An At-Home Evaluation of a Light Intervention to Mitigate Sleep Inertia Symptoms

Introduction: Sleep inertia symptoms typically occur after waking from nocturnal sleep. Under laboratory settings, light exposure upon waking has been shown to improve alertness, mood, and vigilant attention. We investigated whether a field-deployable light-emitting device would help to improve alertness and working memory in a real-world setting. Methods: Thirty-five participants (18 female; 26.4 ± 6.0 y) completed an at-home, within-subject, randomized crossover study. Participants wore actiwatches during their normal sleep-wake schedule for five nights ahead of the adaptation and experimental nights. On the experimental night, participants performed baseline testing before their self-selected bedtime. Forty-five minutes after bedtime, participants received a phone call and were instructed to perform test bouts while wearing light-emitting glasses with the light either on (light condition) or off (control). A 3-minute descending subtraction task (DST) and the Karolinska Sleepiness Scale (KSS) were performed at +7, +17, +27, and +37 minutes after the call. Participants were then instructed to go back to sleep and were called 45 minutes after lights out to repeat the test bouts in the opposite condition. A series of mixed-effects models were performed with fixed effects of condition, test bout, and their interaction, and a random effect of participant. Condition order, sex, and baseline were included as covariates. Results: There was a significant effect of test bout for DST total responses (χ2 [3] = 17.42; p < .001) and total correct (χ2 [3] = 21.29; p < .001) with improved performance at +27 and +37 minutes compared to +7 minutes. Sex was a significant predictor for KSS (F1,30 = 10.26; p = .003), with females (8.20 ± 0.23) rating higher sleepiness than males (7.10 ± 0.25). There were no other significant effects for DST or KSS outcomes (p > .05). Conclusion: These results suggest that the intervention was not able to improve working memory or alertness under naturalistic at-home settings. Further analysis is needed to determine whether these results are applicable to other cognitive performance domains.

Complete the Design, Cost Estimate, Assembly Plan, and Operating Instructions for a Bench-Scale Packed-Bed Tubular Methanol Catalyst Testing System

This report details the design of a test stand that converts carbon dioxide and hydrogen into methanol via a two-step process. The first step is a reverse water-gas shift reaction, carried out at 600°C and 25 bar to reduce carbon dioxide to carbon monoxide, and the second is a synthesis reaction that forms methanol at 260°C and 75 bar. The purpose of the system is to test catalysts for each of these steps. The test stand produces approximately 1.5 gallons of crude methanol (methanol mixed with water) per day, and recycles unreacted syngas for increased efficiency. At peak recycle, the stand is expected to consume 0.29 cylinders per day of carbon dioxide and 1.43 cylinders per day of hydrogen. It is planned to be built next to the Blue Star electrolysis unit in the Energy Systems Laboratory (ESL) and includes future plans of acquiring hydrogen from that stand rather than gas cylinders. At this phase of research, three key documents have been produced, as summarized in Table 1. These documents are primarily intended to describe the system and its operation, demonstrate that selected components are appropriate for the intended application, identify potential hazards, safeguards, and mitigation strategies, and ensure that the system is designed to appropriate standards. The body of the report and its appendices provide a narrative of the work completed in FY25. The parts required to build the test stand will be procured and assembled in FY26. Testing will be conducted in the final quarter.

Computational Prediction of Infrasound Arrival Times and Directions from Stationary and Moving Impulsive Sources

This report addresses the need to predict infrasound signal arrival times and back azimuths at monitoring stations, enabling more focused and efficient searches within recorded waveform data. The primary challenge is estimating expected signal arrival windows for stationary and moving acoustic sources, such as chemical explosions, volcanic eruptions, meteoroids, and spacecraft re-entry events. To address this challenge, a reproducible methodology is described that uses simplified propagation speeds for boundary layer, tropospheric, stratospheric, and thermospheric atmospheric waveguides. While the Python source code itself is not freely available, this document provides detailed, step-by-step instructions, and equations enabling users to replicate and adapt the method independently. The method reliably predicts signal arrival intervals and back azimuths, thereby supporting rapid detection and accurate interpretation of infrasound events. Results demonstrate that this method effectively identifies plausible signal arrival intervals and directions, facilitating faster event detection and more reliable interpretation. This methodology directly supports atmospheric monitoring, planetary defense, and forensic analysis of explosive atmospheric events.

