Abstract:It is well known that scattered X-rays significantly degrade image contrast in mammography. As a result commercially available mammography units all employ low ratio grids to reduce the effects of scatter and image contrast. However, conventional mammography grids are limited in their ability to… more

Abstract:"Accurate diagnostics for determining the mass distribution in next generation DTRA gas puff loads are essential for increasing plasma radiation source (PRS) predictability, efficiency and yield. Recently, laser induced fluorescence (LIF) has been used todiagnose the mass distribution in gas puffs.… more
Abstract:"The STUNBEAM will effectively be proven to be the world's first available "wireless Taser", using electromagnetic energy to create ion "streams" which conduct a static charge which can disrupt neuromuscular control of any human or comparable animal target,at an output of between 25,000 and 100,000… more
Abstract:This project will be devoted to the development of an illuminator technology suitable for use in underwater and on-shore imaging applications. This illuminator will be capable of generating at least 5 different wavelengths across the Short-wave IR, NearIR, Visible and Near UV Spectrum. Wavelengths… more

Abstract:We will design a CMOS ROIC optimized for high resistivity bolometer detectors operating in continuous or close to continuous bias condition. The ROIC design will be optimized for low detector input noise, low read noise, high charge handling capacity,high density, and large dynamic range and… more
Abstract:65525 The Department of Energy is responsible for cleaning up and then conducting ongoing surveillance and maintenance of 114 contaminated sites across the nation. The long-term cost associated with surveillance and maintenance of these sites is estimated to be approximately $100 million per… more
Abstract:70813 Expanding our understanding of climate change will require more accurate measurements of solar radiation. Although the frequent calibration of radiometers is essential for accurate data collection, it is not practical to send field instruments to a calibration facility. A solid state… more
Abstract:70697 The DOE¿s mission to expand our understanding of climate and climate change drives the need for improved measurement of radiation from the sun, clouds, and atmosphere. The absolute accuracy of field radiometers such as pyrgeometers and shaded pyranometers is undetermined because the… more
Abstract:We describe a radiosonde launch system that is automatic, robust, fault-tolerant, and mobile. Once loaded, for each cycle the system will automatically: 1) Determine ambient conditions, 2) power up a radiosonde, 3) tune the receiver, 4) initialize sonde communication, 5) performs pre-launch… more

There are several categories such as “By Agency”, “By Year”, “By State” etc.
Select a checkbox within a category to refine your search results.
Each of your selections is listed in the “Narrow Search Filters” bar. You can uncheck these selections to remove them.
Search for Either Criteria
When you select multiple values within a category, the results will include values that match either of the selections.
For example, selecting “2005” and “2007” in the “By Year” category will display results that include either 2005 OR 2007 in the results.
Narrowing the Search Results
You can refine your search results across categories. To narrow down your results, select multiple values across different categories. The results will only include values that match the selections across the categories.
For example, selecting “2005” in the “By Year” category and “NASA” in the “By Agency” category will only display the results that contain both “2005” AND “NASA” in the results.
