Scoping Thermal Response Calculations of RNS Waste During Transport to and Disposal at the WIPP

Sandia National Laboratories (SNL) was contracted by the United States Department of Energy Environmental Management (DOE-EM), Los Alamos Field Office to perform mechanical and thermal scoping calculations as part of a study seeking to understand the ignitability risk of the Remediated Nitrate Salts (RNS) waste drums during transportation from the Waste Control Specialists (WCS) facility to Waste Isolation Pilot Plant (WIPP) and permanent disposal of the waste at WIPP. The scoping thermal simulations described in this report pertain to thermal calculations performed with a packaging system consisting of one Standard Waste Box (SWB) loaded with drums placed inside a Standard Large Box 2 (SLB2). During transportation, the SLB2 is inside Transuranic Package Transporter Model III (TRUPACT-III), which provides the third layer of the packaging. Once at the WIPP, it is assumed the SLB2 is extracted from the TRUPACT-III and maintained above ground, and then subsequently placed underground for permanent disposal. In these proposed configurations, the space between the SLB2 and the SWB is always filled by a layer of insulation consisting of air-filled glass microbubbles except for the bottom which rests directly on the SLB2. The thermal scoping calculations described in this report specifically address whether the introduction of external heat inputs, combined with the contributions from the internally generated radiolytic decay heat and chemical reactions, lead to an unstable thermal state during the time of its movement and placement in the permanent disposal location. The external heat inputs are of two forms: 1) ambient thermal irradiation (e.g., solar and ambient storage/disposal temperatures) and 2) accident-induced fire. Three scoping calculation scenarios were derived as representative, conservative scenarios: 1A) TRUPACT-III transient transportation, 1B) SLB2 48-hour outdoor storage with solar radiation, and 2) fully-engulfing fire during SLB2 handling or emplacement following a steady-state analysis in a 38 °C environment. All the simulated scenarios are conservative relative to the operational conditions expected for handling the waste package during transportation and placement in the WIPP underground disposal unit. The predictions obtained from simulating the three exposure scenarios revealed that adding the SLB2 and the air-filled glass microbubbles to the transport and storage/disposal configurations provides additional thermal protection of the drums beyond what the SWB provides alone, both during long-term above ground insolation and underground during a fire accident. Under the current transportation/storage/disposal concepts, the degree of protection provided by the packaging concept is sufficient to prevent the waste from being ignitable. The simulation results demonstrate that there is adequate margin to safely transport and place the RNS waste from WCS to the WIPP under the current operational concept.

The molecular architecture distinctions between compression, opposite and normal wood of Pinus radiata

In gymnosperms compression wood is a specialised type of structural cell wall formed in response to biomechanical stresses. The differences in terms of gross structure, ultrastructure and chemistry are well-known. However, the differences between compression wood, normal wood, and opposite wood regarding the arrangements and interactions of the various polymers and water within their cell walls still needs to be established. The analysis of 13 C-labelled Pinus radiata by solid-state NMR spectroscopy and other complementary techniques revealed several new aspects of compression and opposite wood molecular architecture. Compared to normal wood, compression wood has a lower water content, its overall nanoporosity is reduced, and the water and matrix polymers have a lower molecular mobility. Galactan, which is a specific marker of compression wood, is broadly distributed within the cell wall, disordered, and not aligned with cellulose, and is found to be in close proximity to xylan. Dehydroabietic acid (a resin acid) is immobilised and close to the H-lignin only in compression wood. Although the overall molecular mobility of normal wood and opposite wood are similar, opposite wood has different arabinose conformations, a large increase in the amount of chain ends, contains significantly more galactan and has additional unassigned mobile components highlighting the different molecular arrangement of cell wall polymers in opposite and normal wood.

Enhancing characterization of organic nitrogen components in aerosols and droplets using high-resolution aerosol mass spectrometry

