Pore‐Water Extraction from Unsaturated Porous Media: Intermediate‐Scale Laboratory Experiments and Simulations

open access: yesVadose Zone Journal, 2014
As a remedial approach, vacuum‐induced pore‐water extraction offers the possibility of contaminant and water removal from the vadose zone, which may be beneficial in reducing the flux of vadose zone contaminants to groundwater.

Global Optimization for Future Gravitational Wave Detectors' Sites [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
We consider the optimal site selection of future generations of gravitational wave detectors. Previously, Raffai et al. optimized a 2-detector network with a combined figure of merit.

Security and the shaping of identity for nuclear specialists [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Atomic energy developed from 1940 as a subject shrouded in secrecy. Identified successively as a crucial element in military strategy, national status and export aspirations, the research and development of atomic piles (nuclear chain-reactors) were ...

Interpretation of large‐scale, long‐term electrical geophysical monitoring guided by a process simulation

open access: yesVadose Zone Journal
Surface electrical resistivity tomography (ERT) was used at a waste site to monitor vadose zone changes in electrical properties as a proxy for contaminant flux over a span of 17 years.

Search for Multimessenger Sources of Gravitational Waves and High-energy Neutrinos with Advanced LIGO during Its First Observing Run, ANTARES, and IceCube

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2019
Astrophysical sources of gravitational waves, such as binary neutron star and black hole mergers or core-collapse supernovae, can drive relativistic outflows, giving rise to non-thermal high-energy emission.

The Hanford Site focus, 1994 [PDF]

open access: yes, 1994
This report describes what the Hanford Site will look like in the next two years. We offer thumbnail sketches of Hanford Site programs and the needs we are meeting through our efforts. We describe our goals, some recent accomplishments, the work we will do in fiscal year (FY) 1994, the major activities the FY 1995 budget request covers, and the ...
