The probabilistic distribution of dissolution rate constants for cubic tricalcium aluminate (C3A) in water was quantified based on in-situ measurements of the changes in the nanoscale surface topography using reflection digital holographic microscopy. Measurements were performed on polished sintered pellets of C3A from two sources. C3A#1 consists of 94.2 % crystalline C3A-c, 2.0 % free CaO, and 3.8 % amorphous content. C3A#2 consists of 84.3 % crystalline C3A-c, 1.0 % free CaO, 4.6 % mayenite, and 10.1 % amorphous content.

Random numbers are an important resource for applications such as numerical simulation and secure communication. However, it is difficult to certify whether a physical random number generator is truly unpredictable. Here, we exploit the phenomenon of quantum nonlocality in a loophole-free photonic Bell test experiment for the generation of randomness that cannot be predicted within any physical theory that allows one to make independent measurement choices and prohibits superluminal signaling.

The mode structure fully describes a light field and contains the information about the source of light without a direct access to the source. Here we offer the tool to extract this information from the measured photon number resolved (PNR) distribution. We present a software package aimed at simulating photon-number probability distributions of a range of naturally occurring classical and non-classical states of light. This software can generate arbitrary probability distributions based on the known mode structure of a light field. It also can solve the reverse problem, i.e.

The American Community Survey (ACS) is an ongoing survey that provides data every year -- giving communities the current information they need to plan investments and services. The ACS covers a broad range of topics about social, economic, demographic, and housing characteristics of the U.S. population. Summary files include the following geographies: nation, all states (including DC and Puerto Rico), all metropolitan areas, all congressional districts (114th congress), all counties, all places, and all tracts and block groups.

We have developed a utility to both stitch cube maps into other types of texture maps (equirectangular, dual paraboloid, and octahedral), and stitch those other types back into cube maps. The utility allows for flexibility in the image size of the conversion - the user can specify the desired image width, and the height is computed (cube, paraboloid, and octahedral mappings are square, and spherical maps are generated to have 16:9 aspect ratio).

The Economic Census is the U.S. Government's official five-year measure of American business and the economy. It is conducted by the U.S. Census Bureau, and response is required by law. In October through December 2012, forms were sent out to nearly 4 million businesses, including large, medium and small companies representing all U.S. locations and industries. Respondents were asked to provide a range of operational and performance data for their companies.

The Census data API provides access to the most comprehensive set of data on current month and cumulative year-to-date exports using the Hi-Tech classification system. The Hi-Tech endpoint in the Census data API also provides value, shipping weight, and method of transportation totals at the district level for all U.S. trading partners. The Census data API will help users research new markets for their products, establish pricing structures for potential export markets, and conduct economic planning. If you have any questions regarding U.S.