This study aims to enhance the understanding and application of the Aerodyne high-resolution aerosol mass spectrometer (HR-AMS) for comprehensive characterization of organic nitrogen (ON) compounds in aerosol particles and atmospheric droplets. To achieve this, we analyzed seventy-five N-containing organic compounds, representing a diverse range of ambient ON types, including amines, amides, amino acids, N-heterocycles, protein, and humic acids. Our results show that ON compounds can produce significant levels of NH x + and NO x + ion fragments, which are typically recognized as ions representative of inorganic nitrogen species. We also discovered the presence of CH 2 N + at m/z = 28.0187, an ion fragment that is rarely quantified in ambient datasets due to substantial interference from air-related N 2 + . As a result, we determined that an updated calibration factor of 0.79 is necessary to accurately quantify ON content using aerosol mass spectrometry. We also assessed the relative ionization efficiencies (RIEs) for different ON species and found that the average RIE of ON compounds (1.52 ± 0.58) aligns with the commonly used default value of 1.40 for organic aerosol (OA). Moreover, through a careful examination of the HR-AMS mass spectral features of various ON types, we propose fingerprint ion series that can aid the ON speciation analysis. The presence of C n H 2n+2 N + ions is closely linked with amines, with CH 4 N + indicating primary amines, C 2 H 6 N + suggesting secondary amines, and C 3 H 8 N + representing tertiary amines. C n H 2n NO + ions (especially for n values of 1–4) are very likely derived from amides. The co-existence of three ions, C 2 H 4 NO 2 + , C 2 H 3 NO + , and CH 4 NO + , serves as an indicator for the presence of amino acids. Additionally, the presence of C x H y N 2 + ions indicates the occurrence of 2N-heterocyclic compounds. Notably, an elevated abundance of NH 4 + is a distinct signature for amines and amino acids, as inorganic ammonium salts produce only negligible amounts of NH 4 + in HR-AMS. Finally, we quantified the ON contents in submicron particles (PM 1 ) and fog waters in Fresno, California and PM 1 in New York City (NYC). Our results revealed the substantial presence of amino compounds in both Fresno and NYC aerosols, whereas concurrently collected fog waters contained a broader range of ON species, including N-containing aromatic heterocycle (e.g., imidazoles) and amides. These findings highlight the significant potential of employing the widespread HR-AMS measurements of ambient aerosols and droplets to enhance our understanding of the sources, transformation processes, and environmental impacts associated with ON compounds in the atmosphere.

Analysis of meiosis in Pristionchus pacificus reveals plasticity in homolog pairing and synapsis in the nematode lineage

Meiosis is conserved across eukaryotes yet varies in the details of its execution. Here we describe a new comparative model system for molecular analysis of meiosis, the nematode Pristionchus pacificus, a distant relative of the widely studied model organism Caenorhabditis elegans. P. pacificus shares many anatomical and other features that facilitate analysis of meiosis in C. elegans. However, while C. elegans has lost the meiosis-specific recombinase Dmc1 and evolved a recombination-independent mechanism to synapse its chromosomes, P. pacificus expresses both DMC-1 and RAD-51. We find that SPO-11 and DMC-1 are required for stable homolog pairing, synapsis, and crossover formation, while RAD-51 is dispensable for these key meiotic processes. RAD-51 and DMC-1 localize sequentially to chromosomes during meiotic prophase and show nonoverlapping functions. We also present a new genetic map for P. pacificus that reveals a crossover landscape very similar to that of C. elegans, despite marked divergence in the regulation of synapsis and crossing-over between these lineages.

Performance of methods for SARS-CoV-2 variant detection and abundance estimation within mixed population samples

The accurate identification of SARS-CoV-2 (SC2) variants and estimation of their abundance in mixed population samples (e.g., air or wastewater) is imperative for successful surveillance of community level trends. Assessing the performance of SC2 variant composition estimators (VCEs) should improve our confidence in public health decision making. Here, we introduce a linear regression based VCE and compare its performance to four other VCEs: two re-purposed DNA sequence read classifiers (Kallisto and Kraken2), a maximum-likelihood based method (Lineage deComposition for Sars-Cov-2 pooled samples (LCS)), and a regression based method (Freyja). We simulated DNA sequence datasets of known variant composition from both Illumina and Oxford Nanopore Technologies (ONT) platforms and assessed the performance of each VCE. We also evaluated VCEs performance using publicly available empirical wastewater samples collected for SC2 surveillance efforts. Bioinformatic analyses were performed with a custom NextFlow workflow (C-WAP, CFSAN Wastewater Analysis Pipeline). Relative root mean squared error (RRMSE) was used as a measure of performance with respect to the known abundance and concordance correlation coefficient (CCC) was used to measure agreement between pairs of estimators. Based on our results from simulated data, Kallisto was the most accurate estimator as it had the lowest RRMSE, followed by Freyja. Kallisto and Freyja had the most similar predictions, reflected by the highest CCC metrics. We also found that accuracy was platform and amplicon panel dependent. For example, the accuracy of Freyja was significantly higher with Illumina data compared to ONT data; performance of Kallisto was best with ARTICv4. However, when analyzing empirical data there was poor agreement among methods and variations in the number of variants detected (e.g., Freyja ARTICv4 had a mean of 2.2 variants while Kallisto ARTICv4 had a mean of 10.1 variants). This work provides an understanding of the differences in performance of a number of VCEs and how accurate they are in capturing the relative abundance of SC2 variants within a mixed sample (e.g., wastewater). Such information should help officials gauge the confidence they can have in such data for informing public health decisions.