Co-designing Spectral Transformation Oracles with Hybrid Oscillator-Qubit Quantum Processors: From Algorithms to Compilation

We co-design a family of quantum eigenvalue transformation oracles that can be efficiently implemented on hybrid discrete- or continuous-variable (qubit or qumode) hardware. To illustrate the oracle’s representation-theoretic power and near-term experimental accessibility, we encode a Gaussian imaginary time-evolution spectral filter. As a result, we define a continuous linear combination of unitaries block encoding. Due to the ancillary qumode’s infinite-dimensional nature, continuous-variable qumodes constitute a powerful compilation tool for encoding continuous spectral functions without discretization errors while minimizing resource requirements. We then focus on the ubiquitous task of preparing eigenstates in quantum spin models. For completeness, we provide an end-to-end compilation which expresses high-level oracles in terms of an experimentally realizable instruction set architecture in both 1D and 2D. Finally, we examine the leading-order effects of physical errors and highlight open research directions. Our algorithms scale linearly with the spatial extent of the target system and are applicable to both near-term and large-scale quantum processors.

Evaluating Energy Savings Measures for Building Retrofits in an Interactive Workshop Environment

As part of the Better Buildings Summit 2025, a workshop was developed to simulate the decision process for implementing a set of energy savings measures on an existing building. As part of the workshop a "game" was created around energy savings strategies, and workshop participants selected renovation cards that provided data around the impacts of that renovation choice. Participants then were able to calculate overall savings and payback from the selected retrofit opportunities. This publication has been produced to package the resources used in the activity in an organized document so that the materials can be distributed and reused more broadly. It provides a comprehensive framework for replicating the workshop, including step-by-step instructions, retrofit "game cards" with data points, and facilitation guidance. By using these materials, readers can conduct their own version of this interactive workshop with stakeholders in their networks, such as building owners, energy managers, or policy makers. The goal is to empower users to simulate the decision-making processes for energy projects, foster collaboration, and drive meaningful discussions around cost-effective retrofit opportunities and goal-oriented outcomes.

Tools Ensure Reliability of Critical Software

In November 2006, after attempting to make a routine maneuver, NASA's Mars Global Surveyor (MGS) reported unexpected errors. The onboard software switched to backup resources, and a 2-day lapse in communication took place between the spacecraft and Earth. When a signal was finally received, it indicated that MGS had entered safe mode, a state of restricted activity in which the computer awaits instructions from Earth. After more than 9 years of successful operation gathering data and snapping pictures of Mars to characterize the planet's land and weather communication between MGS and Earth suddenly stopped. Months later, a report from NASA's internal review board found the spacecraft's battery failed due to an unfortunate sequence of events. Updates to the spacecraft's software, which had taken place months earlier, were written to the wrong memory address in the spacecraft's computer. In short, the mission ended because of a software defect. Over the last decade, spacecraft have become increasingly reliant on software to carry out mission operations. In fact, the next mission to Mars, the Mars Science Laboratory, will rely on more software than all earlier missions to Mars combined. According to Gerard Holzmann, manager at the Laboratory for Reliable Software (LaRS) at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL), even the fault protection systems on a spacecraft are mostly software-based. For reasons like these, well-functioning software is critical for NASA. In the same year as the failure of MGS, Holzmann presented a new approach to critical software development to help reduce risk and provide consistency. He proposed The Power of 10: Rules for Developing Safety-Critical Code, which is a small set of rules that can easily be remembered, clearly relate to risk, and allow compliance to be verified. The reaction at JPL was positive, and developers in the private sector embraced Holzmann's ideas.

