Rare Crystal Shape Found to Increase the Strength of 3D-Printed Metal

2 weeks ago | nist.gov | Brian Gutiérrez

Andrew Iams saw something strange while looking through his electron microscope. He was examining a sliver of a new aluminum alloy at the atomic scale, searching for the key to its strength, when he noticed that the atoms were arranged in an extremely unusual pattern.

Quantum is everywhere, and you can understand the basic quirks of life at the quantum level … no math required
Infographic on Post-Earthquake Functional Recovery Performance

2 months ago | nist.gov | Katherine Johnson |Siamak Sattar |Dustin Cook

In the U.S., building codes and standards have been developed to reduce the likelihood of building collapse but do not address the loss of building functions or recovery times due to earthquakes. When scaled to the community level, negative consequences, such as lack of access to jobs and schools and, ultimately, population displacement, may occur. Buildings and infrastructure systems can be improved to better meet the needs of users and occupants after natural hazard events.
Texas Forensic Science Commission Supports NIST Recommendations

Jan 13, 2025 | nist.gov | Christina Reed

NIST forensic science program leads recommend analysts include alongside their results information about their adherence to an approved method and the performance of that method when tested using samples that are most reflective of the quality or conditions or the evidence in the case at hand. The Texas Forensic Science Commission (TFSC) reviewed the NIST authors’ recommendations and established a collaborative working group focused on understanding and implementing them in Texas labs.

The NIST Cybersecurity Framework (CSF) 2.0 (Polish translation)

Nov 12, 2024 | nist.gov | Cherilyn Pascoe |Stephen Quinn |Karen Scarfone

The NIST Cybersecurity Framework (CSF) 2.0 provides guidance to industry, government agencies, and other organizations to manage cybersecurity risks. It offers a taxonomy of high-level cybersecurity outcomes that can be used by any organization — regardless of its size, sector, or maturity — to better understand, assess, prioritize, and communicate its cybersecurity efforts. The CSF does not prescribe how outcomes should be achieved.
A House Ahead of Its Time

Nov 3, 2024 | nist.gov | Gabriel Popkin

The house would hardly stand out if plopped into one of the neighborhoods that surround NIST’s sprawling Gaithersburg, Maryland, campus. Its sloped driveway leads to an attached garage. Pleasant eco-friendly landscaping, unassuming green-grey siding and classic-looking windows and doors all contribute to a sense of stately suburban normalcy. Only the unusually dense array of rooftop solar panels and the scientific equipment scattered around the perimeter hint that this house might be special.
