Given the agreement among TCSCF, MP2, and MRMP methods, it is concluded that the structure of Si9H12 is symmetric, that dynamic correlation does not play a major role in determining the structure, and that DFT incorrectly predicts Si9H12 to be buckled.
متن کاملSoftware for Ballistic Missile Defense
A battle management system for comprehensive ballistic missile defense must perform with near perfection and extraordinarily reliability. It will be complex to an unprecedented degree, untestable in a realistic environment, and provide minimal time for human intervention. The feasibility of designing and developing such a system (requiring upwards of ten million lines of code) is examined in li...
متن کاملThe Growing Importance of Ballistic Missile Defense
The idea of ballistic missile defense (BMD) is not new. It originally emerged in the early years of the Cold War as part of the overall strategic competition between the United States and the Soviet Union. The notion that ballistic missiles could be intercepted and destroyed in flight offered the prospect of a system of security based upon an “active defense” rather than the unnerving notion of...
متن کاملAirborne Boost-Phase Ballistic Missile Defense
Boost-phase ballistic missile defense is alluring because rocket boosters are easy to detect and track, they are relatively vulnerable due to the large axial loads on a missile under powered flight, the entire payload (single or multiple warheads and midcourse penetration aids) may be destroyed in a single shot, and countermeasures to defeat boostphase defense are more difficult to devise than ...
متن کاملDiscrimination Performance Requirements for Ballistic Missile Defense
III A missile defense system must be able to deal with an attack containing decoys in addition to warheads. If the defense system does not have enough interceptors to shoot at all the incoming objects, it must be able to discriminate between decoys and warheads. This discrimination process is not perfect and results in two types of errors: leakage (not shooting at warheads) and false alarms (sh...