Medical/Scientific Illustration And Production Of Otological Health Awareness Materials

Over the past year, I have worked for my mentor, Beth Cooper, on a large variety of projects. Beth is the Manager of the Acoustical Testing Laboratory, which tests the acoustical emissions of payloads destined for the International Space Station. She is also responsible for educating, and developing new methods of educating, people of all occupational and educational backgrounds in hearing conservation. Beth spends much of her time developing new materials and strategies with which to train people and teach other people to train people in hearing conservation and noise emissions control. I have been helping Beth develop and market these materials by way of graphic design and scientific illustration. Last summer, I spent much of my time creating educational illustrations that visually explained particular concepts in Beth's presentations. Sometimes these illustrations were small "comics" while, at other times, they were an instructional series of illustrations. Since then, Beth and her lab have been developing and updating some materials which will be distributed free to hearing conservation and noise control professionals and others in related fields. I have helped with these projects by designing their packaging. In each instance, it was my responsibility to develop an aesthetically appealing package that would also, through its imagery, describe or summarize the contents of the product. I did this for 3 CD's (Auditory Demonstrations 11, MACSUG, and JeopEARdy) and saw them through their actual production and distribution. In addition to working with Beth, I work with the Imaging Technology Center on various imaging projects. Some of my activities include photo retouching and manipulation for videos and print. This summer, I also had the opportunity to develop a screen saver that would show of some of the photography contained on the soon-to-be-released "Highlights of the GRC Image Archives, vol. 2". I was also able to utilize my medical training to help several of ITC s videographers identify the best histological examples of cancerous cells for incorporation in one of their videos. Over the last part of this summer and then throughout the school year, I will be working with Beth to develop a "pre-packaged" lecture series about the physics of acoustics in the context of hearing conservation. These lectures will be used to teach people of all backgrounds the fundamental concepts involved in acoustical physics so they might be better aware of their own and others auditory health in and out of the work place, and, in the case of payload developers, to design and build more quiet science experiments for the ISS. Even though it may not seem as such, this project is precisely what I am learning to do as a student of the Cleveland Institute of Art's Medical Illustration Department. From my perspective, this project is about taking technical information and translating it into terms that anyone, regardless of background, can understand.

Automated Noise Calibration System (VT-1000)

This paper details an automated Noise Source calibration system in development at Jet Propulsion Laboratory, California Institute of Technology (JPL). The paper begins with a discussion on Noise Figure and Excess Noise Ratio (ENR) theory, fundamentals and governing equations. As part of the fundamentals is a discussion of the system’s use of the Y-factor method to obtain accurate measurements of the Unit Under Test (UUT), and how these measurements are compared against a known ENR standard to obtain the UUT’s ENR values. There is also an in-depth discussion on uncertainty quantification for Noise Source system calibrations. The architecture of the automated calibration system is provided, which includes both the system’s hardware and software configuration. The software is written in Python 3, and provides the user detailed instruction on how to proceed, including step-by-step connection requirements. This system automates much of the measurement process, including real-time uncertainty quantification and report generation, as well as real-time feedback to the user to allow intervention if necessary. The system takes advantage of a database of results from previous measurements to compare calibration history of the ENR measurements. The automated system presented here operates over a frequency range from 10 MHz to 50 GHz, and has shown substantial time savings over traditional manual methods of performing this calibration.

The AI-Base NDA Catalog

The project objective was to create a catalog of NDA capabilities so that as future challenges emerge, potential solutions can be quickly identified. The initial direction was to create a custom database where we would manually add various NDA technologies. During the year, LANL leadership heavily embraced AI tools and established LANL’s Enterprise ChatGPT license. To align with this vision, instead of a database we created a custom GPT to achieve the same capability. We provided a series of references on NDA technologies, the most comprehensive of which is the 2024 “PANDA manual” which is a 700-page textbook. A custom GPT is a semi-isolated version of OpenAI’s GPT model that can be tailored to specific tasks with context documents and instructions. Anyone with a LANL ChatGPT Enterprise account can access the NDA Catalog. Since the GPT exists on the green network, only non-sensitive questions may be asked. The Catalog can be used by simply asking questions in conversational English. We have found the Catalog to be quite accurate, even for heavily technical, complex queries. The Catalog allows the user to describe a measurement problem and it will respond with potential technology solutions.

