title: Screwball
Creators: name: Barnette, Nicholas
Publisher: name: University of Nevada, Las Vegas
Year: 2022

description: Screwball is a collection of poems and scenes formatted as a screenplay. The poems, a mix of landscape and persona poems, center on the themes of grief, time, and celebrity worship. The scenes offer a revisionist history to the plane crash in Goodsprings, Nevada on January 16, 1943 that killed actress Carole Lombard and twenty one others. This reimagining, in which the actress survives the crash, is framed as a screwball comedy from the 1940s, a medium dominated and perfected by the collection’s central figure, Carole Lombard, formerly Jane Alice Peters.

description: We investigate the quantum entanglement between two quantum dots in a plasmonic waveguide with near-zero mode index, considering the dependence of concurrence on interdot distance, quantum dot-waveguide frequency detuning and coupling strength ratio. High concurrence is achieved for a wide range of interdot distance due to the near-zero mode index, which largely relaxes the strict requirement of interdot distance in conventional dielectric waveguides or metal nanowires. The proposed quantum dot-waveguide system with near-zero phase variation along the waveguide near the mode cutoff frequency shows very promising potential in quantum optics and quantum information processing.

description: Yoga is a state of complete mindfulness and self-realization with an inwardly drawn focus, a state of mind – body integration in which there is a harmony between form and action. Yoga can help us treat a myriad of chronic health conditions like obesity, heart diseases, diabetes, depression, gastrointestinal problems, asthma, hypertension, chronic low back pain, and arthritis to name a few. Arthritis is a frequent, debilitating chronic disease which can cripple an individual if allowed to progress unchecked. In 2021, the prevalence of arthritis in USA was around 24% with a projection of 37% by 2030. Prevalence of arthritis is higher in Veterans (32%) than in non-Veterans (22%). Yoga de-stresses the mind, strengthens the muscles, and enhances the flexibility of joints in patients with arthritis. The objectives of our research were to determine the prevalence of arthritis, exercise, and performing yoga among Veterans in the United States, and to determine the association between arthritis and exercise and arthritis and yoga. We conducted a secondary data analysis of the Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (BRFSS) survey from 2019. The participants for this study included those who self-identified as Veterans. We used chi square tests to calculate our descriptive statistics. Logistic regression analyses were performed to calculate odds ratios and where odds ratios were significant, multiple logistic regressions were performed to control for significant covariates (i.e. covariates that where related to exercise or yoga at the p

description: In this paper is considered a problem of defining natural star-products on symplectic manifolds, admissible for quantization of classical Hamiltonian systems. First, a construction of a star-product on a cotangent bundle to an Euclidean configuration space is given with the use of a sequence of pair-wise commuting vector fields. The connection with a covariant representation of such a star-product is also presented. Then, an extension of the construction to symplectic manifolds over flat and non-flat pseudo-Riemannian configuration spaces is discussed. Finally, a coordinate free construction of related quantum mechanical operators from Hilbert space over respective configuration space is presented.

title: The Effect of Attachment Design and Aligner Material on the Efficiency of Maxillary Canine Distalization in Premolar Extraction Cases
Creators: name: Anbari, Najem
Publisher: name: University of Nevada, Las Vegas
Year: 2022

description: "Background: Clear Aligner Therapy (CAT) is regarded as a popular esthetic alternative to conventional orthodontic treatment with fixed labial appliances. The mechanism of action, force delivery and limitation of this treatment modality remain largely unknown despite its popularity, the high demand and the relatively long evolutionary track of clear aligners. There are only few studies that addressed the elements that influence the efficiency of clear aligners, namely, the attachment design and aligner materials. It is widely believed that clear aligners are not suitable for extraction cases due to their lack of control over the root movement.

Objectives: This in vitro simulation examines the efficiency of clear aligners with bodily tooth movement when variable attachment designs and aligner materials are used.

Materials and Methods: 3D printed resin typodonts with extracted first premolar were used to simulate the maxillary right canine distal bodily movement in a wax medium with sets of 10 clear aligners. Three types of resin attachments, a vertical rectangular, a multiplanar, and a twin attachment, were bonded to the facial surface of the canine. Three types of aligner materials, two Glycol-modified Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET-G) and one Copolyester-Polyester multi- laminate composite were used to fabricate the aligners. The canine crown movement, root movement and long axis changes were measured after the simulations, and the data were analyzed using one-way Analysis of Variance (ANOVA).

