Standard Reference Material-1721: Southern Oceanic Air. Ambient Nominal Amount of Substance Fraction for Carbon Dioxide, Methane & Nitrous Oxide. This Standard Reference Material (SRM) is a primary gas mixture for which the amount-of-substance fraction, expressed as concentration, may be related to secondary working standards. This SRM is intended for the calibration of instruments used for ambient carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4) and nitrous oxide (N2O) determinations and for other applications. This data is public in the Certificate of Analysis for this material.

This Standard Reference Material (SRM) is intended for use as an analytical standard of known purity. It is intended primarily for use in the calibration and standardization of procedures for potassium (K) and chloride (Cl-) determinations employed in clinical analysis, including those using ion-selective electrodes, and for routine critical evaluation of the daily working standards used in these procedures. This lot of potassium chloride (KCl) was prepared to ensure a material of high purity and homogeneity and has been assayed after heating at 110 degrees C to 120 degrees C.

All the data in this project are generated running Density Functional (DFT) simulation either on NIST computer clusters of through our collaborators at University of Florida. The final data consist in relaxed atomic structures and corresponding energetic, mechanical, electronic and phonon properties. The metadata consist in the initial and relaxed structures, the description of the code, of the k points and of all the parameters used in running the simulations (energy or real space cutoff, type of minimization, occupation, etc.).

Using a modified Thomas-Fermi approximation, we model a reference semiconductor system comprising a quasi-1D nanowire with a series of five depletion gates whose voltages determine the number of quantum dots (QDs), the charges on each of the QDs, as well as the conductance through the wire. The original dataset, QFlow lite, consists of 1 001 idealized simulated measurements with gate configurations sampling over different realizations of the same type of device.

There is often a large amount of maintenance data already available for use in Smart Manufacturing systems, but in a currently-unusable form: service tickets and maintenance work orders (MWOs). Nestor is a toolkit for using Natural Language Processing (NLP) with efficient user-interaction to perform structured data extraction with minimal annotation time-cost.

The Micronutrients Measurement Quality Assurance Program (MMQAP) was coordinated by the Chemical Sciences Division and supported measurement technology for selected fat- and water-soluble vitamins and carotenoids in human serum. This program was initiated in 1984 by the National Cancer Institute Division of Cancer Prevention and Control to ensure the long-term reliability of the measurements made while studying the possible cancer chemoprevention roles of these compounds.

The Manufacturing Cost Guide is a tool that estimates the costs that US manufacturers face and can be used to help gauge the potential returns on manufacturing industry research projects through cost reductions. These costs are grouped into various standardized categories such as the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) and the Standard Occupational Classification (SOC) system along with other non-standardized costs.

The tool can be used to answer questions such as:

The REsource for Materials Informatics (REMI) will host a diverse collection of scripting notebooks (Jupyter, Matlab LiveScripts, etc.) for collecting, pre-processing, analyzing, and visualizing materials data. Notebooks are curated using tags aligned to Materials Science and Data Science topics. REMI emerged from the realization that both experts and novices wanted examples of using machine learning for science. Meanwhile, lots of experts are developing digital notebooks (e.g. Jupyter) to demonstrate step-by-step data collection, pre-processing, analysis and visualization.

Atomic Bose-Einstein condensates (BECs) are widely investigated systems that exhibit quantum phenomena on a macroscopic scale. For example, they can be manipulated to contain solitonic excitations including conventional solitons, vortices, and many more. Broadly speaking, solitonic excitations are solitary waves that retain their size and shape and often propagate at a constant speed. They are present in many systems, at scales ranging from microscopic, to terrestrial and even astronomical.

This MEMS Calculator determines the following thin film properties from data taken with an optical interferometer or comparable instrument: a) residual strain from fixed-fixed beams, b) strain gradient from cantilevers, c) step heights or thicknesses from step-height test structures, and d) in-plane lengths or deflections. Then, residual stress and stress gradient calculations can be made after an optical vibrometer or comparable instrument is used to obtain Young's modulus from resonating cantilevers or fixed-fixed beams.