Development and Demonstration of a Self-Calibrating Pseudolite Array for Task Level Control of a Planetary Rover

Pseudolites can extend the availability of GPS-type positioning systems to a wide range of applications not possible with satellite-only GPS. One such application is Mars exploration, where the centimeter-level accuracy and high repeatability of CDGPS would make it attractive for rover positioning during autonomous exploration, sample collection, and habitat construction if it were available. Pseudolites distributed on the surface would allow multiple rovers and/or astronauts to share a common navigational reference. This would help enable cooperation for complicated science tasks, reducing the need for instructions from Earth and increasing the likelihood of mission success. Conventional GPS Pseudolite arrays require that the devices be pre-calibrated through a Survey of their locations, typically to sub-centimeter accuracy. This is a problematic task for robots on the surface of another planet. By using the GPS signals that the Pseudolites broadcast, however, it is possible to have the array self-survey its own relative locations, creating a SelfCalibrating Pseudolite Array (SCPA). This requires the use of GPS transceivers instead of standard pseudolites. Surveying can be done either at carrier- or code-phase levels. An overview of SCPA capabilities, system requirements, and self-calibration algorithms is presented in another work. The Aerospace Robotics Laboratory at Statif0id has developed a fully operational prototype SCPA. The array is able to determine the range between any two transceivers with either code- or carrier-phase accuracy, and uses this inter-transceiver ranging to determine the at-ray geometry. This paper presents results from field tests conducted at Stanford University demonstrating the accuracy of inter-transceiver ranging and its viability and utility for array localization, and shows how transceiver motion may be utilized to refine the array estimate by accurately determining carrier-phase integers and line biases. It also summarizes the overall system requirements and architecture, and describes the hardware and software used in the prototype system.

Process Engineering Technology Center Initiative

NASA's Kennedy Space Center (KSC) is developing as a world-class Spaceport Technology Center (STC). From a process engineering (PE) perspective, the facilities used for flight hardware processing at KSC are NASA's premier factories. The products of these factories are safe, successful shuttle and expendable vehicle launches carrying state-of-the-art payloads. PE is devoted to process design, process management, and process improvement, rather than product design. PE also emphasizes the relationships of workers with systems and processes. Thus, it is difficult to speak of having a laboratory for PE at KSC because the entire facility is practically a laboratory when observed from a macro level perspective. However, it becomes necessary, at times, to show and display how KSC has benefited from PE and how KSC has contributed to the development of PE; hence, it has been proposed that a Process Engineering Technology Center (PETC) be developed to offer a place with a centralized focus on PE projects, and a place where KSC's PE capabilities can be showcased, and a venue where new Process Engineering technologies can be investigated and tested. Graphics for showcasing PE capabilities have been designed, and two initial test beds for PE technology research have been identified. Specifically, one test bed will look into the use of wearable computers with head mounted displays to deliver work instructions; the other test bed will look into developing simulation models that can be assembled into one to create a hierarchical model.

Molecular basis and biological relevance of bacterial and plant pinoresinol/lariciresinol reductase specificities

A bacterial pinoresinol/lariciresinol reductase (PLR) homolog named NrPinZ was obtained from a Novosphingobium rhizosphaerae sp. LY bacterial strain, with NrPinZ being part of its 5-step biochemical system catabolizing pinoresinol into coniferyl aldehyde and vanillin. Recombinant NrPinZ reduces racemic 8–8′ furanofuran lignans [(±)-pinoresinols, medioresinols, and syringaresinols] with similar overall catalytic efficiencies. In those reductions, only one of the two furan ring systems is reduced. Two other bacterial PLR homologs, NaPinZ and SlPinZ, from N. aromaticivorans F199 and Sphingobium lignivorans SYK-6, respectively, had comparable substrate versatilities and catalytic efficacies. Plant PLR homologs, by comparison, are either enantiospecific, enantioselective, or variants thereof, being able to reduce either one or both furan rings. For example, a recombinant enantioselective PLR (PLR_Tp2) from western red cedar (Thuja plicata) preferentially reduces both (+)-pinoresinol furan rings to afford (−)-secoisolariciresinol. BoltZ-2 modeling of NrPinZ and PLR_Tp2, together with substrate docking of (+)- and (−)-pinoresinols, medioresinols, and syringaresinols, was very instructive. The NrPinZ active site P1/P2 sub-pockets allow for both racemic forms to be catabolized. Conversely, the smaller P1 pocket in PLR_Tp2 preferentially positions (+)-pinoresinol for downstream metabolism into (−)-secoisolariciresinol, thereby providing a biochemical explanation for the different stereochemical outcomes. NrPinZ, NaPinZ, and SlPinZ, catalyzing substrate versatile catabolism of both racemic forms, may have important ramifications for gymnosperm and angiosperm lignin and lignan biodegradation, including its evolutionary significance and potential in enzyme engineering.