Results: Statistically significant differences were found between the 12 treatment groups. The highest amount of linear crown movement and distal tipping of the canine was observed in the (No Attachment Groups), while the (Twin Attachment Groups) showed the highest linear root movement and the highest ratios of bodily movement. No statistically significant differences were observed between the treatment simulation groups based on aligner materials.

Conclusions: The majority of the canine movement was the result of tipping. However, the presence of resin attachments, especially the twin attachment, reduced the distal tipping and improved the aligners’ control over force delivery to the coronal and root portion of the canine. Despite the significant differences identified between the attachment groups, there was no clinical evidence to support that a specific attachment design would have a significant impact on treatment outcome, or the intraoral behavior of the clear aligners. No significant differences were found between the thermoplastic materials tested in this study with respect to the overall distal tipping, root movement and the ratio of bodily movement of the canine."

description: Single-crystal diffuse scattering data have been collected at room temperature on synthetic titanite using both neutrons and high-energy X-rays. A simple ball-and-springs model reproduces the observed diffuse scattering well, confirming its origin to be primarily due to thermal motion of the atoms. Ab initio phonons are calculated using density-functional perturbation theory and are shown to reproduce the experimental diffuse scattering. The observed X-ray and neutron scattering patterns are consistent with a summation of mode frequencies and displacement eigenvectors associated with the entire phonon spectrum, rather than with a simple, short-range static displacement. A band gap is observed between 600 and 700 cm-1 with only two modes crossing this region, both associated with antiferroelectric Ti-O motion along a. One of these modes (of Bu symmetry), displays a large LO-TO mode-splitting (562-701.4 cm-1) and has a dominant component coming from Ti-O bond stretching and, thus, the mode-splitting is related to the polarizability of the Ti-O bonds along the chain direction. Similar mode-splitting is observed in piezo- and ferroelectric materials. The calculated phonon dispersion model may be of use to others in the future to understand the phase transition at higher temperatures, as well as in the interpretation of measured phonon dispersion curves.

description: A novel polarimeter based on the asymmetry in the spacial distribution of synchrotron radiation will make for a fine addition to the existing Møller and Compton polarimeters. The spin light polarimeter consists of a set of wiggler magnet along the beam that generate synchrotron radiation. The spacial distribution of synchrotron radiation will be measured by ionization chambers. The up-down (below and above the wiggle) spacial asymmetry in the transverse plain is used to quantify the polarization of the beam. As a part of the design process, effects of a realistic wiggler magnetic field and an extended beam size were studied. The perturbation introduced by these effects was found to be negligible. Lastly, a full fledged GEANT-4 simulation was built to study the response of the ionization chamber.

description: We present a theoretical description of the influence of misfit strain on mobile defects dynamics in thin strained ferroelectric films. Self-consistent solutions obtained by coupling the Poissons equation for electric potential with continuity equations for mobile donor and electron concentrations and time-dependent Landau-Ginzburg-Devonshire equations reveal that the Vegard mechanism (chemical pressure) leads to the redistribution of both charged and electro-neutral defects in order to decrease the effective stress in the film. Internal electric fields, both built-in and depolarization ones, lead to a strong accumulation of screening space charges (charged defects and electrons) near the film interfaces. Importantly, the corresponding screening length is governed by the misfit strain and Vegard coefficient. Mobile defects dynamics, kinetics of polarization and electric current reversal are defined by the complex interplay between the donor, electron and phonon relaxation times, misfit strain, finite size effect and Vegard stresses.

description: Digital Humanities (DH)has become a field of interest in Spain, especially in the last decade, despite having arrived later than in most other European countries. In fact, it has become a leading trend in research, either as a field of study and as a preferential financing topic. At the same time, because of its novelty, it is now under scrutiny by the research community and government institutions because neither the return of investment is clear nor the role that Spanish researchers can play within European-wide research infrastructures, such as DARIAH. In order to provide the global community of scholars working in this field with a greater understanding of the current Spanish scenario, LINHD (Laboratorio de Innovación de Humanidades Digitales -UNED) promoted a research on the evolution of DHin Spain in the last 25 years, using a quantitative approach. The objective of the study was to identify researchers in the field of DH and to explore their financing, institutional affiliations, research topics, and developed resources. Similar initiatives have been promoted in the past, producing internationally or regionally focused maps1, some of them still available online, with differences ranging from the geographical coverage to the types of data mapped. Other overviews on the subject have chosen a more qualitative approach, focused on identifying the most relevant steps in the evolution and consolidation of this research topic in the Iberian country2, still largely in place.

description: We found a giant Seebeck effect in semiconducting single-wall carbon nanotube (SWCNT) films, which exhibited a performance comparable to that of commercial Bi2Te3 alloys. Carrier doping of semiconducting SWCNT films further improved the thermoelectric performance. These results were reproduced well by first-principles transport simulations based on a simple SWCNT junction model. These findings suggest strategies that pave the way for emerging printed, all-carbon, flexible thermoelectric devices.