Comparison of Irradiated and Unirradiated Graphite Oxidation Performance

This work examines the oxidation behavior of NBG-25 graphite using irradiated specimens and (not irradiated) companion specimens from the Advanced Graphite Creep (AGC) Experiment. Irradiated and companion specimens were quartered, split into four small samples, to enable four oxidation test runs for each (0.5 inch diameter by 0.25 inch tall) piggyback button obtained from the AGC Experiment inventory. These split samples were oxidized in air in a thermogravimetric analyzer (TGA) and benchmarked against observations with separately sourced same-grade specimens of three geometries oxidized either in the TGA or in a vertical furnace built and operated to satisfy the specifications of ASTM D7542. The study considers both irradiation damage and relief of damage by thermal annealing. A range of isothermal oxidation temperatures were tested for specimens exposed to a similar irradiation environment, nominally 6.5 dpa at 650°C. To assess the dose dependency of observed oxidation behavior, specimens with a range of irradiation exposures (up to 6.8 dpa) were tested at the single oxidation temperature of 650°C. In the conventional analysis (rate determined over the 5-10% mass loss range) any annealing effects appear to be negligible, while irradiation to ~6.5 dpa may double or triple the subsequent oxidation rate. However, examination of rate with extent of reaction (over incremental ranges from initial onset up to 5% mass loss) illustrates that (at least for ~6.5 dpa) irradiation initially inhibits oxidation. Slower rates of oxidation than companion split samples are clearly indicated across all oxidation temperatures tested up to ~0.5% mass loss. Over the range of 0.5-1% mass loss, regardless of normalization strategy, there is no statistically meaningful difference in oxidation rate. However, beyond 0.5% mass loss oxidation of the irradiated sample becomes progressively faster than the companion sample (up to the 10% mass loss level observed).

M&C 2025: Application of Fuel Depletion Chain Simplification to Experiment Analysis in the Advanced Test Reactor

Irradiation experiment analysis can be informed by high-fidelity reactor engineering depletion results, but it comes at a computational cost. Applying depletion chain simplification to the Advanced Test Reactor driver fuel before performing experiment depletions permits their programmatic parameters to be calculated faster, with a small penalty to accuracy. This work contrasts the results of two irradiation experiments with different neutronic characteristics and provides general recommendations.

Chromosome-level assembly and analysis of Camelina neglecta : a novel diploid model for Camelina biotechnology research

Camelina neglecta is a new diploid Brassicaceae species, which has great research value because of its close relationship with the hexaploid oilseed crop Camelina sativa. Here, we report a chromosome-level assembly of C. neglecta with a total length of 210 Mb. By adopting PacBio sequencing and Hi-C technology, the C. neglecta genome was assembled into 6 chromosomes with scaffold N50 of 29.62 Mb. C. neglecta has undergone the whole-genome triplication (γ) shared among eudicots and two whole-genome duplications (α and β) shared by crucifers, but it has not undergone a specific whole-genome duplication event. By synteny analysis between C. neglecta and C. sativa, we successfully used the method of calculating Ks to distinguish the three subgenomes of C. sativa and determined that C. neglecta was closest to the first subgenome (SG1) of C. sativa. Further, transcriptomic analysis revealed the key genes associated with seed oil biosynthesis and its transcriptional regulation, including SAD, FAD2, FAD3, FAE1, ABI3, WRI1 and FUS3 displaying high expression levels in C. neglecta seeds. The high representability of C. neglecta as a model species for Camelina-based biotechnology research has been demonstrated for the first time. In particular, floral Agrobacterium tumefaciens infiltration-based transformation of C. neglecta, leading to overexpression of CvLPAT2, CpDGAT1 and CvFatB1 transgenes, was demonstrated for medium-chain fatty acid accumulation in C. neglecta seed oil. This study provides an important genomic resource and establishes C. neglecta as a new model for oilseed biotechnology research.

