Twin‐compartment solid–liquid cells for neutron reflectometry
We introduce a twin‐compartment solid–liquid cell for neutron reflectometry that divides a single substrate into two independent measurement areas, doubling sample capacity and enabling direct side‐by‐side comparisons. This sample environment also reduces alignment and sample preparation time and has been successfully tested on both vertical and ...

Models of Quasi-Steady and Unsteady Discharge from Plumbing Fixtures
Modeling methods are developed to predict the discharge characteristics of simulated simplified configurations for plumbing fixtures connected to horizontal drain branch piping. Computations are carried out to illustrate several methods of determining the effect of various loss coefficients of the drain connection, pipe length, pipe diameter, and ...

Abstract Three‐quarters of US prisons offer vocational training programs, which aim to place trainees in middle‐skills jobs in specific occupational sectors post‐release. These middle‐skills jobs may more effectively reduce recidivism than the jobs that normally characterize the labor market experience of the formerly incarcerated, yet whether ...

Bank Monitoring with On‐Site Inspections
ABSTRACT Using proprietary transaction‐level data on nonsyndicated construction loans, we provide some of the first empirical evidence on the drivers and consequences of bank monitoring through on‐site inspections. Banks trade off monitoring intensity with favorable origination terms.