Lazarus Stars: Modeling and searching for engineered stars
Creators: name: Scoggins, Matthew T.
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2023

description: The aging and gradual brightening of the Sun will challenge Earth’s habitability in the next few
 billion years. If life exists elsewhere in the Universe, the aging of its host star similarly poses
 an existential threat. One solution, which we dub a Lazarus star, is for an advanced civilization
 to remove (or star-lift) mass from their host star at a rate that offsets the increase in luminosity,
 keeping the flux on the habitable planet(s) constant and extending the lifetime of their star.
 While this idea has existed since 1985 when it was first proposed by Criswell, numerical
 investigations of star-lifting have been lacking. Here, we use the stellar evolution code MESA
 to find mass vs. age and ¤𝑀 vs. age relations which would hold the flux on surrounding planets
 constant. We explore initial mass ranging from 0.2 M⊙ to 1.2 M⊙ . For most stars with a mass
 initially below about 0.4M⊙ , we find that star-lifting increases their main-sequence lifetimes
 up to 500 Gyr until they approach the hydrogen burning limit and star-lifting is no longer
 possible. For more massive stars, star-lifting increases main-sequence lifetimes by 1 Gyr to
 100 Gyr, though they still enter the red-giant phase. For example, a Sun-like star has a main-
 sequence lifetime which can be increased by up to 3 Gyr. This requires a mass-loss rate of
 about 0.05 MCeres per year. We compare star-lifting to other survival strategies and briefly
 discuss methods for detecting these engineered stars

description: The current paper mainly addresses the effect of the hydrogen partial pressure on the microstructure and transformation of the Ag$_2$O film. The transformation process and mechanism were also analyzed in detail. Increasing the hydrogen partial pressure can accelerate the transformation of Ag$_2$O to Ag and lower the critical transformation temperature of the film due to the enhanced hydrogen reduction, and to both of the lowered activation energy of the reaction of Ag$_2$O with hydrogen and enhanced lattice strain of the Ag$_2$O film, respectively. Hydrogen-involved reaction in the whole hydrogen annealing process is mainly hydrogen reduction reaction with Ag$_2$O. The diffusion of hydrogen and gaseous H$_2$O molecules is accompanied with the whole hydrogen annealing process.

The Vertical Structure of the F Ring of Saturn from Ring-Plane Crossings

Year: 2013
Subjects: subject: Earth and Planetary Astrophysics (astro-ph.EP)

description: We present a photometric model of the rings of Saturn which includes the main rings and an F ring, inclined to the main rings, with a Gaussian vertical profile of optical depth. This model reproduces the asymmetry in brightness between the east and west ansae of the rings of Saturn that was observed by the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) within a few hours after the Earth ring-plane crossing (RPX) of 10 August 1995. The model shows that during this observation the inclined F ring unevenly blocked the east and west ansae of the main rings. The brightness asymmetry produced by the model is highly sensitive to the vertical thickness and radial optical depth of the F ring. The F ring model that best matches the observations has a vertical full width at half maximum of 13 +/- 7 km and an equivalent depth of 10 +/- 4 km. The model also reproduces the shape of the HST profiles of ring brightness vs. distance from Saturn, both before and after the time of ring-plane crossing. Smaller asymmetries observed before the RPX, when the Earth was on the dark side of the rings, cannot be explained by blocking of the main rings by the F ring or vice versa and are probably instead due to the intrinsic longitudinal variation exhibited by the F ring.

description: The alpha-cluster states of $^{22}$Ne are studied within the framework of the semimicroscopic algebraic cluster model (SACM). The band structure, energy spectrum as well as E2 and E1 transitions are calculated and are compared with the experimental data. The results are also compared with those obtained from two microscopic models: the deformed-basis antisymmetrized molecular dynamics (DAMD) approach and the generator-coordinate method (GCM). It is found that the prominent bands obtained in the latter frameworks all have equivalents in the SACM and the agreement between the calculated spectroscopic properties is rather good, especially for positive-parity states.

