Pressure-induced phase transitions in Ni-bearing ferrosilite (Ni-En31Fs65)

Abstract Orthopyroxene is an abundant mineral in subducting slabs. Studying its phase transitions at high pressure is important to the understanding of mineralogy of subducting slabs in the deep Earth. Synchrotron-based single-crystal X-ray diffraction experiments were conducted on a synthetic Ni-bearing ferrosilite (Ni-En31Fs65) at pressures up to 33.8 GPa. Three phase transitions were observed at 12.1(6), 15.6(6), and 31.3(25) GPa. The first two phase transitions in Ni-En31Fs65 resemble the previously described phase transitions in Ni-free Fe-rich orthopyroxenes, i.e., the initial α-opx (Pbca) transforms to β-opx (P21/c), then the latter transforms to γ-opx (Pbca). This indicates that the incorporation of a few mol% NiSiO3 does not influence the phase transition path of Fe-rich orthopyroxene. After the third phase transition, the structure (P21ca) of Ni-En31Fs65 resembles the previously reported β-popx observed in En90 at high pressure, although the onset pressure of the phase transition in Ni-En31Fs65 is ~7 GPa lower than that in En90. β-popx has a post-pyroxene structure that contains fivefold- and sixfold-coordinated Si cations. Our results indicate that the post-pyroxene structure is β-popx (P21ca) for either Fe-poor or Fe-rich orthopyroxenes, although the phase transition path before the pyroxene → post-pyroxene is compositionally dependent. Additionally, unlike the second and third transitions, whose onset pressures are monotonously decreased by increasing Fe content, the Fe effect on shifting the first transition is much more significant for orthopyroxenes within En <50 mol% than that within En >50 mol%.

Navigating collinear superspace

We introduce a new set of effective field theory rules for constructing Lagrangians with \( \mathcal{N} \) = 1 supersymmetry in collinear superspace. In the standard superspace treatment, superfields are functions of the coordinates \( \left({x}^{\mu },{\theta}^{\alpha },{\theta}^{\dagger \overset{\cdot }{\alpha }}\right) \) , and supersymmetry preservation is manifest at the Lagrangian level in part due to the inclusion of auxiliary F - and D -term components. By contrast, collinear superspace depends on a smaller set of coordinates ( x μ , η , η † ), where η is a complex Grassmann number without a spinor index. This provides a formulation of supersymmetric theories that depends exclusively on propagating degrees of freedom, at the expense of obscuring Lorentz invariance and introducing inverse momentum scales. After establishing the general framework, we construct collinear superspace Lagrangians for free chiral matter and non-Abelian gauge fields. For the latter construction, an important ingredient is a superfield representation that is simultaneously chiral, anti-chiral, and real; this novel object encodes residual gauge transformations on the light cone. Additionally, we discuss a fundamental obstruction to constructing inter- acting theories with chiral matter; overcoming these issues is the subject of our companion paper, where we introduce a larger set of superfields to realize the full range of interactions compatible with \( \mathcal{N} \) = 1. Along the way, we provide a novel framing of reparametrization invariance using a spinor decomposition, which provides insight into this important light-cone symmetry.

Strain-Induced asymmetry and on-site dynamics of silicon defects in graphene

In the last decade, the atomically-focused electron beams utilized in scanning transmission electron microscopes (STEMs) have been shown to induce a broad set of local structural transformations in materials, opening pathways for directing material synthesis and modification atom-by-atom. The mechanisms underlying these transformations remain largely unknown, due to the intractability of modeling the myriad of reaction pathways that can be accessed through high-energy electron scattering. The information on materials’ structure and dynamics that can be extracted from STEM images is similarly left underexplored. Here, we report the observation of anomalous on-site dynamics of individual silicon impurity atoms in graphene during STEM imaging. Density functional theory-based structural optimizations of anisotropically-strained molecular nanographenes reveal two distinct (but nearly degenerate) stable structures for four-fold coordinated silicon impurities, where interconversion between the two structures manifests slight changes of the silicon position within the lattice site. Implications for defect-based strain engineering in graphene are discussed.