The challenges of electrolytic valorization of carbon dioxide

Electroreduction of carbon dioxide is an enabling technology that can produce valuable chemicals, such as C 1 (for example, formic acid and carbon monoxide) and C 2 chemicals (for example, ethylene and ethanol), with a minimal or even negative carbon footprint. Now, a techno-economic analysis shows that only the C 1 products can achieve competitive prices, while substantial improvements in process economics are needed for C 2 .

3D Nanotomography of calcium silicate hydrates by transmission electron microscopy

Calcium silicate hydrate (C-S-H), is the principal hydration product of Portland cement that mainly contributes to the physical and mechanical properties of concrete. This paper aims to investigate the three-dimensional structure of C-S-H with Ca/Si ratios of 1.0 and 1.6 at the nanoscale using electron tomography. The 3D reconstructions and selected region of interest analysis confirm that the morphology of both C-S-H materials are foil-like structures. Additionally, the difference between the two materials is the density of elongated structures. C-S-H with Ca/Si ratio 1.6 is clearly composed of denser particles compared to the other C-S-H material due to overlapping of the foil-like structure. Pore analysis shows that C-S-H 1.0 and C-S-H 1.6 have porosities 69.2% and 49.8% respectively. Pore size distribution also reveals that C-S-H 1.0 has pore size range between 0-250 nm and C-S-H 1.6 between 0-100 nm. The pore network's size of C-S-H 1.0 is significantly larger than 1.6. This study illustrates the capability of using electron tomography to determine the 3D nanoscale structure of cementitious products and to distinguish between C-S-H 1.0 and 1.6.

New soil carbon sequestration with nitrogen enrichment: a meta-analysis

Background and aims: Through agriculture and industry, humans are increasing the deposition and availability of nitrogen (N) in ecosystems worldwide. Carbon (C) isotope tracers provide useful insights into soil C dynamics, as they allow to study soil C pools of different ages. In this study we evaluated to what extent N enrichment affects soil C dynamics in experiments that applied C isotope tracers. Methods: Using meta-analysis, we synthesized data from 35 published papers. We made a distinction between “new C” and “old C” stocks, i.e., soil C derived from plant C input since the start of the isotopic enrichment, or unlabeled, pre-existing soil C. Results: Averaged across studies, N addition increased new soil C stocks (+30.3%), total soil C stocks (+6.1%) and soil C input proxies (+30.7%). Although N addition had no overall, average, effect on old soil C stocks and old soil C respiration, old soil C stocks increased with the amount of N added and respiration of old soil C declined. Nitrogen-induced effects on new soil C and soil C input both decreased with the amount of extraneous N added in control treatments. Conclusion: Although our findings require additional confirmation from long-term field experiments, our analysis provides isotopic evidence that N addition stimulates soil C storage both by increasing soil C input and (at high N rates) by decreasing decomposition of old soil C. Furthermore, we demonstrate that the widely reported saturating response of plant growth to N enrichment also applies to new soil C storage.

The anaerobic fungus Caecomyces churrovis produces H2 via a non-3 bifurcating NADH-dependent enzyme complex

Anaerobic fungi (AF) decompose lignocellulose-based biomass into fermentable sugars through the production of powerful biomass-degrading enzymes. AF are unusual among fungi in that they generate energy via hydrogenosomes, which are also associated with the release of H2 though yet unknown metabolic mechanisms. In particular, it remains unclear how NAD(P)+ is regenerated within hydrogenosomes and how H2 is formed. Here, we reveal the molecular mechanism for hydrogenosomal H2 production in the AF strain C. churrovis by combining genomic search, proteomic analysis, and enzymology. Our enzyme assays on the large organelle fraction of C. churrovis revealed the activity of H2:NAD+ oxidoreductase but not pyruvate:ferredoxin oxidoreductase activity. We identified genes encoding [FeFe] hydrogenase (Hyd) and NADH dehydrogenase subunits E and F (NuoE, NuoF) in C. churrovis, and confirmed their expression in the isolated hydrogenosomal fractions by proteomic analysis. Combining the individually purified proteins, we found that the assay system consisting of Hyd-Strep and NuoEF-Strep reduced NAD+ with H2. Furthermore, this system formed H2 directly from NADH independent of ferredoxin, functioning as a non-bifurcating NADH-dependent enzyme rather than an electron-bifurcating enzyme. We identified homologs of hydrogenosomal NuoE, NuoF, and Hyd in many other AF, indicating this pathway is widely conserved among the early-branching AF. This work demonstrates the existence of a non-bifurcating NADH-dependent enzyme complex in eukaryotes. Moreover, this complex could be a target for controlling AF H2 production and altering fungal metabolism.

