Perched atop a high plateau in Chile’s Atacama Desert, a long-awaited observatory is beginning to take shape: the largest suite of ground-based telescopes
The natural, or resonance, frequency at which a simple harmonic oscillator vibrates reveals with exquisite sensitivity the essential properties of the physical
Overview Capture of carbon dioxide from the air (direct air capture; DAC) combined with energy efficiency and carbon capture, utilization and storage (CCUS)
Conventional techniques for analyzing chemical composition, such as infrared (IR) microscopy often miss critically important nanoscale details. To overcome this
Part quality in additive manufacturing (AM) is highly variable due to inadequate dimensional tolerances, surface roughness, and defects, thereby limiting its
To provide the necessary information for electronic material manufacturers to predict how and when failures will occur and enable lifetime analysis appropriate
Additive manufacturing, or 3D printing, is quickly becoming a widespread manufacturing method offering timely and cost-effective build times for unique part
Thermal expansion sometimes dominates uncertainty in a precision measurement. A cell-based refractometer has been designed at NIST which targets 10^-6 relative