Cynipid wasps systematically reprogram host metabolism and restructure cell walls in developing galls

Many insects have evolved the ability to manipulate plant growth to generate extraordinary structures called galls, in which insect larva can develop while being sheltered and feeding on the plant. In particular, cynipid (Hymenoptera: Cynipidae) wasps have evolved to form morphologically complex galls and generate an astonishing array of gall shapes, colors, and sizes. However, the biochemical basis underlying these remarkable cellular and developmental transformations remains poorly understood. A key determinant in plant cellular development is cell wall deposition that dictates the physical form and physiological function of newly developing cells, tissues, and organs. However, it is unclear to what degree cell walls are restructured to initiate and support the formation of new gall tissue. Here, we characterize the molecular alterations underlying gall development using a combination of metabolomic, histological, and biochemical techniques to elucidate how valley oak (Quercus lobata) leaf cells are reprogrammed to form galls. Strikingly, gall development involves an exceptionally coordinated spatial deposition of lignin and xylan to form de novo gall vasculature. Our results highlight how cynipid wasps can radically change the metabolite profile and restructure the cell wall to enable the formation of galls, providing insights into the mechanism of gall induction and the extent to which plants can be entirely reprogrammed to form unique structures and organs.

Ion-Specific Precipitation of Extractants Enables Rare-Earth Separation and Wastewater Remediation from Solvent Extraction of Critical Elements

The increasing demand for rare-earth elements (REEs) necessitates sustainable recovery strategies, particularly from secondary sources, such as electronic waste. Solvent extraction is the primary industrial method for REE separation; however, the unintentional dissolution of extractants into wastewater poses serious environmental risks, leading to organic contamination and process inefficiencies. Existing wastewater treatment methods struggle to remove these persistent pollutants, underscoring the need for innovative recovery approaches. Herein, we present a ligand-mediated precipitation strategy that simultaneously recovers REEs and removes dissolved extractants from solvent extraction wastewater. We show that residual extractants in the aqueous phase can selectively bind REEs, inducing their precipitation while leaving transition metals in solution. By integrating FTIR spectroscopy, EDS, XPS, EXAFS, and SAXS, we elucidate the mechanism of ion-specific precipitation and the local coordination environment of metal ions in the precipitate. Importantly, we demonstrate that the precipitated extractants can be efficiently recovered and reused, providing a closed-loop solution that enhances sustainability. Applying this method to leachates from samarium–cobalt (Sm–Co) and neodymium–iron–boron (NdFeB) mixed magnets, we achieve highly selective REE precipitation under mild conditions, demonstrating a scalable and cost-effective pathway for REE recovery, wastewater purification, and extractant recycling. In conclusion, by integrating element-specific ligand-mediated precipitation with extractant reuse, this work offers a transformative approach to REE separation that reduces the environmental impact while improving resource efficiency.

Advanced LiFSI-LiPF6 Electrolyte for Wide-Temperature and Thermally Stable Lithium-Ion Batteries

A new optimized LiFSI–LiPF6 dual-salt controlled-solvation electrolyte (E-DS) is demonstrated to enable practical graphite||LiNi0.8Mn0.1Co0.1O2 cells (˜4.0 mAh cm?²) to achieve exceptional performance and safety under extreme conditions. By optimizing anion coordination with the smaller, more dissociating FSI? anion, the E-DS forms ultrathin, dense, and inorganic-rich electrode/electrolyte interphases that dramatically suppress solvent decomposition, transition-metal dissolution, and surface reconstruction compared to the conventional LiPF6/carbonate electrolyte. Consequently, E-DS cells deliver >78% capacity retention after 300 cycles at 60 °C, retain fast discharging capacity at 30 °C, and operate effectively at -20 °C. Most strikingly, fully charged full cells with E-DS, even under overcharging to 4.8 V, show a lower heat evolution in stable formulations — transforming a traditionally unstable high-voltage/high-temperature configuration into an intrinsically safe state. This work establishes a new benchmark for carbonate-containing electrolytes, simultaneously achieving high energy density, fast-discharging capability, wide-temperature operation (-20 to 60 °C), and outstanding thermal safety in nickel-rich lithium-ion batteries.