The DECADE cosmic shear project IV: cosmological constraints from 107 million galaxies across 5,400 deg$^2$ of the sky

We present cosmological constraints from the Dark Energy Camera All Data Everywhere (DECADE) cosmic shear analysis. This work uses shape measurements for 107 million galaxies measured through Dark Energy Camera (DECam) imaging of $5,\!412$ deg$^2$ of sky that is outside the Dark Energy Survey (DES) footprint. We derive constraints on the cosmological parameters $S_8 = 0.791^{+0.027}_{-0.032}$ and $Ω_{\rm m} =0.269^{+0.034}_{-0.050}$ for the $Λ$CDM model, which are consistent with those from other weak lensing surveys and from the cosmic microwave background. We combine our results with cosmic shear results from DES Y3 at the likelihood level, since the two datasets span independent areas on the sky. The combined measurements, which cover $\approx\! 10,\!000$ deg$^2$, prefer $S_8 = 0.791 \pm 0.023$ and $Ω_{\rm m} = 0.277^{+0.034}_{-0.046}$ under the $Λ$CDM model. These results are the culmination of a series of rigorous studies that characterize and validate the DECADE dataset and the associated analysis methodologies (Anbajagane et. al 2025a,b,c). Overall, the DECADE project demonstrates that the cosmic shear analysis methods employed in Stage-III weak lensing surveys can provide robust cosmological constraints for fairly inhomogeneous datasets. This opens the possibility of using data that have been previously categorized as ``unusable'' for cosmic shear analyses, thereby increasing the statistical power of upcoming weak lensing surveys.

Solvated Nickel Complexes as Stoichiometric and Catalytic Perfluoroalkylation Agents**

Abstract The acetonitrile‐solvated [(MeCN)Ni(C 2 F 5 ) 3 ] − was prepared in order to compare and contrast its reactivity with the known [(MeCN)Ni(CF 3 ) 3 ] − towards organic electrophiles. Both [(MeCN)Ni(CF 3 ) 3 ] − and [(MeCN)Ni(C 2 F 5 ) 3 ] − successfully react with aryl iodonium and diazonium salts as well as alkynyl iodonium salts to give fluoroalkylated organic products. Electrochemical analysis of [(MeCN)Ni II (C 2 F 5 ) 3 ] − suggests that, upon electro‐oxidation to [(MeCN) n Ni III (C 2 F 5 ) 3 ], reductive homolysis of a perfluoroethyl radical occurs, with the concomitant formation of [(MeCN) 2 Ni II (C 2 F 5 ) 2 ]. Catalytic C−H trifluoromethylations of electron‐rich arenes were successfully achieved using either [(MeCN)Ni(CF 3 ) 3 ] − or the related [Ni(CF 3 ) 4 ] 2− . Stoichiometric reactions of the solvated nickel complexes reveal that “ligandless” nickel is exceptionally capable of serving as reservoir of CF 3 groups under catalytically relevant conditions.

Anodic Interfacial Evolution in Extremely Fast Charged Lithium-Ion Batteries

Interfacial reaction mechanisms at the anode/separator interface play a central role in the performance and safety of lithium-ion batteries during fast charging. We report a mechanistic study on the evolution and interactions of the aging mechanisms at the anode/separator interface in lithium cobalt oxide/graphite pouch cells charged with variable charging rates (1–6C) over 10 cycles. In situ electrochemical measurements, including voltage relaxation, Coulombic efficiency, and direct current internal resistance, indicated an incremental lithium loss until the C rates were ≤5C. A substantial capacity fade is observed in the first few cycles of fast charging, but the magnitude of capacity fade progressively diminishes with the number of cycles, indicating a suppression in the lithium deposition mechanism. Post-mortem film thickness, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) analyses were performed to elucidate the evolution of electrolyte decomposition, the solid–electrolyte interface (SEI), lithium plating, and film fracture mechanisms with C rate. XPS measurements confirmed an increasing lithium concentration in an SEI film with an increase in the C rate. SEM images showed a growth of dendritic lithium on the anode surface from 1C to 3C. Precrack formation leading to an interfacial film fracture was observed at higher C rates. Furthermore, a differential analysis of the discharge capacity indicated a possible two-phase delithiation from the anode and reduced cathodic lithiation due to lithium loss at high C rates.
