Three-dimensional dispersion in the type-II Dirac semimetals PtTe 2 and PdTe 2 revealed through circular dichroism in angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy

PtTe 2 and PdTe 2 are among the first transition metal dichalcogenides that were predicted to host type-II Dirac fermions, exotic particles prohibited in free space. These materials are layered and air stable, which makes them top candidates for technological applications that take advantage of their anisotropic magnetotransport properties. Here, in this work, we provide a detailed characterization of the electronic structure of PtTe 2 and PdTe 2 using angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES) and density functional theory calculations, offering an alternative interpretation for one of the Dirac-like dispersions in these materials. Through the use of circularly polarized light, we report a different behavior of such dispersion in PdTe 2 compared to PtTe 2 , that we relate to a symmetry analysis of the dipole matrix element. Such analysis reveals a link between the observed circular dichroism and the different momentum-dependent terms in the dispersion of these two compounds, despite their close similarity in crystal structure. Additionally, our data show a clear difference in the circular dichroic signal for the type-II Dirac cones characteristic of these materials, compared to their topologically protected surface states. Our paper provides a useful reference for the ARPES characterization of other transition metal dichalcogenides with topological properties and illustrates the use of circular dichroism as a guide to identify the topological character and attributes of two otherwise equivalent band dispersions.

Using Machine Learning to Predict Cloud Turbulent Entrainment–Mixing Processes

Different turbulent entrainment–mixing mechanisms between clouds and environment are essential to cloud–related processes; however, accurate representation of entrainment–mixing in weather/climate models still poses a challenge. This study exploits the use of machine learning (ML) to address this challenge. Four ML (Light Gradient Boosting Machine [LGB], eXtreme Gradient Boosting, Random Forest, and Support Vector Regression) are examined and compared. It is found that LGB performs best, and thus is selected to understand the impact of entrainment–mixing on microphysics using simulation data from Explicit Mixing Parcel Model. Compared with traditional parameterizations, the trained LGB provides more accurate microphysical properties (number concentration and cloud droplet spectral dispersion). The partial dependences of predicted microphysics on features exhibit a strong alignment with physical mechanisms and expectations, as determined by the interpreting method, thus overcoming the limitations of the “black box” scheme. The underlying mechanisms are that the smaller number concentration and larger spectral dispersion correspond to more inhomogeneous entrainment–mixing. Specifically, number concentration after entrainment–mixing is positively correlated with adiabatic number concentration and liquid water content affected by entrainment–mixing, and inversely correlated with adiabatic volume mean radius. Spectral dispersion after entrainment–mixing is negatively correlated with liquid water content affected by entrainment–mixing, turbulent dissipation rate and relative humidity of entrained air. Sensitivity analysis further suggests that number concentration is mainly determined by cloud microphysical properties whereas spectral dispersion is influenced by both cloud microphysical properties and environmental variables. The results indicate that the LGB scheme has the potential to enhance the representation of entrainment–mixing in weather/climate models.

Hydrogen bonds and dispersion forces serving as molecular locks for tailored Group 11 bis(amidine) complexes

A flexible polydentate bis(amidine) ligand LH 2 , LH 2 = {CH 2 NH( t Bu)C=N-2-(6-MePy)} 2 , operates as a molecular lock for various coinage metal fragments and forms the dinuclear complexes [LH 2 (MCl) 2 ], M = Cu (1), Au (2), the coordination polymer [{(LH 2 ) 2 (py) 2 (AgCl) 3 }(py) 3 ] n (3), and the dimesityl-digold complex [LH 2 (AuMes) 2 ] (4) by formal insertion of MR fragments (M = Cu, Ag, Au; R = Cl, Mes) into the N–H∙∙∙N hydrogen bonds of LH 2 in yields of 43–95%. Complexes 1, 2, and 4 adopt C 2 -symmetrical structures in the solid state featuring two interconnected 11-membered rings that are locked by two intramolecular N–H∙∙∙R–M hydrogen bonds. QTAIM analyses of the computational geometry-optimized structures 1a, 2a, and 4a reveal 13, 11, and 22 additional bond critical points, respectively, all of which are related to weak intramolecular attractive interactions, predominantly representing dispersion forces, contributing to the conformational stabilization of the C2-symmetrical stereoisomers in the solid state. Variable-temperature 1 H NMR spectroscopy in combination with DFT calculations indicate a dynamic conformational interconversion between two C 2 -symmetrical ground state structures in solution (ΔG ‡ c = 11.1–13.8 kcal mol –1 ), which is accompanied by the formation of an intermediate possessing C i symmetry that retains the hydrogen bonds.

