Ronald S. Ross, Kelley L. Dempsey, Larry Feldman, Gregory A. Witte
This bulletin summarizes the information presented in NIST SP 800-171: Protecting Controlled Unclassified Information in Nonfederal Information Systems and Organizations. The publication the protection of Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) while

The NIST IAD Data Science Research Program

October 19, 2015
Author(s)
Bonnie J. Dorr, Peter C. Fontana, Craig S. Greenberg, Mark A. Przybocki, Marion Le Bras, Cathryn A. Ploehn, Oleg Aulov, Martial Michel, Edmond J. Golden III, Wo L. Chang
We examine foundational issues in data science including current challenges, basic research questions, and expected advances, as the basis for a new Data Science Research Program and evaluation series, introduced by the Information Access Division of the

Optical-to-RF Frequency Synthesis: Application Priorities for Ultra-low Phase Noise

October 18, 2015
Author(s)
David A. Howe, Archita Hati, Craig W. Nelson, Lora L. Nugent-Glandorf
We describe operational challenges and progress of optical frequency-comb dividers (OFDs) that synthesize RF signals from the optical domain. Our priorities include: (1) ultra-low phase-noise, (2) continuous operation, and (3) broadly low Allan deviation.

Equilibrium Self-Assembly, Structure, and Dynamics of Clusters of Star-Like Micelles

October 17, 2015
Author(s)
Vivek M. Prabhu, Shrinivas Venkataraman, Yi Yan Yang, James Hedrick
Small-angle neutron scattering and static and dynamic light scattering have characterized the hierar-chical structure and dynamics of clusters of self-assembled star-like micelles formed by oligocarbonate-fluorene func-tionalized polyethylene glycol

NIST on a Chip: Realizing SI units with microfabricated alkali vapour cells

October 16, 2015
Author(s)
John E. Kitching, Elizabeth A. Donley, Svenja A. Knappe, Matthew T. Hummon, Argyrios Dellis, Jeffrey A. Sherman, Kartik A. Srinivasan, Vladimir A. Aksyuk, Qiliang Li, Daron A. Westly, Brian J. Roxworthy, Amit Lal
We describe several ways in which microfabricated alkali atom vapour cells might potentially be used to accurately realize a variety of SI units, including the second, the meter, the kelvin, the ampere and the volt, in a compact, low-cost “chip-scale”

Quantifying Trace 2,4,6-Trinitrotoluene (TNT) in Polymer Microspheres

October 16, 2015
Author(s)
Timothy M. Brewer, Robert A. Fletcher, Matthew E. Staymates
Well characterized test materials are essential for validating the performance of current trace explosive detection systems. Explosive encapsulated microspheres have proven to be a valuable test material for trace explosive detection because their precise

A Single-Pixel Touchless Laser Tracker Probe

October 15, 2015
Author(s)
Josh Gordon, David R. Novotny, Alexandra Curtin
We have developed a laser tracker probe, the Pixel Probe, that does not require physically contacting the object one is measuring and which has 3D spatial resolution of about 25 μm (in x,y,z) in the current configuration. This touchless laser tracker probe

Abiotic bromination of soil organic matter

October 15, 2015
Author(s)
Bruce D. Ravel, Alessandra C. Leri
Biogeochemical transformations of plant-derived soil organic matter (SOM) involve complex abiotic and microbially mediated reactions. One such reaction is halogenation, which occurs naturally in the soil environment and has been associated with enzymatic

Confidence Estimation in Stem Cell Classification

October 15, 2015
Author(s)
Peter Bajcsy, Jana Kosecka, Zahra Rajabi
We study the problem of supervised classification of stem cell colonies and confidence estimation of the attained classification labels. The problem is investigated in the application context of heterogeneity labels of stem cell colonies observed by using

Current and Emerging Technologies to Characterize the Higher-Order Structure of Monoclonal Antibodies

October 15, 2015
Author(s)
John Marino, Robert G. Brinson, Jane E. Ladner, David Travis Gallagher, Luke Arbogast, Richard Huang, Jeffrey W. Hudgens, Elyssia S. Gallagher
In contrast to small molecule therapeutics whose conformations can be absolutely defined by constitution and stereochemistry, biopharmaceuticals are distinguished by the requirement for folding into higher order structures (secondary, tertiary, and

Determination of the Primary Sequence/ Structure

October 15, 2015
Author(s)
Catherine A. Mouchahoir, Mellisa Ly, Michaella Levy, Lisa E. Kilpatrick, Scott C. Lute, Karen W. Phinney, Lisa Marzilli, Kurt A. Brorson, Michael T. Boyne, Darryl Davis, John E. Schiel
The primary sequence of a protein, including therapeutic monoclonal antibodies (mAbs), is a critical quality attribute that determines a great deal of its functionality and stability. Significant effort is devoted to determining the complete amino acid

Glycan Analysis of NIST mAb Reference Material

October 15, 2015
Author(s)
John E. Schiel, Catherine A. Mouchahoir
N-linked glycosylation is a common post-translational modification that imparts structural heterogeneity to recombinant monoclonal antibody therapeutics. The various oligosaccharides attached to the CH2 domains of IgG can impact the efficacy, safety and

Microstructural Origins of Cement Paste Degradation by External Sulfate Attack

October 15, 2015
Author(s)
Pan Feng, Edward Garboczi, Pan Feng, Jeffrey W. Bullard
A microstructure model has been applied to simulate near-surface degradation of portland cement paste in contact with a sodium sulfate solution. This new model uses thermodynamic equilibrium calculations to guide both compositional and microstructure

Multi-Scale Effects in the Strength of Ceramics

October 15, 2015
Author(s)
Robert F. Cook
Multiple length-scale effects are demonstrated in indentation-strength measurements of a range of ceramic materials under inert and reactive conditions. Meso-scale effects associated with flaw disruption by lateral cracking at large indentation loads are

Poster:A Logic Based Network Forensics Model for Evidence Analysis

October 15, 2015
Author(s)
Anoop Singhal, Changwei Liu, Duminda Wijesekera
Modern-day attackers tend to use sophisticated multi-stage/multi-host attack techniques and anti-forensics tools to cover their attack traces. Due to the current limitations of intrusion detection and forensic analysis tools, reconstructing attack

Probing Nanoscale Thermal Transport in Surfactant Solutions

October 15, 2015
Author(s)
Fangyu Cao, Ying Liu, Jiajun Xu, Yadong He, Boualem Hammouda, Rui Qiao, Bao Yang
Surfactant solutions typically feature tunable nanoscale, internal structures. Although rarely utilized, they can be a powerful platform for probing thermal transport in nanoscale domains and across interfaces with nanometer-size radius. Here, we examine