SIMD Programming for the SMASH Shock Physics Code

Many modern CPUs that are available to the NNSA as mission computing resources support vector instruction sets. Making good use of vector instructions, referred to as “vectorization”, is often critical to getting the best performance from these CPUs. While other codes choose to rely on compiler auto-vectorization, the SMASH shock physics code chooses to leverage APIs for explicit vectorization. These APIs are similar to directly calling the CPU vendor’s vector intrinsics, with the additional benefit of being vendor-agnostic. This document explains what the SIMD APIs are and how to use them in developing SMASH.

Location Identifiers, Metadata, and Map for Field Measurements at the East-Taylor Watershed Community Observatory, Colorado, USA (Version 3.3)

This dataset contains identifiers, metadata, and a map of the locations where field measurements have been conducted at the East-Taylor Watershed Community Observatory located in the Upper Colorado River Basin, United States. This is version 3.3 of the dataset and replaces the prior version 3.2 (see below for details on changes between the versions). Dataset description: The East River-Taylor Watershed is the primary field site of the Watershed Function Scientific Focus Area (WFSFA) and the Rocky Mountain Biological Laboratory. Researchers from several institutions generate highly diverse hydrological, biogeochemical, climate, vegetation, geological, remote sensing, and model data at the East-Taylor Watershed in collaboration with the WFSFA. Thus, the purpose of this dataset is to maintain an inventory of the field locations and instrumentation to provide information on the field activities in the East-Taylor Watershed and coordinate data collected across different locations, researchers, and institutions. The dataset contains (1) a README file with information on the various files, (2) three csv files describing the metadata collected for each surface point location, plot and region registered with the WFSFA, (3) csv files with metadata and contact information for each surface point location registered with the WFSFA, (4) a csv file with with metadata and contact information for plots, (5) a csv file with metadata for geographic regions and sub-regions within the watershed, (6) a compiled xlsx file with all the data and metadata which can be opened in Microsoft Excel, (7) a kml map of the locations plotted in the watershed which can be opened in Google Earth, (8) a jpg image of the kml map which can be viewed in any photo viewer, and (9) a zipped file with the registration templates used by the SFA team to collect location metadata. The zipped template file contains two csv files with the blank templates (point and plot), two csv files with instructions for filling out the location templates, and one compiled xlsx file with the instructions and blank templates together. Additionally, the templates in the xlsx include drop down validation for any controlled metadata fields. Persistent location identifiers (Location_ID) are determined by the WFSFA data management team and are used to track data and samples across locations. Dataset uses: This location metadata is used to update the Watershed SFA’s publicly accessible Field Information Portal (an interactive field sampling metadata exploration tool; https://wfsfa-data.lbl.gov/watershed/), the kml map file included in this dataset, and other data management tools internal to the Watershed SFA team. Version Information: The latest version of this dataset publication is version 3.3. This version contains 167 new point locations, 1 new plot, and 2 new geographic regions. Overall, there are a total of 1439 point locations, 75 plots, and 54 geographic regions. Additionally, the kml map of locations and image now includes two boundaries (Upper Ohio Creek (UO) and Carbon Creek (CA)) outside of the East River watershed (USGS HUC-10) and accompanying stream network that represents areas of focus. Refer to methods for further details on the version history. This dataset will be updated on a periodic basis with new measurement location information. Researchers interested in having their East-Taylor Watershed measurement locations added to this list should reach out to the WFSFA data management team at wfsfa-data@googlegroups.com.