Atomically dispersed palladium catalyses Suzuki–Miyaura reactions under phosphine-free conditions

Single-atom catalysts have emerged as a new frontier in catalysis science. However, their applications are still limited to small molecule activations in the gas phase, the classic organic transformations catalyzed by single-atom catalysts are still rare. Here, we report the use of a single-atom Pd catalyst for the classic Suzuki–Miyaura carbon–carbon coupling reaction under phosphine-free and open-air conditions at room temperature. The single-atom Pd catalyst is prepared through anchoring Pd on bimetal oxides (Pd-ZnO-ZrO 2 ). The significant synergetic effect of ZnO and ZrO 2 is observed. The catalyst exhibits high activity and tolerance of a wide scope of substrates. Characterization demonstrates that Pd single atoms are coordinated with two oxygen atoms in Pd-ZnO-ZrO 2 catalyst. The catalyst can be fabricated on a multi-gram scale using a simple in situ co-precipitation method, which endows this catalytic system with great potential in practical applications.

Strategies for community-sourced biocuration in bioinformatics: a case study on MIBiG 4.0

Biocuration is essential to transform molecular sequence data into standardized, machine-readable resources. Such curated datasets enable comparative analysis, predictive modeling, and data integration across bioinformatics platforms. While professional biocuration is resource-intensive and usually limited to institutional settings, community-driven approaches can mobilize large-scale annotation of specialized datasets and are more resilient to disruptions in scientific funding. Here, we present a model for community-powered curation applied to the Minimum Information about a Biosynthetic Gene Cluster (MIBiG) repository. Through a framework of workflows for metadata capture, annotation validation, and contributor coordination, the MIBiG 4.0 initiative recruited 267 scientists across 178 institutions from 33 countries, volunteering an estimated 4000 h of work. These efforts expanded the MIBiG repository by 22% and enhanced its usability in downstream molecular data analyses in comparative genomic analyses, natural product discovery, and machine learning applications. We provide strategies and actionable lessons for adopting this model, supporting the sustainability of curated bioinformatics resources central to nucleic acid research and related fields.

Catalytic Carbodiimide Guanylation by a Nucleophilic, High Spin Iron(II) Imido Complex

Reduction of the three-coordinate iron(III) imido [Ph 2 B( t BuIm) 2 Fe=NDipp] (1) affords [Ph 2 B( t BuIm) 2 Fe=NDipp][K(18-C-6)THF 2 ] (2), a rare example of a high-spin (S = 2) iron(II) imido complex. Unusually for a late metal imido complex, the imido ligand in 2 has nucleophilic character, as demonstrated by the reaction with DippNH 2 , which establishes an equilibrium with the bis(anilido) complex [Ph 2 B( t BuIm) 2 Fe(NHDipp) 2 ][K(18-C-6)THF 2 ] (3). In an unusual transformation, formal insertion of i PrN=C=N i Pr into the Fe=N(imido) bond yields the guanidinate [Ph 2 B( t BuIm) 2 Fe( i PrN) 2 CNDipp][K(18-C-6)THF 2 ] (4). Here, reaction of 4 with excess DippNH 2 provides 3, along with the guanidine ( i PrNH) 2 C=NDipp. As suggested by these stoichiometric reactions, 2 is an efficient catalyst for the guanylation of carbodiimides, converting a wide range of aniline substrates under mild conditions.

