Peer-to-Peer Urban Channel Characteristics for Two Public-Safety Frequency Bands

October 1, 2015
Author(s)
Catherine A. Remley, David W. Matolak, Camillo A. Gentile, Christopher L. Holloway, Qiong Wu, Qian Zhang
We report on ground-based wireless channel characteristics for an urban environment in two public safety bands. Results are based upon measurements taken in Denver in June 2009. The public safety bands we investigated are the 700 MHz and 4.9 GHz bands

Research highlights: Probing adsorbed organic coatings on nanoparticle surfaces

October 1, 2015
Author(s)
Stacey M. Louie, John M. Pettibone
Organic coatings adsorbed at a nanoparticle surface, together with the system properties, change the physicochemical properties of the nanoparticle, thereby possibly modifying its behavior and interactions with its surroundings. A detailed understanding of

Self-powered p-NiO/n-ZnO heterojunction ultraviolet photodetectors fabricated on plastic substrates

Ratan K. Debnath, MD R. Hasan, Ting Xie, Sara C. Barron, Guannan Liu, Nhan V. Nguyen, Abhishek Motayed, M V. Rao
A self-powered ultraviolet (UV) photodetector (PD) based on p-NiO and n-ZnO was fabricated using low-temperature sputtering technique on indium doped tin oxide (ITO) coated plastic polyethylene terephthalate (PET) substrates. The fabricated devices showed

Spreading alerts quietly and the subgroup escape problem

J. Aspnes, Z. Diamadi, A. Yampolskiy, K. Gjosteen, Rene Peralta
We introduce a new cryptographic primitive called a blind coupon mechanism (BCM). In effect, a BCM is an authenticated bit commitment scheme, which is AND-homomorphic. We show that a BCM has natural and important applications. In particular, we use it to

Timekeeping in the Americas

October 1, 2015
Author(s)
Michael A. Lombardi, Jose M. Lopez
Time and its measurement belong to the most fundamental core of physics, and many scientific and technological advances are directly or indirectly related to time measurements. Timekeeping is essential to everyday life, and thus is the most measured

Greenhouse Gas Emissions and Dispersion 3. Reducing Uncertainty in Estimating Source Strength and Location through Plume Inversion Models

September 30, 2015
Author(s)
Kuldeep R. Prasad, Adam L. Pintar, Heming Hu, Israel Lopez Coto, Dennis T. Ngo, James R. Whetstone
Recent development of accurate instruments for measuring greenhouse gas concentrations and the ability to mount them in ground based vehicles has provided an opportunity to make temporally and spatially resolved measurements in the vicinity of suspected

On the Behavior of PRES Using Incomplete Judgment Sets

September 30, 2015
Author(s)
Ellen M. Voorhees
PRES, the Patent Retrieval Evaluation Score, is a family of retrieval system evaluation measures that combines recall and user effort to better reflect the quality of a retrieval run with respect to recall-oriented search tasks. Previous analysis of the

Standardizing 25-Hydroxyvitamin D values from the Canadian Health Measures Survey

Kurtis Sarafin, Ramon Durazo-Arvizu, Lu Tian, Karen W. Phinney, Susan Tai, Johanna Camara, Hubert W. Vesper, Joyce M. Merkel, Evan Green, Christopher T. Sempos, Stephen P. Brooks
Background: The Canadian Health Measures survey (CHMS) is an ongoing cross sectional national survey that includes a measure of 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH)D) by Diasorin LIAISON immunoassay. The survey repeats approximately every two years with a new

Thermodynamic Properties of 1,1,1,2,2,4,5,5,5-nonafluoro-4-(trifluoromethyl)-3-pentanone: Vapor Pressure, (p, ?, T) Behavior, and Speed of Sound Measurements, and Equation of State

Mark O. McLinden, Richard A. Perkins, Eric W. Lemmon, Tara J. Fortin
We report comprehensive thermodynamic property measurements of 1,1,1,2,2,4,5,5,5-nonafluoro-4-(trifluoromethyl)-3-pentanone. The p–ρ–T behavior was measured from T = (225 to 470) K with pressures up to 36 MPa using a two-sinker densimeter. These