description: We report the first entanglement generation experiment using an on-chip slow light device. With highly efficient spontaneous four-wave mixing enhanced by the slow light effect in a coupled resonator optical waveguide based on a silicon photonic crystal, we generated 1.5-$μ$m-band high-dimensional time-bin entangled photon pairs. We undertook two-photon interference experiments and observed the coincidence fringes with visibilities $>74\%$. The present result enables us to realize an on-chip entanglement source with a very small footprint, which is an essential function for quantum information processing based on integrated quantum photonics.

description: IGR J17480$-$2446 is an accreting X-ray pulsar in a low-mass X-ray binary harbored in the Galactic globular cluster Terzan 5. Compared with other accreting millisecond pulsars, IGR J17480$-$2446 is peculiar in its low spin frequency (11 Hz), which suggests that it might be a mildly recycled neutron star at the very early phase of mass transfer. However, this model seems to be in contrast with the low field strength deduced from the kiloHertz quasi-periodic oscillations observed in IGR J17480$-$2446. Here we suggest an alternative interpretation, assuming that the current binary system was formed during an exchange encounter either between a binary (which contains a recycled neutron star) and the current donor, or between a binary and an isolated, recycled neutron star. In the resulting binary, the spin axis of the neutron star could be parallel or anti-parallel with the orbital axis. In the later case, the abnormally low frequency of IGR J17480$-$2446 may result from the spin-down to spin-up evolution of the neutron star. We also briefly discuss the possible observational implications of the pulsar in this scenario.

description: Dynamic behaviour of a WMN imposes stringent constraints on the routing policy of the network. In the shortest path based routing the shortest paths needs to be evaluated within a given time frame allowed by the WMN dynamics. The exact reasoning based shortest path evaluation methods usually fail to meet this rigid requirement. Thus, requiring some soft computing based approaches which can replace "best for sure" solutions with "good enough" solutions. This paper proposes a framework for optimal routing in the WMNs; where we investigate the suitability of Big Bang-Big Crunch (BB-BC), a soft computing based approach to evaluate shortest/near-shortest path. In order to make routing optimal we first propose to replace distance between the adjacent nodes with an integrated cost measure that takes into account throughput, delay, jitter and residual energy of a node. A fuzzy logic based inference mechanism evaluates this cost measure at each node. Using this distance measure we apply BB-BC optimization algorithm to evaluate shortest/near shortest path to update the routing tables periodically as dictated by network requirements. A large number of simulations were conducted and it has been observed that BB-BC algorithm appears to be a high potential candidate suitable for routing in WMNs.

description: Recent theoretical studies have provided new insight into the intrinsic transverse momentum distributions of valence and sea quarks in the nucleon at a low scale. The valence quark transverse momentum distributions (q - qbar) are governed by the nucleon's inverse hadronic size R^{-1} ~ 0.2 GeV and drop steeply at large p_T. The sea quark distributions (qbar) are in large part generated by non-perturbative chiral-symmetry-breaking interactions and extend up to the scale rho^{-1} ~ 0.6 GeV. These findings have many implications for modeling the initial conditions of perturbative QCD evolution of TMD distributions (starting scale, shape of p_T distributions, coordinate-space correlation functions). The qualitative difference between valence and sea quark intrinsic p_T distributions could be observed experimentally, by comparing the transverse momentum distributions of selected hadrons in semi-inclusive deep-inelastic scattering, or those of dileptons produced in pp and pbar-p scattering.

description: Following the theoretical approach by Xiao et al [Phys. Rev. B 81, 214418 (2010)] to the spin Seebeck effect, we calculate the mean value of the total spin current flowing through a normalmetal/ ferromagnet interface. The spin current emitted from the ferromagnet to the normal metal is evaluated in the framework of the Fokker-Planck approach for the stochastic Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert equation. We show that the total spin current depends not only on the temperature difference between the electron and the magnon baths, but also on the external magnetic field and magnetic anisotropy. Apart from this, the spin current is shown to saturate with increasing magnon temperature, and the saturation temperature increases with increasing magnetic field and/or magnetic anisotropy.

