblock copolymer with a number average molecular weight of 8

228Th breakthrough in 224Ra samples: what can we know and when can we know it?

April 6, 2020
Author(s)
Denis E. Bergeron, Ryan P. Fitzgerald, Leticia S. Pibida
Recent renewed interest in radium-224 (224Ra) as a radiotherapeutic agent prompted the development of a primary standard for activity at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). The 224Ra decay chain includes the emission four alpha

Comparable Enhancement of TERS signals from WeSe2 on Chromium and Gold.

April 6, 2020
Author(s)
Albert Davydov, Sergiy Krylyuk, Angela R. Hight Walker, Bojan R. Ilic, Andrey Krayev, Ashish Bhattarai, Alan G. Joly, Matej Velicky, Patrick Z. El-Khoury
Plasmonic tip-sample junctions, at which the incident and scattered optical fields are localized and optimally enhanced, are often exploited to achieve ultrasensitive and highly spatially localized tip-enhanced Raman scattering (TERS). Recent work has

Highland games: A benchmarking exercise in predicting biophysical and drug properties of monoclonal antibodies from amino acid sequences

April 6, 2020
Author(s)
John E. Schiel, Coffman Jon, Bruno Marques, Griesbach Jan, Ambrose Williams, Gisela Ferreira, Rushd Khalaf, David Roush, Charles Haynes
Biopharmaceutical product and process development does not yet take advantage of predictive computational modeling to nearly the degree seen in industries based on smaller molecules. To assess and advance progress in this area, spirited coopetition was

Inter-Kramers Transitions and Spin-Phonon Couplings in a Lanthanide-Based Single-Molecule Magnet

April 6, 2020
Author(s)
Duncan H. Moseley, Shelby E. Stavretis, Zhenhua Zhu, Mei Guo, Craig Brown, Mykhaylo Ozerov, Yongqiang Cheng, Luke L. Daemen, Rachael Richardson, Gary Knight, Komalavalli Thirunavukkuarasu, Anibal J. Ramirez-Cuesta, Jinkui Tang, Zi-Ling Xue
Spin-phonon coupling plays a critical role in magnetic relaxation in single-molecule magnets (SMMs) and molecular qubits. Yet, few studies of its nature have been conducted. Phonons here refer to both intermolecular and intramolecular vibrations. In the

Analysis of a Slug Calorimeter with a Curie Point

April 3, 2020
Author(s)
Jiann C. Yang, Thomas J. Ohlemiller
A lump-capacitance heat transfer model was developed to model the operation of a slug calorimeter constructed of metal with a Curie point. The resulting formula has been successfully used to infer total heat flux to a metal structural member in a fire by

Improving 3D Vision-Robot Registration for Assembly Tasks

April 3, 2020
Author(s)
Marek Franaszek, Geraldine S. Cheok, Karl Van Wyk, Jeremy A. Marvel
Quality registration between the coordinate frames of a perception system and a robot is important for the efficient operation of autonomous systems in vision-guided assembly lines. Rigid-body registration, which is based on the measurement of

Strategic Roadmap for Interoperable Public Safety Video Analytics

April 3, 2020
Author(s)
Diane E. Ridgeway
Since 9/11, the Department of Homeland Security has provided over $16 billion dollars in grant assistance to secure cities and non-profit organizations against terrorist and disaster incidents. In order to meet the threat demands, public safety
