Framework for Improving Critical Infrastructure Cybersecurity Version 1.1

April 16, 2018
Author(s)
Matthew P. Barrett
This publication describes a voluntary risk management framework ("the Framework") that consists of standards, guidelines, and best practices to manage cybersecurity-related risk. The Framework's prioritized, flexible, and cost-effective approach helps to

Refined Calculations of Synchrotron Radiation for NISTs SURF III Facility

April 16, 2018
Author(s)
Eric L. Shirley, Mitchell L. Furst, Uwe Arp
We have developed a new method for exact calculation of synchrotron radiation for the National Institute of Standards and Technology Synchrotron Ultraviolet Radiation Facility, SURF III. Instead of using the Schwinger formula, which is only an

Candidates to Replace R-12 as a Radiating Gas in Cherenkov Detectors

April 14, 2018
Author(s)
Allan H. Harvey, Yauheni Paulechka, Patrick F. Egan
Dichlorodifluoromethane (R-12) has been used as a radiating gas in pressure threshold Cherenkov detectors for high-energy particle physics. However, that ozone-depleting compound is becoming unavailable due to the Montreal Protocol. To find a replacement

Waveguide coupling via magnetic gratings with effective strips

April 14, 2018
Author(s)
Kevin Roccapriore, David Lyvers, Dean Brown, Ekaterina Poutrina, Augustine Urbas, Thomas Germer, Vladimir Drachev
Gratings with complex multilayer strips are studied under inclined incident light. Great interest in these gratings is due to applications as input/output tools for waveguides and as subwavelength metafilms. The structured strips introduce anisotropy in

Combinatorial Security Testing Course

April 11, 2018
Author(s)
Dimitris Simos, Yu Lei, D. Richard Kuhn, Raghu N. Kacker
Combinatorial methods have attracted attention as a means of providing strong assurance at reduced cost, but when are these methods practical and cost-effective? This tutorial comprises two parts. The first introductory part will briefly explain the back-

Experimentally Generated Random Numbers Certified by the Impossibility of Superluminal Signaling

April 11, 2018
Author(s)
Peter L. Bierhorst, Emanuel H. Knill, Scott C. Glancy, Yanbao Zhang, Alan Mink, Stephen P. Jordan, Andrea Rommal, Yi-Kai Liu, Bradley Christensen, Sae Woo Nam, Martin J. Stevens, Lynden K. Shalm
From dice to modern complex circuits, there have been many attempts to build increasingly better devices to generate random numbers. Today, randomness is fundamental to security and cryptographic systems, as well as safeguarding privacy. A key challenge

Instrumented impact testing of miniaturized Charpy specimens of AM Ti-6Al-4V

April 11, 2018
Author(s)
Enrico Lucon, Nikolas W. Hrabe
An investigation on the impact toughness properties of wrought and additively-manufactured (AM) Ti 6Al 4V was conducted at NIST Boulder, by means of instrumented impact tests on miniaturized Charpy specimens. Full transition curves for absorbed energy and

Low-GWP Refrigerants; Options and Issues

April 11, 2018
Author(s)
Piotr A. Domanski, Riccardo Brignoli, J S. Brown, Andrei F. Kazakov, Mark O. McLinden
This research explored the possibilities for refrigerants having low global warming potential (GWP) with a particular focus on high-pressure applications. The search for suitable refrigerants relied on screening of a comprehensive database using filters of

Photonic chip for laser stabilization to an atomic vapor at a precision of $10^{-11}$

April 11, 2018
Author(s)
Matthew T. Hummon, Songbai Kang, Douglas G. Bopp, Qing Li, Daron A. Westly, Sangsik Kim, Connor D. Fredrick, Scott A. Diddams, Kartik A. Srinivasan, John E. Kitching
We perform precision spectroscopy of rubidium confined in a micro-machined, 27~mm$^3$ volume, vapor cell using a collimated free space 120~$\bm{\mu}$m diameter laser beam derived directly from a single mode silicon nitride waveguide. With this optical

Cholesterol Functionalized Aliphatic N-Substituted 8 Membered Cyclic Carbonate

April 10, 2018
Author(s)
Vivek M. Prabhu, Shrinivas Venkataraman, Kenneth Mineart, James Hedrick, Yi Yan Yang
Straightforward synthesis of cholesterol functionalized aliphatic N-substituted 8 membered cyclic carbonate monomer is reported. Well-defined PEGylated diblock copolymers were readily accessed via organo catalytic ring opening polymerization. These block