Cation Migration and LSCF/SDC Decomposition Related to Long-Term Operation Mode as Revealed by Electron Microscopy

This study utilized energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) in a scanning electron microscope (SEM) and a scanning transmission electron microscope (STEM) in order to track cation migration and related particle decomposition for air electrode components of solid oxide cells. The influence of a Sm-doped ceria (SDC) barrier layers was assessed for three operation modes (fuel cell, electrolysis, reversible) over long time periods (1000-1500 hours). Composition profiles across air electrode/electrolyte interfaces indicated negligible accumulation of La/Sr cations to the yttria-stabilized zirconia (YSZ) electrolyte during operation. Instead, air electrode particles composed of SDC and/or La-Sr-Co-Fe-oxides (LSCF) exhibited decomposition by Sr evaporation and Sm migration to LSCF particle edges.

Restoration of weak localization in bilayer graphene by a molecular thin film

Quantum coherent effects can be probed in multilayer graphene through electronic transport measurements at low temperatures. In particular, bilayer graphene (BLG) is known to be susceptible to quantum interference corrections of the conductivity, presenting weak localization at all electronic densities, and dependent on different scattering mechanisms such as those related to the trigonal warping of the electron dispersion near the K and K′ valleys. Proximity effects with a molecular thin film influence these scattering mechanisms, which can be quantified through the known theory of magnetoconductance for BLG. Here, we present electronic transport measurements in a copper-phthalocyanine (CuPc) / BLG / hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) heterostructure that suggest the restoration of weak localization in BLG, associated to a reduction of trigonal warping effects, that are known to suppress weak localization in BLG. Additionally, we observe a charge transfer of 3.6×10 12 cm −2 from the BLG to the molecules, as well as a very small degradation of the mobility of the BLG/h-BN heterostructure upon the deposition of CuPc. The molecular arrangement of the CuPc thin film is characterized in a control sample through transmission electron microscopy, that we relate to the electronic transport results.

BayoTech Risk and Modeling Support of NM Gas Site

The BayoTech hydrogen generation system has been evaluated in terms of safety considerations at the NM Gas site. The consequence of a leak in different components in the system was evaluated in terms of plume dispersion and overpressure. Additionally, the likelihood of a leak scenario for different hydrogen components was identified. The worst-case plume dispersion cases, full-bore leaks, resulted in relatively large plumes. However, these cases were noted to be far less likely than the partial break cases that were evaluated. The partial break cases resulted in nearly negligible plume lengths. Similarly, the overpressure analysis of the full-bore break scenarios resulted in much larger overpressures than the partial break cases (which resulted in negligible overpressure at the lot line). There were several cases evaluated in the analysis that represented leak scenarios from both hydrogen and natural gas sources. Generally, the natural gas leak scenarios resulted in a smaller horizontal impact than that of hydrogen leaks. The worst-case consequence from a hydrogen leak resulted from the compressors, storage pods, or dispensing system. To consider the safety features that may isolate the leak, the consequence was evaluated at different times after the leak event to show the reduction of pressure. After 2 seconds, the plume dispersion from this event is contained within the perimeter of the site. The worst-case consequences show that the plume may disperse to adjacent facilities and to the street. When considering both likelihood and consequence, the risk may be considered low because the maximum frequency of a full-bore leak from any component within the hydrogen compound is 8.2 E-5/yr. This means that a full-bore leak is expected to occur less than once every 10,000 years. The risk can be further reduced by implementing mitigative countermeasures, such as CMU walls along the sides of the equipment compound. This would reduce the overall consequence of the worst-case dispersion scenarios (horizontal impact of plume). In terms of siting and safety analysis, the NFPA 2 code was used to provide a high-level evaluation of the current site plan. The most limiting equipment in terms of set-back distance are the compressors/storage units because of the high-pressure hydrogen. The site layout was evaluated for an acceptable location for the compression/storage unit based on NFPA 2 set-back distances. It is important to note that the NFPA 2 set-back distances consider both likelihood and consequence. This is important because the worst-case results evaluated herein also represent the least likely leak scenario. Other site-specific considerations were evaluated, including the parking shade structure with photovoltaic cells and refueling vehicles. These issues were dispositioned and determined to not present a safety risk.