Promoting Atomically Dispersed MnN 4 Sites via Sulfur Doping for Oxygen Reduction: Unveiling Intrinsic Activity and Degradation in Fuel Cells

Carbon supported and nitrogen coordinated single Mn site catalysts (Mn-N-C) catalysts are the most desirable platinum group metal (PGM)-free cathode catalysts for proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs) due to their insignificant Fenton reactions (vs. Fe), earth abundances (vs. Co) and encouraging activity and stability. However, current Mn-N-C catalysts suffer from high over-potential due to low intrinsic activity and less dense MnN 4 sites. Herein, we present sulfur-doped Mn-N-C catalyst (Mn-N-C-S) synthesized through an effective adsorption-pyrolysis process. Using electron microscopy and X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) techniques, we verify the uniform dispersion of MnN 4 sites and confirm the effect of S doping on the Mn-N coordination. The Mn-N-C-S catalyst exhibits a favorable oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) activity in acidic media relative to the S-free Mn-N-C catalyst. The corresponding membrane electrode assembly (MEA) generated a remarkable performance with a peak power density of 500 mW cm -2 under a realistic H 2 /air environment. The constant voltage tests of fuel cells confirm the much-enhanced stability of the Mn-N-C-S catalyst compared to the Fe-N-C and Fe-N-C-S catalysts. The electron microscopy and Fourier transform XAS analysis provide insights into catalyst degradation associated with Mn oxidation and agglomeration. The theoretical calculation elucidates that the promoted ORR activity is mainly attributed to the spatial effect stemmed from the repulsive interaction between the ORR intermediates and adjacent S do-pants.

Implementation of a Mesh refinement algorithm into the quasi-static PIC code QuickPIC

Plasma-based acceleration (PBA) has emerged as a promising candidate for the accelerator technology used to build a future linear collider and/or an advanced light source. In PBA, a trailing or witness particle beam is accelerated in the plasma wave wakefield (WF) created by a laser or particle beam driver. The WF is often nonlinear and involves the crossing of plasma particle trajectories in real space and thus particle-in-cell methods are used. The distance over which the drive beam evolves is several orders of magnitude larger than the wake wavelength. This large disparity in length scales is amenable to the quasi-static approach. Three-dimensional (3D), quasi-static (QS), particle-in-cell (PIC) codes, e.g., QuickPIC, have been shown to provide high fidelity simulation capability with 2-4 orders of magnitude speedup over 3D fully explicit PIC codes. In PBA, the witness beam needs to be matched to the focusing forces of the WF to reduce the emittance growth. In some linear collider designs, the matched spot size of the witness beam can be 2 to 3 orders of magnitude smaller than the spot size (and wavelength) of the wakefield. Such an additional disparity in length scales is ideal for mesh refinement where the WF within the witness beam is described on a finer mesh than the rest of the WF. A mesh refinement scheme is described that has been implemented into the 3D QS PIC code, QuickPIC. Very fine (high) resolution is used in a small spatial region that includes the witness beam and progressively coarser resolutions in the rest of the simulation domain. A fast multigrid Poisson solver has been implemented for the field solve on the refined meshes and a Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) based Poisson solver is used for the coarse mesh. The code has been parallelized with both MPI and OpenMP, and the parallel scalability has also been improved by using pipelining. A preliminary adaptive mesh refinement technique is described to optimize the computational time for simulations with an evolving witness beam size. Several test problems are used to verify that the mesh refinement algorithm provides accurate results. Additionally, the results are benchmarked against highly resolved simulations exhibiting near-azimuthal symmetry, performed using QPAD—a novel hybrid QS PIC code that uses a PIC description in the coordinates (r, ct – z) and a gridless description in the azimuthal angle, Φ.