description: We study a system of two bosonic fields subject to two-mode squeezing in the presence of dissipation. We find the Lie algebra governing the dynamics of the problem and use the Wei-Norman method to determine the solutions. Using this scheme we arrive at a closed form expression for an infinitely dimensional density operator which we use to calculate the degree of entanglement (quantified by Horodeckis' negativity) between the modes. We compare our result to the known continuous variable entanglement measures. We analyse the conditions for entanglement generation and the influence of thermal environments on the state formed. The problem is relevant, in particular, for understanding of quantum dynamics of coupled optical and/or mechanical modes in optomechanical and nanomechanical systems.

description: We have built and commissioned a prototype agitated non-circular core fiber scrambler for precision spectroscopic radial velocity measurements in the near-infrared H band. We have collected the first on-sky performance and modal noise tests of these novel fibers in the near-infrared at H and K bands using the CSHELL spectrograph at the NASA InfraRed Telescope Facility (IRTF). We discuss the design behind our novel reverse injection of a red laser for co-alignment of star-light with the fiber tip via a corner cube and visible camera. We summarize the practical details involved in the construction of the fiber scrambler, and the mechanical agitation of the fiber at the telescope. We present radial velocity measurements of a bright standard star taken with and without the fiber scrambler to quantify the relative improvement in the obtainable blaze function stability, the line spread function stability, and the resulting radial velocity precision. We assess the feasibility of applying this illumination stabilization technique to the next generation of near-infrared spectrographs such as iSHELL on IRTF and an upgraded NIRSPEC at Keck. Our results may also be applied in the visible for smaller core diameter fibers where fiber modal noise is a significant factor, such as behind an adaptive optics system or on a small < 1 meter class telescope such as is being pursued by the MINERVA and LCOGT collaborations.

description: In the present paper, we consider the Cauchy problem of nonlinear Schrödinger equations with a derivative nonlinearity which depends only on $\bar{u}$. The well-posedness of the equation at the scaling subcritical regularity was proved by A. Grünrock (2000). We prove the well-posedness of the equation and the scattering for the solution at the scaling critical regularity by using $U^{2}$ space and $V^{2}$ space which are applied to prove the well-posedness and the scattering for KP-II equation at the scaling critical regularity by Hadac, Herr and Koch (2009).

description: The group of thermally emitting isolated neutron stars (INSs) known as the "Magnificent Seven" (M7) is unique among the various neutron star populations. Crustal heating by means of magnetic field decay and an evolutionary link with magnetars may explain why these objects rotate more slowly and have higher thermal luminosities and magnetic field intensities than standard pulsars of similar age. The third brightest INS, RX J1605.3+3249, is the only object amidst the seven still lacking a detected periodicity. We observed the source with the XMM-Newton Observatory for 60 ks aiming at unveiling the neutron star rotation rate and investigating its spectrum in detail. A periodic signal at P=3.387864(16) s, most likely the neutron star spin period, is detected at the 4-sigma confidence level. The coherent combination of the new data with a past XMM-Newton EPIC-pn observation of the source constrains the pulsar spin-down rate at the 2-sigma confidence level, implying a dipolar magnetic field of B~7.4e13 G. If confirmed, RX J1605.3+3249 would be the neutron star with the highest dipolar field amongst the M7. The spectrum of the source shows evidence of a cool blackbody component, as well as for the presence of two broad absorption features. Furthermore, high-resolution spectroscopy with the RGS cameras confirms the presence of a narrow absorption feature at energy 0.57 keV in the co-added spectrum of the source, also seen in other thermally emitting isolated neutron stars. Phase-resolved spectroscopy, as well as a dedicated observing campaign aimed at determining a timing solution, will give invaluable constraints on the neutron star geometry and will allow one to confirm the high value of spin down, which would place the source closer to a magnetar than any other M7 INS.