Fast radio burst dispersion measure distribution as a probe of helium reionization

Fast radio burst (FRB) discoveries are occurring rapidly, with thousands expected from upcoming surveys. The dispersion measures (DM) observed for FRB include important information on cosmological distances and the ionization state of the universe from the redshift of emission until today. Rather than considering the DM–redshift relation, we investigate the statistical ensemble of the distribution of dispersion measures. Here, we explore the use of this abundance information, with and without redshift information, to probe helium reionization through simulated data to redshift z = 6. Carrying out Monte Carlo simulations of FRB survey samples, we examine the effect of different source redshift distributions, host galaxy models, sudden vs gradual reionization, and covariance with cosmological parameters on determination of helium reionization properties. We find that a fluence limited survey with 10 4 FRBs can discriminate different helium reionization histories at ~6σ using the DM-distribution of bursts, without redshift information (and ~10σ with redshifts).

Evidence for dispersing 1D Majorana channels in an iron-based superconductor

The possible realization of Majorana fermions as quasiparticle excitations in condensed-matter physics has created much excitement. Most studies have focused on Majorana bound states; however, propagating Majorana states with linear dispersion have also been predicted. Here, we report scanning tunneling spectroscopic measurements of crystalline domain walls (DWs) in FeSe 0.45 Te 0.55 . We located DWs across which the lattice structure shifts by half a unit cell. These DWs have a finite, flat density of states inside the superconducting gap, which is a hallmark of linearly dispersing modes in one dimension. This signature is absent in DWs in the related superconductor, FeSe, which is not in the topological phase. Our joint data are consistent with the observation of dispersing Majorana states at a π-phase shift DW in a proximitized topological material.

Chemical Vapor Deposition for Atomically Dispersed and Nitrogen Coordinated Single Metal Site Catalysts

Abstract Atomically dispersed and nitrogen coordinated single metal sites (M‐N‐C, M=Fe, Co, Ni, Mn) are the popular platinum group‐metal (PGM)‐free catalysts for many electrochemical reactions. Traditional wet‐chemistry catalyst synthesis often requires complex procedures with unsatisfied reproducibility and scalability. Here, we report a facile chemical vapor deposition (CVD) strategy to synthesize the promising M‐N‐C catalysts. The deposition of gaseous 2‐methylimidazole onto M‐doped ZnO substrates, followed by an in situ thermal activation, effectively generated single metal sites well dispersed into porous carbon. In particular, an optimal CVD‐derived Fe‐N‐C catalyst exclusively contains atomically dispersed FeN 4 sites with increased Fe loading relative to other catalysts from wet‐chemistry synthesis. The catalyst exhibited outstanding oxygen‐reduction activity in acidic electrolytes, which was further studied in proton‐exchange membrane fuel cells with encouraging performance.

