Methods and lessons for business resilience and recovery surveys

May 25, 2023
Author(s)
Maria Watson, Charlotte Brown, John Handmer, Cynthia Kroll, Anne Wein, Jennifer Helgeson, Adam Rose, Noah Dormady, Juri Kim
Surveys are important tools in business resilience and recovery research because of their ability to capture disaggregated economic information; however, they can be difficult and costly due to business operational dynamics and the larger challenges of

Nonlinear Sideband Cooling to a Cat State of Motion

May 25, 2023
Author(s)
Bradley Hauer, Joshua Combes, John Teufel
The ability to prepare a macroscopic mechanical resonator into a quantum superposition state is an outstanding goal of cavity optomechanics. Here, we propose a technique to generate cat states of motion using the intrinsic nonlinearity of a dispersive

Radiation Monitoring System Upgrade for the NBSR

May 25, 2023
Author(s)
James R. Whipple, Dagistan Sahin, Yehonatan Zino
The Radiation Monitoring System (RMS) at the NIST Center for Neutron Research (NCNR) Reactor (National Bureau of Standards Reactor – NBSR) has demonstrated reliability issues due to outdated hardware and lack of vendor support. The existing radiation

The design and performance of an electronic torque standard directly traceable to the revised SI

May 25, 2023
Author(s)
Zane Comden, John-Edward Draganov, Stephan Schlamminger, Frank Seifert, Charles Waduwarage Perera, David B. Newell, Leon Chao
The United States National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has been developing a new device for primary standard realization of torque utilizing established trace- ability to the quantum-electrical International System of Units (SI) standards

Automated extraction of capacitive coupling for quantum dot systems

May 24, 2023
Author(s)
Joshua Ziegler, Florian Luthi, Mick Ramsey, Felix Borjans, Guoji Zheng, Justyna Zwolak
Gate-defined quantum dots (QDs) have appealing attributes as a quantum computing platform. However, near-term devices possess a range of possible imperfections that need to be accounted for during the tuning and operation of QD devices. One such problem is

Predicting broadband resonator-waveguide coupling for microresonator frequency combs through fully connected and recurrent neural networks with and without attention mechanism

May 24, 2023
Author(s)
Ergun Simsek, Masoud Soroush, Gregory Moille, Kartik Srinivasan, Curtis Menyuk
Broadband microresonator frequency combs are being intensely pursued for deployable technologies like optical atomic clocks. Spectral features, such as the dispersion in their coupling to an access waveguide, are critical for engineering these devices for

Recommendations for Federal Vulnerability Disclosure Guidelines

May 24, 2023
Author(s)
Kim B. Schaffer, Peter Mell, Hung Trinh, Isabel Van Wyk
Receiving reports on suspected security vulnerabilities in information systems is one of the best ways for developers and services to become aware of issues. Formalizing actions to accept, assess, and manage vulnerability disclosure reports can help reduce

Determining Steel Weld Qualification and Performance for Hydrogen Pipelines: Phase I Report

May 23, 2023
Author(s)
Matthew Connolly, May Ling Martin, Zack Buck, Newell Moser, Enrico Lucon, Damian Lauria, Peter Bradley, Andrew Slifka, Robert Amaro
This report details the results of Phase I of the DOT/PHMSA sponsored work on "Determining Steel Weld Qualification and Performance for Hydrogen Pipelines". In this work, the goals of Phase I were 1) to perform a literature review of steel weld

Preparing for 6G: Developing best practices and standards for industrial measurements of low-loss dielectrics

May 23, 2023
Author(s)
Lucas Enright, Marzena Olszewska-Placha, Michael Hill, Say Phommakesone, Daisuke Kato, Charles Hill, Hanna Kahari, Chiawen Lee, Chang-Sheng Chen, Nate Orloff, Malgorzata Celuch, Urmi Ray
With growing interest in millimeter-wave (mmWave, 30 GHz – 300 GHz) technologies, researchers and manufacturers need standard reference materials and best practices for measurement validation, material acceptance, and quality assurance. Today, there is no

Neural-network decoders for measurement induced phase transitions

May 22, 2023
Author(s)
Hossein Dehghani, Ali Lavasani, Mohammad Hafezi, Michael Gullans
Open quantum systems have been shown to host a plethora of exotic dynamical phases. Measurement-induced entanglement phase transitions in monitored quantum systems are a striking example of this phenomena. However, naive realizations of such phase

User Perceptions and Experiences with Smart Home Updates

May 22, 2023
Author(s)
Susanne M. Furman, Julie Haney
Updates may be one of the few tools consumers have to mitigate security and privacy vulnerabilities in smart home devices. However, little research has been undertaken to understand users' perceptions and experiences with smart home updates. To address
