Junwon Ko, Gisele Bortolaz Guedes, Fazleena Badurdeen, I.S. Jawahir, KC Morris, Vincenzo Ferrero, Buddhika Hapuwatte, Ryan Bradley, Ardeshir Mashhadi
The Circular Economy (CE) has been proposed as a strategy to promote the efficient use of resources, maximizing the benefits derived from materials and products through value recovery strategies, and minimizing waste generation. However, ambiguity remains

Advancing Methodologies for Hurricane Disaster Research Using Social Media Data

May 29, 2024
Author(s)
Emina Herovic, Caerwyn Hartten, Emily Walpole, Katherine Johnson, Cameron Busser
The National Institute of Standards and Technology's (NIST) investigations of disasters and failures that affect the United States including devastating hurricanes like Hurricane Maria (NIST, 2023), require the assessment of risk communication, especially

Identification of Candidate Protein Biomarkers Associated with Domoic Acid Toxicosis in Cerebrospinal Fluid of California Sea Lions (Zalophus californianus)

May 28, 2024
Author(s)
Gautam Ghosh, Ben Neely, Alison Bland, Emily Whitmer, Cara Field, Padraig Duignan, Michael Janech
Since 1998, California sea lion (Zalophus californianus) stranding events associated with domoic acid toxicosis have consistently increased. Currently there are no practical non-lethal clinical tests for the diagnosis of domoic acid toxicosis (DAT) that

Optical n(p, T_90) measurement suite 2: H_2O and D_2O

May 28, 2024
Author(s)
Patrick Egan, Yuanchao Yang
A suite of measurements of refractive index n(p, T_90) is reported for gas phase ordinary water H_2O and heavy water D_2O. The methodology is optical refractive index gas metrology, operating at laser wavelength 633 nm and covering the range (293 T_90 43

Fiber-coupled 2 mL vacuum-gap Fabry-Perot reference cavity for laser stabilization

May 25, 2024
Author(s)
Charles McLemore, Naijun Jin, Megan Kelleher, Yizhi Luo, Dahyeon Lee, Yifan Liu, Takuma Nakamura, David Mason, Peter Rakich, Scott Diddams, Franklyn Quinlan
Vacuum-gap Fabry-Perot cavities are indispensable tools for vastly improving the frequency stability of lasers, with applications across a diverse range of scientific and industrial pursuits. However, making these cavity-based laser stabilization systems

Letter to the editor: Unit one is intrusive

May 24, 2024
Author(s)
David W. Flater
The SI brochure's treatment of quantities that it regards as dimensionless, with the associated unit one, requires certain physical quantities to be regarded as simply numbers. The resulting formal system erases the nature of these quantities and excludes

Dual-comb correlation spectroscopy of thermal light

May 23, 2024
Author(s)
Eugene Tsao, Alexander Lind, Connor Fredrick, Ryan Cole, Peter Chang, Kristina Chang, Dahyeon Lee, Matthew Heyrich, Nazanin Hoghooghi, Franklyn Quinlan, Scott Diddams
The detection of light of thermal origin is the principal means by which humanity has learned about our world and the cosmos. In optical astronomy, in particular, direct detection of thermal photons and the resolution of their spectra have enabled