Importance of residence-time control of industrial screw-conveying reactors: Application to dilute-acid hydrolysis of biomass

Horizontal screw reactors are utilized in biorefineries for acid-catalyzed hydrolysis of xylan, which is a multi-step chemical reaction requiring accurate residence-time control. However, it is difficult to obtain online analytical measurement of reactant species. In this work, a residence-time distribution (RTD) is exhibited whose characteristics influence species yields. Sensitivity of product yield to RTD was investigated to understand the relative importance of operating control vs. inherent reactor dispersion. We find that reactor operation using a commonly used theoretical residence-time relationship can result in substantial yield losses. Instead, a model that accounts for the actual reactor RTD provides much improved results. The dispersion caused by reactor conditions only slightly hinders achieving theoretical optimal xylose yield (less than 3% yield loss for coefficient of variation less than 0.35), provided a validated RTD model is used to target the desired mean residence-time. In contrast, neglecting to account for the RTD by using the simplistic theoretical calculation results in xylose yields that are as much as 16% lower than the theoretical maximum.

Transcritical diffuse-interface hydrodynamics of propellants in high-pressure combustors of chemical propulsion systems

Rocket engines and high-power new generations of gas-turbine jet engines and diesel engines oftentimes involve the injection of one or more reactants at subcritical temperatures into combustor environments at high pressures, and more particularly at pressures higher than those corresponding to the critical points of the individual components of the mixture, which typically range from 13 to 50 bars for most propellants. This class of trajectories in the thermodynamic space has been traditionally referred to as transcritical. However, the fundamental understanding of fuel atomization, vaporization, mixing, and combustion processes at such high pressures remains elusive. In particular, whereas fuel sprays are relatively well characterized at normal pressures, analyses of dispersion of fuel in high-pressure combustors are hindered by the limited experimental diagnostics and theoretical formulations available. The description of the thermodynamics of hydrocarbon-fueled mixtures employed in chemical propulsion systems is complex and involves mixing-induced phenomena, including an elevation of the critical point whereby the coexistence region of the mixture extends up to pressures much larger than the critical pressures of the individual components. As a result, interfaces subject to surface-tension forces may persist in multicomponent systems despite the high pressures, and may give rise to unexpected spray-like atomization dynamics that are otherwise absent in monocomponent systems above their critical point. In this article, the current understanding of this phenomenon is reviewed within the context of propulsion systems fueled by heavy hydrocarbons. Emphasis is made on analytical descriptions at mesoscopic scales of interest for computational fluid dynamics. In particular, a set of modifications of the constitutive laws in the Navier–Stokes equations for multicomponent flows, supplemented with a high-pressure equation of state and appropriate redefinitions of the thermodynamic potentials, are introduced in this work based on an extended version of the diffuse-interface theory of van der Waals. The resulting formulation involves revisited forms of the stress tensor and transport fluxes of heat and species, and enables a description of the mesoscopic volumetric effects induced by transcritical interfaces consistently with the thermodynamic phase diagram of the mixture at high pressures. Additionally, applications of the theory are illustrated in canonical problems, including dodecane/nitrogen transcritical interfaces in non-isothermal systems. The results indicate that a transcritical interface is formed between the propellant streams that persists downstream of the injection orifice over distances of the same order as the characteristic thermal-entrance length of the fuel stream. The transcritical interface vanishes at an edge that gives rise to a fully supercritical mixing layer.

Understanding the effect of density functional choice and van der Waals treatment on predicting the binding configuration, loading, and stability of amine-grafted metal organic frameworks