Effects of Alpha-1 Antitrypsin on the Neutrophil Plasma Membrane Proteome

description: Alpha-1 antitrypsin (AAT) deficiency (AATD) results in early onset emphysema and liver disease and represents a common indication for lung transplant. Patients homozygous for the mutant Z allele (Pi*ZZ) are the most commonly affected by AATD-related disease. Treatment with weekly infusion of pooled human AAT has been shown to slow the progression of emphysema in these individuals. AAT is an important anti-protease and the primary mechanism for lung disease in AATD is via unopposed action of the serine protease neutrophil elastase. Our hypothesis is that AAT also functions as a key regulator of neutrophil activation and function. Our aim is to elucidate the effects of AAT on the circulating neutrophil in vivo by performing the first proteomic analysis of the neutrophil plasma membrane in AATD, both preand post-augmentation therapy, as compared to healthy controls. Neutrophils were isolated from Pi*ZZ AATD individuals and from healthy controls (n=10 per group). Neutrophils were also isolated from AATD patients on day 0 and day 2 of AAT augmentation therapy (nadir and peak AAT levels respectively, n=6 per group) and from FEV1-matched COPD patients without AATD (n=6). A plasma membrane fraction was prepared by sucrose density ultracentrifugation after lysis by sonication. Proteomic analysis was performed using liquid chromatography mass spectrometry following digestion by trypsin. Resultant proteomic data was analysed for differential expression of proteins between cohorts and between time-points of AAT augmentation. Results demonstrated that the neutrophil plasma membrane proteome is significantly altered in AATD compared to HC. Furthermore, these differences persisted when controlling for the presence of lung disease. Exogenous AAT altered the neutrophil proteome, with protein expression on day 2 of augmentation therapy reverting towards that of COPD inflammatory control. Exogenous AAT in vivo was shown to modify expression on the neutrophil surface of key proteins associated with degranulation and integrin-mediated signalling, in keeping with previously established effects of AAT on neutrophil function. This high-throughput methodology has generated further hypotheses that will guide investigation of altered neutrophil function in AATD, as well as the effects of exogenous AAT. This may have clinical implications, both for individuals with AATD and for the potential use of AAT as a treatment for inflammatory lung disease.
Population synthesis of young isolated neutron stars: the effect of fallback disk accretion and magnetic field evolution

description: The spin evolution of isolated neutron stars (NSs) is dominatd by their magnetic fields. The measured braking indices of young NSs show that the spin-down mechanism due to magnetic dipole radiation with constant magnetic fields is inadequate. Assuming that the NS magnetic field is buried by supernova fallback matter and re-emerges after accretion stops, we carry out Monte-Carlo simulation of the evolution of young NSs, and show that most of the pulsars have the braking indices ranging from -1 to 3. The results are compatible with the observational data of NSs associated with supernova remnants. They also suggest that the initial spin periods of NSs might occupy a relatively wide range.

description: Large multinational firms (LMF) play a crucial role in the dynamics of knowledge production worldwide. The study conducted by Université Eiffel, using inventive activities as a central marker, highlights in particular four major results: (i) Large groups represent 80% of worldwide international inventive activities and, contrary to many expectations, this role has increased over the last decade. (ii) Though LMF are present in 60% of inventive metropolitan areas, the top 100 metropolitan areas worldwide concentrate 80% of LMF international patents. (iii) Large metropolitan areas gather 90% of international patents in Asia, 70% in the US, but only 37% in Europe. Europe has thus a very different structure where inventive activities are more distributed with a central role of medium-size metropolitan areas. (iv) ‘National’ LMF play a majority role in the overall production of metropolitan areas: over 90% in Asia, and 75% in the US. In Europe, this share is only 57%. This highlights the role of LMF from other European countries (23%) and from outside of Europe (20%). These four results question research and innovation policies and call for an open debate about their policy-mix and their role in distributive and inclusion objectives. The study has been conducted, using in an integrated way the three major resources developed within RISIS: CIB dataset on large firms, RISIS patent database on patents, and CORTEXT geolocation on metropolitan areas.

description: We have built and commissioned gas absorption cells for precision spectroscopic radial velocity measurements in the near-infrared in the H and K bands. We describe the construction and installation of three such cells filled with 13CH4, 12CH3D, and 14NH3 for the CSHELL spectrograph at the NASA Infrared Telescope Facility (IRTF). We have obtained their high-resolution laboratory Fourier Transform spectra, which can have other practical uses. We summarize the practical details involved in the construction of the three cells, and the thermal and mechanical control. In all cases, the construction of the cells is very affordable. We are carrying out a pilot survey with the 13CH4 methane gas cell on the CSHELL spectrograph at the IRTF to detect exoplanets around low mass and young stars. We discuss the current status of our survey, with the aim of photon-noise limited radial velocity precision. For adequately bright targets, we are able to probe a noise floor of 7 m/s with the gas cell with CSHELL at cassegrain focus. Our results demonstrate the feasibility of using a gas cell on the next generation of near-infrared spectrographs such as iSHELL on IRTF, iGRINS, and an upgraded NIRSPEC at Keck.
