Author(s)
Kristal R. Verhulst, Anna Karion, Jooil Kim, Peter Salameh, Chris Sloop, Ralph Keeling, Ray Weiss, Riley Duren, John B. Miller
Concern about rising greenhouse gas levels has motivated many nations to begin mitigating emissions, motivating the need for robust, consistent, traceable greenhouse gas observation methods in complex urban domains. The Los Angeles (LA) Megacity Carbon

Photochemical Properties of CH2=CH-CFCl-CF2Br (4-bromo-3-chloro-3,4,4-trifluoro-1-butene) and CH3-O-CH-(CF3)2 (methyl 2,2,2-trifluoroethyl-1-trifluoromethyl ether): OH Reaction Rate Constant, UV and IR Absorption Spectra.

Abstract Rate constants for the reactions of hydroxyl radicals (OH) with methyl 2,2,2-trifluoroethyl-1-trifluoromethyl ether (CH3-O-CH-(CF3)2 and 4-bromo-3-chloro-3,4,4-trifluoro-1-butene (CH2=CH-CFCl-CF2Br) have been measured over the temperature range

Rapid Large-Scale Assembly and Pattern Transfer of One-Dimensional Gold Nanorod Superstructures

July 7, 2017
Author(s)
Rana NMN Ashkar, Michael J. A. Hore, Xingchen Ye, Bharath NMN Natarajan, Nicholas J. Greybush, Thomas Lam, Christopher B. Murray
The utility of gold nanorods for plasmonic applications largely depends on the relative orientation and proximity of the nanorods within a material. Through previous studies have demonstrated methods that can generate side-by-side or chain-like nanorod

Demonstration of efficient nonreciprocity in a microwave optomechanical circuit

July 6, 2017
Author(s)
Gabriel A. Peterson, Florent Q. Lecocq, Katarina Cicak, Raymond W. Simmonds, Jose A. Aumentado, John D. Teufel
Abstract The ability to engineer nonreciprocal interactions is an essential tool in modern communication technology as well as a powerful resource for building quantum networks. Aside from large reverse isolation, a nonreciprocal device suitable for

Identification of nonclassical properties of light with multiplexing layouts

Author(s)
Jan Sperling, Andreas Eckstein, W.R. Clements, Meritt Moore, Jelmer Renema, Steven Kolthammer, Sae Woo Nam, Adriana Lita, Thomas Gerrits, Ian Walmsley, G.S. Agarwal, Wolfgang Vogel
In our work, we introduce and apply a detector-independent method to uncover nonclassicality. In this contribution, we extend those techniques and give more details on the performed nalysis. We derive the general structure of the positive-operator-valued

MANUFACTURING DATA ANALYTICS USING A VIRTUAL FACTORY REPRESENTATION

July 6, 2017
Author(s)
Sanjay Jain, Guodong Shao, Seungjun Shin
Manufacturing organizations are able to accumulate large amounts of plant floor production and environmental data due to advances in data collection, communications technology, and use of standards. Data analytics can help understand and gain insights from

Phase mask-based multimodal superresolution microscopy

July 6, 2017
Author(s)
Ryan Beams, Jeremiah W. Woodcock, Jeffrey W. Gilman, Stephan J. Stranick
We demonstrate a multimodal superresolution microscopy technique based on a phase masked excitation beam in combination with spatially filtered detection. The theoretical foundation for calculating the focus from a non-paraxial beam with an arbitrary

Universal Interrelation Between Measures of Particle and Polymer Size

July 6, 2017
Author(s)
Luis F. Vargas Lara, Marc L. Mansfield, Jack F. Douglas
The characterization of many objects often involves the determination of a basic set of particle size measures derived mainly from scattering and transport property measurements. For polymers, these basic properties often include the radius of gyration Rg

Connection between thermodynamics and dynamics of simple fluids in pores: impact of fluid-fluid interaction range and fluid-solid interaction strength

July 5, 2017
Author(s)
William P. Krekelberg, Daniel W. Siderius, Vincent K. Shen, Thomas M. Truskett, Jeffrey R. Errington
Using molecular simulations, we investigate how the range of fluid-fluid (adsorbate-adsorbate) interactions and the strength of fluid-solid (adsorbate-adsorbent) interactions impact the strong connection between distinct adsorptive regimes and distinct

Higgs Amplitude Mode in a Two-Dimensional Quantum Antiferromagnet near the Quantum Critical Point0