Metal organic frameworks (MOFs) are crystalline, three-dimensional structures with high surface areas and tunable porosities. Made from metal nodes connected by organic linkers, the exact properties of a given MOF are determined by node and linker choice. MOFs hold promise for numerous applications, including gas capture and storage. M2(4,4′-dioxidobiphenyl-3,3′-dicarboxylate)—henceforth simply M2(dobpdc), with M = Mg, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, or Zn—is regarded as one of the most promising structures for CO2 capture applications. Further modification of the MOF with diamines or tetramines can significantly boost gas species selectivity, a necessity for the ultra-dilute CO2 concentrations in the direct-air capture of CO2. There are countless potential diamines and tetramines, paving the way for a vast number of potential sorbents to be probed for CO2 adsorption properties. The number of amines and their configuration in the MOF pore are key drivers of CO2 adsorption capacity and kinetics, and so a validation of computational prediction of these quantities is required to suitably use computational methods in the discovery and screening of amine-functionalized sorbents. In this work, we study the predictive accuracy of density functional theory and related calculations on amine loading and configuration for one diamine and two tetramines. In particular, we explore the Perdew–Burke–Ernzerhof (PBE) functional and its formulation for solids (PBEsol) with and without the Grimme-D2 and Grimme-D3 pairwise corrections (PBE+D2/3 and PBEsol+D2/3), two revised PBE functionals with the Grimme-D2 and Grimme-D3 pairwise corrections (RPBE+D2/3 and revPBE+D2/3), and the nonlocal van der Waals correlation (vdW-DF2) functional. We also investigate a universal graph deep learning interatomic potential’s (M3GNet) predictive accuracy for loading and configuration. These results allow us to identify a useful screening procedure for configuration prediction that has a coarse component for quick evaluation and a higher accuracy component for detailed analysis. Our general observation is that the neural network-based potential can be used as a high-level and rapid screening tool, whereas PBEsol+D3 gives a completely qualitatively predictive picture across all systems studied, and can thus be used for high accuracy motif predictions. We close by briefly exploring the predictions of relative thermal stability for the different functionals and dispersion corrections.

BindingDB in 2024: a FAIR knowledgebase of protein-small molecule binding data

Abstract BindingDB (bindingdb.org) is a public, web-accessible database of experimentally measured binding affinities between small molecules and proteins, which supports diverse applications including medicinal chemistry, biochemical pathway annotation, training of artificial intelligence models and computational chemistry methods development. This update reports significant growth and enhancements since our last review in 2016. Of note, the database now contains 2.9 million binding measurements spanning 1.3 million compounds and thousands of protein targets. This growth is largely attributable to our unique focus on curating data from US patents, which has yielded a substantial influx of novel binding data. Recent improvements include a remake of the website following responsive web design principles, enhanced search and filtering capabilities, new data download options and webservices and establishment of a long-term data archive replicated across dispersed sites. We also discuss BindingDB’s positioning relative to related resources, its open data sharing policies, insights gleaned from the dataset and plans for future growth and development.

Phonon spectrum in the spin-Peierls phase of CuGeO 3

CuGeO 3 has long been studied as a prototypical example of the spin-Peierls transition in a 𝑆 = 1/2 Heisenberg chain. Despite intensive investigation of this quasi-one-dimensional material, systematic measurements and calculations of the phonon excitations in the dimerized phase have not to date been possible, leaving certain aspects of the spin-Peierls phenomenon unresolved. We perform state-of-the-art density functional theory (DFT) calculations to compute the electronic structure and phonon dynamics in the low-temperature dimerized phase. We also perform high-resolution neutron spectroscopy to measure the full phonon spectrum over multiple Brillouin zones. We find excellent agreement between our numerical and experimental results that extend to all measurement temperatures. Notable features of our phonon spectra include a number of steeply dispersive modes, nonmonotonic dispersion features, and specific phonon anticrossings, which we relate to the mode eigenvectors. By calculating the magnetic interactions within DFT and studying the effects of different phonon modes on the superexchange paths, we discuss the possibility of observing spin-phonon hybridization effects in experiments performed both in and out of equilibrium.

Following the Higgs mode across the BCS-BEC crossover in two dimensions

Although substantial effort has been dedicated to analyzing the Higgs (amplitude) mode in superconducting systems, there are relatively few studies of the Higgs peak's dispersion and width, quantities which are observable in spectroscopic measurements. These properties can be obtained from the location of the pole of the amplitude (Higgs) susceptibility in the lower half plane of complex frequency. We analyze the behavior of the Higgs mode in a two-dimensional neutral fermionic superfluid at T = 0 throughout the crossover from Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer (BCS) to Bose-Einstein condensation (BEC) behavior. Here, this occurs when the dressed chemical potential μ changes sign from positive to negative. For μ > 0, we find a pole in the Higgs susceptibility in the lower half plane of frequency and demonstrate that it leads to a well-defined peak in spectroscopic probes. For μ < 0, the pole still exists but is “hidden,” not giving rise to a peak in spectroscopic probes. Extending this analysis to a charged superconductor, we find that the Higgs mode is unaffected by the long-range Coulomb interaction.