Aromatic heterobicycle-fused porphyrins: impact on aromaticity and excited state electron transfer leading to long-lived charge separation

A new synthetic method to fuse benzo[4,5]imidazo[2,1-a]isoindole to the porphyrin periphery at the β,β-positions has been developed, and its impact on the aromaticity and electronic structures is investigated. Reactivity investigation of the fused benzoimidazo-isoindole component reveals fluorescence quenching of a zinc porphyrin (AMIm-2) upon treatment with a Brønsted acid. The reaction of the zinc porphyrin (AMIm-2) with methyl iodide initiated a new organic transformation, resulting in the ring-opening of isoindole with the formation of an aldehyde and dimethylation of the benzoimidazo component. The fused benzoimidazo-isoindole component acted as a good ligand to bind platinum(II), forming novel homobimetallic and heterobimetallic porphyrin complexes. The fusion of benzoimidazo-isoindole on the porphyrin ring resulted in bathochromically shifted absorptions and emissions, reflecting the extended conjugation of the porphyrin π-system. Time-resolved emission and transient absorption spectroscopy revealed stable excited state species of the benzoimidazo-isoindole fused porphyrins. Zinc porphyrin AMIm-2 promoted excited state electron transfer upon coordinating with an electron acceptor, C60, generating a long-lived charge-separated state, in the order of 37.4 μs. The formation of the exceptionally long-lived charge-separated state is attributed to the involvement of both singlet and triplet excited states of AMIm-2, which is rarely reported in porphyrins.

Synthesis of Correct Digital Controller Models from Specifications by Model Transformation (21-0320)

The design of high consequence controllers (in weapons systems, autonomy, etc.) that do what they are supposed to do is a significant challenge. Testing simply does not come close to meeting the requirements for assurance. Today circuit designers at Sandia (and elsewhere) typically capture the core behavior of their components using state models in tools such as STATEFLOW. They then check that their models meet certain requirements (e.g. “The system bus must not deadlock” or “both traffic lights at an intersection must not be green at the same time”) using tools called model checkers. If the model checker returns “yes” then the property is guaranteed to be satisfied by the model. However, there are several drawbacks to this industry practice: (1) there is a lot of detail to get right, this is particularly challenging when there are multiple components requiring complex coordination (2) any errors returned by the model checker have to be traced back through the design and fixed, necessitating rework, (3) there are severe scalability problems with this approach, particularly when dealing with concurrency. All this places high demands on the designers who now face not only an accelerated schedule but also controllers of increasing complexity. This report describes a new and fundamentally different approach to the construction of safety-critical digital controllers. Instead of directly constructing a complete model and then trying to verify it, the designer can start with an initial abstract (think “sketch”) model plus the requirements, from which a correct concrete model is automatically synthesized. There is no need for post-hoc verification of required functional properties. Having tool to carry this out will significantly impact the nation’s ability to ensure the safety of high-consequence digital systems. The approach has been implemented in a prototype tool, along with a suite of examples, including ones that reflect actual problems faced by designers. Our approach operates on a variant of Statecharts developed at Sandia called Qspecs. Statecharts are a widely used formalism for developing concurrent reactive systems, supporting scalability through allowing state models containing composite states, which are the serial or parallel composition of substates which can themselves contain statecharts. Statecharts enable an incremental style of development, in which states are progressively refined to incorporate greater detail in an incremental model of software development. Our approach formulates a set of constraints from the structure of the models and the requirements and propagates these constraints to a fixpoint. The solution to the constraints is an inductive invariant along with guards on the transitions. We also show how our approach extends to implementation refinement, decomposition, composition, and elaboration. We currently handle safety requirements written in LTL (Linear Temporal Logic)

FIU Project 2: Environmental Remediation Science & Technology [Slides]

