  • Patent number: 12362925
    Abstract: A method of generating a random symbol sequence using quantum opto-electronic devices A and B with device-independent security is disclosed. The method is characterized by the two sources each producing entangled two-beam, pulsed multiphoton quantum states of light and sending one beam to a quantum interference and measurement device C. Before being sent, the beams are multiplexed with coherent beams. Quantum interference and measurement device C demultiplexes them and uses coherent beams for compensating the fluctuations in the quantum beams. Then, it interferes quantum beams on a beam splitter, measures the output and sends results back. Subsequently, A and B share an entangled state. They interfere local beams with coherent light on beam splitters and measure on detectors. A fraction of measurements are kept secret and used as the source of symbols forming the cryptographic key, while others are used to establish the security using an entanglement test.

  • Patent number: 12359611
    Abstract: A reactor system includes a pressure vessel having a vessel wall, a feed port at a superior end of the pressure vessel, a permeable liner disposed within the pressure vessel and at least one hydrothermal jet mounted to the pressure vessel. The feed port is configured for feeding a liquid target reactant stream into the pressure vessel. The permeable liner separates the pressure vessel into an internal reaction zone and an outer annular chamber. The hydrothermal jet is mounted external to the reaction zone and is configured to add heated mixture of carrier and oxidizer to the internal reaction zone. A dividing wall portions the outer annular chamber into a cooling zone and an exhaust zone through which by-products of the reaction exit from the reaction zone.

  • Patent number: 12333020
    Abstract: Systems are provided for generating, modifying and using SBOMs for facilitating risk assessment and threat mitigation for corresponding programs, and particularly for large programming builds. The creation and modification of the SBOMs includes processes for omitting declarations referenced in chunk SBOMs of program chunks incorporated into a final programming build associated with a build SBOM, but which are not actually utilized by the final programming build, as well as processes for adding new declarations for code segments that are not declared in the related chunk SBOMs, even though the code segments are utilized by the final programming build. Systems are also configured to use SBOMs in combination with configuration restriction records to assess and resolve threat events in a manner that can prevent unnecessary remedial actions for threat events that appear to be relevant to one or more files or dependencies incorporated into a program.

  • Publication number: 20250145811
    Abstract: A multilayer permeation resistant article, such as a fuel transfer hose, includes an elastomeric layer and a polyketone (PK) barrier layer. The elastomeric layer may be directly bonded to the PK barrier layer without an intervening adhesive layer. To facilitate such direct bonding, the elastomeric layer may be formed from a composition including one or more ethylene vinyl acetate elastomer(s). The elastomeric composition may include additional elastomer(s), such as chlorinated polyethylene (CPE), acrylonitrile butadiene rubber (NBR), hydrogenated nitrile rubber (HNBR), or chlorosulfonated polyethylene (CSM). The barrier layer may exhibit a permeation rate of less than 10 g/m2/day. The bonding performance of the elastomeric layer to the PK barrier layer may be characterized by an average load per width of 10 lbf/in or greater.
