AFRL Additive Manufacturing Modeling Series: Challenge 4, In Situ Mechanical Test of an IN625 Sample with Concurrent High-Energy Diffraction Microscopy Characterization

In this work, we describe 3D characterization of an additively manufactured Inconel 625 nickel-base superalloy specimen conducted during a uniaxial tension test using a suite of nondestructive x-ray techniques. High-energy diffraction microscopy in both near- and far-field modalities are employed in situ to track evolution of the material orientation and stress–strain fields at six points during the mechanical test, and these data streams are registered with micro-computed tomography reconstructions which probe the material density. This data volume was matched to a multi-modal serial sectioning characterization of the specimen taken after loading, described in this article’s companion. Twenty-eight grains which were monitored throughout the experiment were selected to form the basis for AFRL AM Modeling Series Challenge 4, Microscale Structure-to-Properties.

CMB lensing and Ly⁢ α forest cross bispectrum from DESI’s first-year quasar sample

The squeezed cross-bispectrum B κ,Ly α between the gravitational lensing in the cosmic microwave background and the 1D Ly α forest power spectrum can constrain bias parameters and break degeneracies between σ8 and other cosmological parameters. We detect B κ,Ly ⁢α with 4.8⁢σ significance at an effective redshift z eff =2.4 using Planck PR3 lensing map and over 280,000 quasar spectra from the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument’s first-year data. We test our measurement against metal contamination and foregrounds such as Galactic extinction and clusters of galaxies by deprojecting the thermal Sunyaev-Zeldovich effect. Finally, we compare our results to a tree-level perturbation theory calculation and find reasonable agreement between the model and measurement.

Sample-dependent and sample-independent thermal transport properties of α – RuCl 3

In this study, we investigated the thermal transport properties of two α–RuCl 3 crystals with different degrees of stacking disorder to understand the origin of the previously reported oscillatory feature in the field dependence of thermal conductivity. Crystal I shows only one magnetic order around 13 K, which is near the highest T N for α–RuCl 3 with stacking faults. Crystal II has less stacking disorder, with a dominant heat capacity at 7.6 K along with weak anomalies at 10 and 13 K. In the temperature and field dependence of thermal conductivity, no obvious anomaly was observed to be associated with the magnetic order around 13 K for either crystal or around 10 K for crystal II. Crystal II showed clear oscillations in the field dependence of thermal conductivity, while crystal I did not. For crystal I, an L-shaped region in the temperature-field space was observed where thermal Hall conductivity κ xy /T is within ±20% of the half quantized thermal Hall conductivity κ HQ /T, while for crystal II, κ xy /T reaches κ HQ /T only in the high field and high temperature regime with no indication of a plateau at κ HQ /T. Our thermal conductivity data suggest the oscillatory features are inherent to the zigzag ordered phase with T N near 7 K. Our planar thermal Hall effect measurements suggest the sensitivity of this phenomena to stacking disorder. Overall, our results highlight the importance of understanding and controlling crystallographic disorder for obtaining and interpreting intrinsic thermal transport properties in α–RuCl 3 .