Design of an amplitude-splitting hard x-ray delay line with subnanoradian stability

We propose the design and analysis of a hard x-ray split-delay optical arrangement that combines diffractive and crystal optics. Transmission gratings are employed to achieve the much-desired amplitude splitting and recombination of the beam. Asymmetric channel-cut crystals are utilized to tune the relative delay time. The use of a dispersion-compensation arrangement of the crystals allows the system to achieve subnanoradian pointing stability during a delay scan. It further minimizes wavefront distortion and preserves the pulse front and pulse duration. We analyze the performance of a prototype design that can cover a delay time range of 15 ps with a sub-20 fs time resolution at 10 keV. We anticipate that this system can fully satisfy the very demanding stability requirements for performing split-pulse x-ray photon correlation spectroscopy measurements for the investigation of fast atomic scale dynamics in complex disordered matter.

Measurement and Control of Beam Energy at the Fermilab 400 MeV Transfer Line

Linac is the first machine in the Accelerator chain at Fermilab where particles are accelerated from 35 keV to 400 MeV and travel to the Booster where they are stripped of the extra electrons to become protons. Tuning Linac is performed using diagnostics to ensure stable intensity and energy while minimizing uncontrolled particle loss. I have been revisiting diagnostics in the Linac in order to understand their signals and to ensure their data is reliable. I revisited Beam Loss Monitors (BLMs) for the loss data confidence. For the confidence of energy data there were two approaches. The first approach was time-of-flight measurements using Beam Position Monitors (BPMs) and beam velocity stripline pick-up that provides beam phase data. The second approach used the relation between beam position data from BPMs and dispersion values from MAD-X simulation to calculate energy. Our goal after understanding the data from the Linac diagnostics and finding the data reliable is to control the L inac parameters using Machine Learning techniques to increase the reliability and quality of beam delivered from Linac.

The Multi-Phase Circumgalactic Medium of DESI Emission-Line Galaxies at z~1.5

We study the multi-phase circumgalactic medium (CGM) of emission line galaxies (ELGs) at $z\sim1.5$, traced by MgII$\lambda2796$, $\lambda2803$ and CIV$\lambda1548$, $\lambda1550$ absorption lines, using approximately 7,000 ELG-quasar pairs from the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument. Our results show that both the mean rest equivalent width ($W_{0}$) profiles and covering fractions of MgII and CIV increase with ELG stellar mass at similar impact parameters, but show similar distributions when normalized by the virial radius. Moreover, warm CIV gas has a more extended distribution than cool MgII gas. The dispersion of MgII and CIV gas velocity offsets relative to the galaxy redshifts rises from $\sim100 \, \rm km \, s^{-1}$ within halos to $\sim 200 \, \rm km \, s^{-1}$ beyond. We explore the relationships between MgII and CIV $W_{0}$ and show that the two are not tightly coupled: at a fixed absorption strength of one species, the other varies by several-fold, indicating distinct kinematics between the gas phases traced by each. We measure the line ratios, FeII/MgII and CIV/MgII, of strong MgII absorbers and find that at $<0.2$ virial radius, the FeII/MgII ratio is elevated, while the CIV/MgII ratio is suppressed compared with the measurements on larger scales, both with $\sim4-5\, σ$ significance. We argue that multiphase gas that is not co-spatial is required to explain the observational results. Finally, by combining with measurements from the literature, we investigate the redshift evolution of CGM properties and estimate the neutral hydrogen, metal, and dust masses in the CGM of DESI ELGs -- found to be comparable to those in the ISM.
