Compact x-ray source based on burst-mode inverse Compton scattering at 100 kHz by Bessuille, J., Brown, P., Carbajo, S., Dolgashev, Valery A., Lin, H., Murari, K., Resta, G., Tantawi, S., Zapata, L. E., Graves, William S., Hong, Kyung-Han, Ihloff, Ernest E., Khaykovich, Boris, Nanni, Emilio Alessandro, Kaertner, Franz X., Moncton, David E.

“…At a photon energy of 12.4 keV, the predicted x-ray flux is 5×10[superscript 11]  photons/second in a 5% bandwidth and the brilliance is 2 × 10[superscript 12]  photons/(sec mm[superscript 2] mrad[superscript 2]  0.1%) in pulses with rms pulse length of 490 fs. The nominal electron beam parameters are 18 MeV kinetic energy, 10 microamp average current, 0.5 microsecond macropulse length, resulting in average electron beam power of 180 W. …”

Automated Engineering Design for Reusable Concrete Building Structures by Wongsittikan, Pitipat

“…The Pixelframe structural system [1] was proposed to facilitate the reusability of concrete components by implementing the existing external post-tensioning system in bridge structures and fiber reinforced system to design building beams and columns. This work presents an automated engineering design workflow for Pixelframe, including a engineering mechanics of the system that conforms to ACI 318- 19 [2] and fib Model Code 2010 [3], half-scale tests to verify the preliminary behavior of the system, and a scalable design algorithm for minimum embodied carbon designs. …”

Frequency equations of nonlocal elastic micro/nanobeams with the consideration of the surface effects by Zhao, Haisheng, Zhang, Yao, Lie, Seng Tjhen

“…Three types of boundary conditions, i.e., hinged-hinged, clamped-clamped, and clamped-hinged ends, are examined. For a hinged-hinged beam, an exact and explicit natural frequency equation is derived based on the established mathematical model. …”

Energy gain of wetted-foam implosions with auxiliary heating for inertial fusion studies by Paddock, RW, Li, TS, Kim, E, Lee, JJ, Martin, H, Ruskov, RT, Hughes, S, Rose, SJ, Murphy, CD, Scott, RHH, Bingham, R, Garbett, W, Elisseev, VV, Haines, BM, Zlystra, AB, Campbell, EM, Thomas, CA, Goffrey, T, Arber, TD, Aboushelbaya, R, Von der Leyen, MW, Wang, RHW, James, AA, Ouatu, I, Timmis, R, Howard, S, Atonga, E, Norreys, PA

“…Low convergence ratio implosions (where wetted-foam layers are used to limit capsule convergence, achieving improved robustness to instability growth) and auxiliary heating (where electron beams are used to provide collisionless heating of a hotspot) are two promising techniques that are being explored for inertial fusion energy applications. …”

100 THz optical switching with plasmonic metamaterial by Venkatram, Nalla, Stefano, Vezzol, João, Valente, Sun, Handong, Nikolay, Zheludev

“…Alloptical modulation is control of the phase or intensity of one light beam by another.1 Although modulation can be achieved using nonlinear optical materials, it can be also obtained using constructive or destructive interference of a coherent beam. …”
