NIST Research measures stress in new materials.
2015-11-20 14:31:08| Industrial Newsroom - All News for Today
Utilizing special X-ray machine at Argonne National Laboratory, team of scientists has taken a major step toward measuring stress in cutting-edge materials. Their work provides the first method for measuring all varied pushing, pulling, and twisting at tiny scales within a solid object. Approach has allowed them to measure "tensor," or full set of stresses, in cubic sections just 250 nm per side—the level of resolution scientists need to predict material’s performance.

NIST calibrates quartz crystals for fusion device.
2015-11-17 14:31:11| Industrial Newsroom - All News for Today
Sandia National Laboratories’ Z Pulsed Power Facility, or "Z machine," a nuclear fusion research device located in Albuquerque, NM, is the most powerful x-ray generator in the world. In a collaboration among PML’s Radiation Physics Division, Artep Inc., and Sandia National Laboratories, set of 18 bent quartz crystals had their energy and sensitivity responses calibrated at NIST’s campus in MD. Curved crystals extend energy range of x rays that can be measured when emitted by Sandia’s Z machine.

NIST seeks comments on information access control guidance.
2015-11-16 14:31:13| Industrial Newsroom - All News for Today
As part of its efforts to provide practical solutions to real-world cybersecurity challenges, National Cybersecurity Center of Excellence is requesting comments on a draft guidance to help organizations better control who has access to their information systems. Draft practice guide outlines potential security risks, benefits that may result from implementation of an attribute based access control system, and approach that NCCoE and its partners took using commercially available technologies.
