Demonstration of Near-Infrared Open-Path Absorption Spectroscopy for Water Vapor and Temperature Monitoring During Structure-to-Structure Fire Spread Experiments

February 13, 2026
Author(s)
Erin McCaughey, Monica Flores, Christopher Brown, Alexander Maranghides, J. Houston Miller, Diana Bailey
With increasing threats from wildfires in wildland urban interface (WUI) areas, novel approaches for the characterization of fire dynamics and their interactions with built structures have accelerated. Here, we demonstrate an open-path, near-infrared laser

2025 OIC Manufacturing 'Road Runner' Challenge

February 10, 2026
Author(s)
Catherine Cooksey, Michael Jacobson, Daniel Poitras, Luke Sandilands, Amy Rigatti, John Gilmore
Measurements are presented of the fabricated optical filters submitted to the Manufacturing Challenge organized in conjunction with Optica's Topical Meeting on Optical Interference Coatings, held in Tucson in May 2025. For this Ninth edition of the

Rydberg atom reception of a handheld UHF frequency-modulated two-way radio

February 10, 2026
Author(s)
Noah Schlossberger, Tate McDonald, Nikunjkumar Prajapati, Christopher Holloway
Rydberg atoms, due to their large polarizabilities and strong transition dipole moments, have been utilized as sensitive electric field sensors. While their ability to detect modulated signals has been previously demonstrated, these studies have largely

Surface-State-Driven Anomalous Hall Effect in Altermagnetic MnTe Films

February 10, 2026
Author(s)
Ling-Jie Zhou, Zhi J. Yan, Hongtao Rong, Yufei Zhao, Pu Xiao, Lok K. Lai, Zhiyuan Xi, Ke Wang, Tibendra Adhikari, Ganesh P. Tiwari, Zhong Lin, Pascal Manuel, Fabio Orlandi, Dmitry Khalyavin, Alexander Grutter, Chao-Xing Liu, Binghai Yan, Cui-Zu Chang
Altermagnets have recently emerged as a new class of magnetic materials that combine compensated magnetic order with spin-split electronic band structures. In this work, we employ molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) to grow MnTe thin films with controlled

The influence of inclination angles on thermal runaway characteristics and burning behavior of 18650 lithium-ion batteries

February 10, 2026
Author(s)
Jian Chen, Xue Liu, Haolan Chen, Qiuhong Wang, Jun Deng, Jingyu Zhou, Wai Cheong Tam, Yanni Zhang
This paper experimentally examined the thermal runaway (TR) characteristics and burning behavior of 18650 lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) with different inclination angles and states of charge (SOC). A series of experiments on TR burning of LIBs was conducted

Control of Dynamic Composites through Filler Surface Chemistry

February 6, 2026
Author(s)
Neil Dolinski, Lily Alperstein, Ran Tao, Anthony Kotula, Hojin Kim, Kyle Petersen, Elina Ghimire, Charlie Lindberg, Julia Murphy, Kexin Li, SJ Sibener, Aaron Forster, Stuart Rowan
The addition of hard fillers to polymeric networks allows for enhancement of mechanical properties, generally at the expense of extensibility. In the case of filled elastomers (such as tires), the hard particles cause damage to the underlying network when

Enhanced Detection of Acute Ischemic Stroke With Low-Field MRI

February 6, 2026
Author(s)
Annabel Sorby-Adams, Nandor Pinter, John Kirsch, Vinay Jaikumar, Olivia Nelson, Stephen Bacchi, Jennifer Guo, John Pitts, Vivien Lee, Keith Muir, Shahid Nimjee, Kathryn Keenan, Matthew Rosen, J. Eugenio Iglesias, Kevin Sheth, Joshua Goldstein, W. Taylor Kimberly

ACSIM; Simulation Model of an Air Conditioner

February 2, 2026
Author(s)
Piotr Domanski
ACSIM is a simulation program for single-stage air conditioners consisting of a compressor, finned-tube evaporators and condensers, thermostatic and electronic expansion valves, and connecting tubing. For modeling heat exchangers, ACSIM uses evaporator and

Alternative Fundamental Equation of State for Fluid Carbon Dioxide

February 2, 2026
Author(s)
Eric Lemmon, Allan Harvey, Robert Hellmann
We present a new fundamental equation of state for fluid carbon dioxide, which is an alternative to the current reference formulation published by Span and Wagner in 1996. The equation of state is formulated as the Helmholtz energy as a function of

Electrical interconnects for silicon spin qubits

February 2, 2026
Author(s)
Christopher White, Anthony Sigillito, Michael Gullans
Scalable spin qubit devices will likely require long-range qubit interconnects. We propose to create such an interconnect with a resistive topgate. The topgate is positively biased, to form a channel between the two dots; an end-to-end voltage difference

From Canaries to Sensors and AI - Monitoring Indoor Air

February 1, 2026
Author(s)
Lisa Ng, Seema Bhangar
We spend 90 % of our lives indoors [1], inhaling more air (by mass) than we consume water! In contrast to outdoor air pollution levels, which are regulated, existing standards for the control of indoor air pollutants consist largely of prescriptive design

Development and Application of CONTAM APIs

January 30, 2026
Author(s)
William Dols, Jialei Shen, Brian Polidoro, David Lorenzetti, Russell Mills, William Cole, Michael Sohn
A set of application programming interfaces (APIs) has been developed for the whole-building contaminant transport and airflow modeling software program, CONTAM. These APIs allow other simulation tools and programming environments to dynamically link to

Patterns and gaps in co-benefit reporting in global adaptation research

January 30, 2026
Author(s)
Christina Gore, Caitlin Grady, Rithika Dulam, Dhanyasri Bolla, Anna Liu, Jennifer Helgeson
Adaptations to extreme weather events are increasing in prevalence across the globe. Adaptation actions can produce co-benefits, which are ancillary positive outcomes beyond the primary objectives of reducing risk and enhancing resilience. Despite growing

Bridging the Gap between Standards on Random Number Generation: Comparison of SP 800-90 Series and AIS 20/31

January 29, 2026
Author(s)
Elaine Barker, John Kelsey, Kerry McKay, Johannes Mittmann, Matthias Peter, Werner Schindler, Meltem Sonmez Turan
This report studies the cryptographic random number generation standards and guidelines written by BSI and NIST, namely AIS 20/31 and SP 800-90 Series. The aim of this report is to compare these publications, focusing on the similarities and differences of

DATA REQUIREMENTS FOR A DIGITAL TWIN OF A CNC MACHINE TOOL

January 29, 2026