FIU’s research under this project involves conducting basic and applied science to fill knowledge gaps and validate potential remediation technologies for contaminated soil and groundwater and the assessment of the fate and transport of contaminants in the environment. The aim of FIU’s research is to reduce the potential for contaminant mobility or toxicity in the surface and subsurface through the development and application of state-of-the-art scientific and environmental remediation technologies at the Hanford Site, Savannah River Site (SRS), and the Waste Isolation Pilot Plant (WIPP), which is the Nation’s only mined geologic repository for permanent disposal of transuranic waste. FIU collaborates with scientists from Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL), Savannah River National Laboratory (SRNL), Savannah River Ecology Laboratory (SREL), Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL) and the DOE Carlsbad Field Office (CBFO) in order to plan and execute research that is synergistic with the work being conducted at the sites, and that supports the resolution of critical science and engineering needs which leads to a better understanding of the long-term behavior of subsurface contaminants. The knowledge gained through this research will be used to transform experimental and modeling innovations into practical applications deployed at the sites to support EM’s primary goal of expediting the closure of major contaminated soil and groundwater sites and waste units. Collaborative relationships between FIU and the national laboratories have provided large benefits over the years to FIU, the national laboratories, the DOE complex, and the DOE EM mission. By working closely with the national laboratories, FIU’s research is not only closely aligned with the cleanup mission priorities at the DOE sites, but complements and supports ongoing work at the national laboratories for screening of new remedial technologies. This coordination and leveraging of research efforts results in time- and cost-savings, and will accelerate progress of the DOE EM environmental restoration mission.

Loss of Glen Canyon Dam Hydropower Plant Capabilities

The power grid in the western United States is undergoing a major transformation, driven by technological advancements, power markets, policy shifts, and evolving energy demands. The integration of variable renewable energy (VRE) resources, such as wind and solar, into the power grid has become a major driver of change. Between 2018 and 2023, about 19 gigawatts (GW) of new solar capacity and 14 GW of new wind capacity was built in the Western Interconnection (WI) region. These two VRE resources accounted for the majority of WI capacity additions. The Western Interconnection is expected to host 30 GW of wind, 40 GW of solar, and 14 GW of energy storage by 2030 (Western Electricity Coordinating Council n.d.).

An MLCommons Scientific Benchmarks Ontology

Scientific machine learning research spans diverse domains and data modalities, yet existing benchmark efforts remain siloed and lack standardization. This makes novel and transformative applications of machine learning to critical scientific use-cases more fragmented and less clear in pathways to impact. This paper introduces an ontology for scientific benchmarking developed through a unified, community-driven effort that extends the MLCommons ecosystem to cover physics, chemistry, materials science, biology, climate science, and more. Building on prior initiatives such as XAI-BENCH, FastML Science Benchmarks, PDEBench, and the SciMLBench framework, our effort consolidates a large set of disparate benchmarks and frameworks into a single taxonomy of scientific, application, and system-level benchmarks. New benchmarks can be added through an open submission workflow coordinated by the MLCommons Science Working Group and evaluated against a six-category rating rubric that promotes and identifies high-quality benchmarks, enabling stakeholders to select benchmarks that meet their specific needs. The architecture is extensible, supporting future scientific and AI/ML motifs, and we discuss methods for identifying emerging computing patterns for unique scientific workloads. The MLCommons Science Benchmarks Ontology provides a standardized, scalable foundation for reproducible, cross-domain benchmarking in scientific machine learning. A companion webpage for this work has also been developed as the effort evolves: https://mlcommons-science.github.io/benchmark/

Solid-State Synthesis of Highly Dispersed Nitrogen-Coordinated Single Iron Atom Electrocatalysts for Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cells

Fe–N–C with atomically dispersed Fe single atoms is the most promising candidate to replace platinum for the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) in fuel cells. However, the conventional synthesis procedures require quantities solvents and metal precursors, sluggish adsorption process, and tedious washing, resulting in limited metal doping and uneconomical for large-scale production. Here, for the first time, Fe 2 O 3 is adopted as the Fe precursor to derive abundant single Fe atoms dispersed on carbon surfaces. The Fe–N–C catalyst synthesized by this simple method shows an excellent ORR activity with half-wave potentials of 0.82 and 0.90 V in acidic and alkaline solutions, respectively. A single fuel cell with an optimized Fe–N–C cathode shows a high peak power density of 0.84 W cm –2 . The solid-state transformation synthesis method developed in this study may shed light on mass production of single-atom-based catalysts.
